New pressure-resistant GKM screening machine KTS-VP2 600 for control screening in pneumatic conveying streams The majority of raw materials from various industries exist in the form of powder or granules, these are generally stored in transport or storage silos. As it is possible for the raw materials to contain impurities, agglomerates, or tramp material the unfortunate consequences of this are them finding their way into the process flow which in turn results in a loss of production due to machine & system emptying and clean down. The implication of this being – product rejection/recalls at the point when the impurities reach the end product. The use of check sifters/sieves is an effective way to police the powders & ultimately prevent these issues from occurring. As the typical transfer of such raw materials between silos or the loading and unloading of trucks is carried out by pneumatic conveying this can create an overpressure in the conveying system, this is why a gravity screening machine cannot be used for this purpose. In order to ensure smooth conveying,

In the Corona crisis, GKM is breaking new ground and offering customers the opportunity to participate in virt Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the travel restrictions that apply as a result, GKM Siebtechnik organizes its daily business in virtual space. Since customers are currently not allowed to travel to the factory acceptance tests of their new screening machines in person, GKM Siebtechnik conducts the Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) virtually instead. Nothing has changed in the course of the FAT, except that the customer is not physically present. In accordance with the FAT protocol, all production and safety-relevant tests are carried out together with the customer at the machine and are transmitted live via webcam. Also appointments / arrangements with customers are carried out digitally in order to remain in contact with the customers despite the difficult situation.

Tumbler screening machine for exact classification and Vibration control Screener for absolute product safety To produce very precise grain sizes within tight tolerances and special sugar types, the GKM tumbler screening machine is increasingly finding its way into sugar factories for a wide range of applications (fineness, throughput capacities, etc.). Depending on the requirements, the tumbler screening machines are equipped with up to six screen decks.During screening, the sugar is fed through the central inlet nozzle. Using the three-dimensional motion of the machine, the sugar is distributed evenly and spirally from the inside to the outside of the screen surface. Typical separation cuts for fractionations are between 2.0mm and 0.20mm. The throughput rates here vary from 10t/h to 50 t/h depending on the required grain size. In order to ensure the quality of the end product, e.g. when loading lorries or emptying silos, and to be able to comply with the highest food standards, the oversize particles or sugar nodes and impurities must be separated from the sugar. The GKM

Optical Screen Control and thorough Screen Cleaning of Control Screening Machines with just one push of a Butt Screen exchange, checking and cleaning has never been faster, easier and safer than with the latest GKM innovation. The KTS-VS2 control screening machine is equipped with a pneumatic deck lifting system consisting of two pneumatic cylinders including a hand lever for lifting and lowering. In addition, our high-performance KTS-VS2 has Quick-Clamps for quick opening and closing. This means that all work can be carried out by just one operator in less than a minute. Since the cylinders are firmly attached to the machine, no additional space is required and downtimes, especially when changing screens and batches, are reduced to a minimum. Productivity & performance is increased as much as possible. The central infeed and fine material outlet also ensure a fast product flow with a minimum of dwell time and thus enables high throughput rates. The system can be used for machine sizes from 600 to 800 in a wide range of industries and application areas.

Ideal solution for little feed quantities or small batches Due to the sustained high demand for the screening machine type KTS-VS2, the models KTS-VS2 600 and KTS-VS2 800 complement the GKM`s established range and KTS-VS2 series models. These additional machine sizes provide the ideal solution for little feed quantities or small batches. The KTS-VS2 Control Screening Machine removes oversize or foreign contaminants from your final product. It is the optimum solution for control- and safety screening of powders and liquids. The KTS-VS2 is easy to integrate into production lines and ensures high throughput rates via central product in- and outlet. The KTS-VS2 is extremely flexible and is outstandingly suitable for meeting sector-specific requirements and the demands. The KTS-VS2 series are conceived for the most demanding applications in the pharma & food sectors like the screening of milk powder. Another typical application is the control screening of powder coatings where quick disassembly and easy cleaning is extremely important.

- New pneumatic Multi-Deck Lifting System - The current version of the pneumatic deck lifting system installed in tumbler screening machines, allows screen inserts to be changed one at a time. When used with multi-deck screening machines each deck has to be raised and changed separately. This is time and labour intensive, depending on the number of screen inserts to be changed. In order minimise downtime, GKM Siebtechnik has developed a new pneumatic multi-deck lifting system allowing multiple deck lifting and exchange in a single operation. By means of the pneumatic cylinders, all screening decks can be lifted simultaneously.

Typ KTS-VS2 The GKM Vibrating Control Screening machine KTS-VS2 has been specially adapted to the needs of the food and pharmaceutical industries and meets the highest hygiene standards. The central product in- and outlet connections enable high throughput while the modular design and the quick-clamp system ensure easy handling. The machine can be equipped with external pneumatic deck lifters and this system guarantees fast screen exchange and reduces set-up and downtimes. Using overhead pneumatic cylinders, individual screening decks can be raised for inspection or to change the screen inserts. Do you want to achieve higher screening throughput? By equipping the machine with the GKM Ultra-Vario-Sonic Cleaning system the machine performance can be significantly increased particularly for screen inserts with mesh sizes below 3,0 mm and for dry and fre-flowing products. The ultrasonic cleaning system is mounted on the outside of the machine, making it particularly suitable for

Order, Cleanliness and Safety Your benefits at a glance: - Protection against dirt and contamination after cleaning the sieves - Easily movable mobile frame - Suitable for all sieve sizes of all manufacturers - The Sieves are safely stored and will not be destroyed unintentionally - Sieve rack can be locked if required - Lifting lugs on the cabinets allow easy transport by crane

in combination with ball cleaning system When using screening machines in a production process, efficient and exact screening is very important for the downstream processing steps. To achieve this, the mesh cloth used in the machine must not clog with the material to be screened. The blocking and clogging of the meshes is a common problem that occurs especially with difficult to screen and fine powders. This can lead to outages and production loss. To prevent this and to keep the mesh cloth clear, GKM Siebtechnik offers different cleaning systems depending on the characteristics of the product. A mechanical and economical process is the ball cleaning system. This involves the use of balls under the screen which knock against the mesh cloth and thereby displace particles that adhere. Another option for the cleaning of the mesh cloth is the use of an Ultra-Vario-Sonic System. This system delivers a much more efficient sieving action especially with very fine mesh sizes. The throughput rate increases significantly

GKM Siebtechnik presents with the Ultra Vario Sonic System a new way of clean and efficient screening. This ultrasonic method is different because it is not operating with continuous resonance vibrations. The electronically controlled generator provides a permanently changing frequency through the transducer which is connected to a transducer ring on which the screen mesh is glued. This simple and patented system avoids the influence of permanently high resonance modes. They could be the reason for high temperatures (hot spots) and high stress to the transducer ring, its fixations to the screen frame and the mesh cloth. An innovation of GKM is the Ultrasonic product evacuation and dry cleaning of surfaces. This system prevents the sticking to the pipes of badly flowing bulk materials.
