The ideal system for preparing bulk material is a rotary sifter from Zeppelin Systems. It can be used as a pre-sifter before silos, a final sifter underneath feeding stations and vessels, or as an inline sifter for pressure-sealed operation at up to 0.8 bar overpressure or negative pressure in pneumatic conveying lines. The rotary sifter has been successfully used in the food industry for decades; as such, all parts that come into contact with the processed material are designed to ensure food quality and compliance with EHEDG guidelines and BG regulations, and are also very easy to clean. The design of the sifter drum also means that it can be easily inspected, cleaned, and if necessary replaced, via the inspection openings on the side of the sifter. The drum may be made from polyester or VA stainless steel. A slotted sifter drum is recommended for use in heavy-duty applications. Additional sealing rings maintain a seal between the sifter basket and product chamber. The sifter is used in the plastics and carbon black industry in a very similar way as in the food industry: For the removal of foreign bodies and verification of grain size. The mesh size of the sifter drum can be customized from 0.25 mm to 8 mm. The main benefit of this is in the continuous checking of raw material – in other words, the separation of coarse material and the loosening or breaking up of product lumps for better use of raw materials. The sifter also protects all sensitive downstream processing machines.
