Recycling plastics with the Sorticanter include: ► Reduced odor because of closed system ► No influence due to the color of the solids to be sorted ► Lower thermal energy consumption, since the dewatering phase is already built into each Sorticanter. ► Minimum personnel costs, creating operating cost savings  ► Separation of mixed substances that are unsuitable for static separation (fibers) This means that no mechanical dryer (screen centrifuge) is needed. ► Processing of particles possible that are smaller than 1 mm, so no impact from fans and other interfering effects ► A low-volume circulation system reduces the consumption of fresh water, while also reducing the wastewater quantity, since contaminants are largely separated out in the Sorticanter. With a Sorticanter, it is possible to process up to 1,000 lbs or 2,500 kg of solid per hour, depending on the composition of the raw materials.

In many aspects of process engineering, separators are used for mechanical separation and clarification of mixtures comprising solids and liquids. A separator is liquid-oriented and works with a higher rotation speed than a decanter. As a result, the generated centrifugal acceleration (g number) of a separator is significantly more powerful than in decanter centrifuges. Flottweg separators are suitable for separating ultrafine solid particles from a liquid (clarifier separator). Furthermore, Flottweg separators are suitable for separating mixtures of liquids with different densities at the same time as separating a solid (purifier). Flottweg AC separators (Automatic Cleaning) can be used in a wide range of applications, and are also available in various configurations. — Beverage and brewing industry — Starch industry — Chemicals and biotechnology — Extracting and processing fats and oils

Disc stack centrifuges are high-speed centrifuges for the mechanical separation and clarification of mixtures comprising solids and liquids. Due to their special design, disc stack centrifuges work at a very high rotation speed. As a result, the centrifugal acceleration (g-force) generated by a disc stack centrifuge is extremely powerful. Moreover, the discs included provide a large clarifying area. Thus, it is possible to separate ultrafine solid particles from a liquid and to separate liquid mixtures in an efficient way.

A decanter can be thought of as a settling basin that wraps around an axis. In the settling basin, the solid particles that are heavier than the liquid move to the bottom by gravity and form a sediment at the bottom of the basin. In the rotating drum of the centrifuge, the solid particles that are heavier than the liquid move outward by centrifugal force and form a sediment on the inner wall of the centrifuge drum. Since forces of about 3000 g occur in a centrifuge, as opposed to 1 g in the gravitational field, the separation of the solid particles from the liquid is much faster and more efficient.

Like all machine sizes in our C series, the C5E is also equipped with optimum wear protection. This reduces maintenance costs, as only wear parts need to be replaced. At the same time, this ensures a longer service life and high machine availability.

From algae harvesting to beer clarification and protein extraction: If you want to separate or purify liquids or remove ultra-fine particles you need strong and robust separators. Where decanter centrifuges reach their performance limits, the use of separators begins. Thanks to their high speeds, they are able to optimally process liquids. Clarifiers (2-phase separation), separate the finest solid particles from a liquid. As purification separators (3-phase separators), they separate liquid phases of different densities and simultaneously remove solids. Equipped with special features as the Flottweg Soft Shot® discharge system our products belong to the high qualitative products on the market.

Flottweg nozzle separators (2- and 3-phase nozzle separators) are used for the continuous separation of solids from liquids and ensure highly efficient clarification or separation. The product to be clarified or separated flows via a stationary inlet pipe into the inside of the bowl and is gently accelerated to operating speed by the distributor.

The COMPENSER® of the KL-series is an industrial shock absorber for light mechanical engineering, e.g. handling equipment, small storage and retrieval machines and small crane systems. Due to the low reset force of the compression spring, this buffer of the KL-series is well suited for operational push-in cycles at creep speed. Design & Function: The piston rod 2 pushes the piston 6 into the pressure chamber 7. At the same time, the damping medium flows through the metering grooves placed in the outer tube 8, via the piston 6 and into the volume balance chamber 5. The return spring 3 is tensioned and, after the impact has occurred, pushes the piston rod 2 back to the initial position. By this the damping medium flows back into the pressure chamber 7.
