Keskipakosiivilä

Keskipakosiivilä, also known as a centrifugal sieve or screen, is a type of industrial sieve that uses centrifugal force to separate particles from a liquid or gas. It is commonly employed in various industries, including food processing, pharmaceuticals, and chemical manufacturing, for applications such as dewatering, classification, and purification.

The fundamental principle of a keskipakosiivilä involves a rotating drum or basket lined with a sieve or screen. The mixture to be separated is fed into the rotating drum. As the drum spins at high speed, centrifugal force is generated, pushing the material outwards against the sieve. Smaller particles or liquids that can pass through the mesh of the sieve are discharged, while larger particles or solids are retained within the drum.

The design of a keskipakosiivilä can vary depending on the specific application. Some models may incorporate internal brushes or scrapers to continuously clean the sieve surface and prevent clogging, thereby improving efficiency and throughput. The size and aperture of the sieve mesh are critical parameters that determine the particle size distribution of the separated materials. The rotational speed of the drum is also a key factor influencing the separation efficiency. Keskipakosiivilät are valued for their ability to handle high volumes of material and their effectiveness in achieving precise separations.
