Sifter Screen; Efficient Separation of Fines and Unwanted Particles in Feed Production Lines
The Sifter Screen is a screening and separation equipment used in animal feed, poultry feed, and aquaculture feed production lines for separating fines and removing unwanted particles and production residues from the material flow. Using screening surfaces and controlled motion, the equipment separates materials based on particle size and can be designed and manufactured according to the material characteristics, production capacity, and specific requirements of the end user.
The Sifter Screen is available in capacities ranging from 5 to 40 tons per hour. The appropriate capacity depends on factors such as material characteristics, particle-size distribution, screen opening size, feed rate, and operating conditions. Therefore, the nominal capacity should be selected according to the actual process conditions.

Different Sifting Motions
One of the important factors affecting screening performance is the motion pattern of the screening surface. Depending on the equipment design and application, the screening motion can be circular, elliptical, or linear. Selecting the appropriate motion pattern, together with proper adjustment of operating parameters such as frequency and amplitude, can affect material movement across the screening surface, residence time, and the probability of particles passing through the screen openings.
The suspended design of the equipment helps reduce the transmission of operating vibrations to the plant structure. When properly designed, installed, and maintained, this configuration contributes to stable equipment operation and reduces the transmission of vibration to surrounding structures and equipment.
