Metal treatment specialist improves its production capacity using the Finex Separator. The process now only requires one operator instead of two Helping a range of industries to prevent wear and tear to their component parts, Chromin Maastricht BV specializes in chrome diffusion. By using chromium powder, they create a chrome plating layer over the component part, making it resistant to abrasion and adhesion. This is particularly useful for parts such as plungers, bearing bushes and ball valves. To achieve chrome diffusion, the company needs to bake component parts in a heat-resistant container with the chromium powder at temperatures of 800-1000 degrees Celsius. When this process is completed, excess chromium powder usually remains on the component part which previously required a hand sieve to clean the parts. As a better alternative to this time-consuming practice, Chromin integrated a 40” Finex Separator™ into their production line to remove excess powder while allowing it to be recovered for reuse. As well as increasing capacity from 20 to 40 containers per day, the process now only requires

Safeguarding quality and screening accuracy with the Russell Compact Sieve When safeguarding quality and screening accuracy, the Russell Compact Sieve – a high-capacity vibratory screener - is the most efficient and hygienic solution With an increase in regulations and quality standards, manufacturers are having to review their processes, and seek new ways to optimize production. This means a change of approach in the way a factory operates, from how people work or how stock and space are utilized, to the introduction of alternative technologies. These changes lead to improved product quality, efficiency of production, reduced costs and compliance with environmental standards. Choosing the correct sieving or screening machine is fundamental in ensuring that the product is processed efficiently and to the highest possible quality. There are numerous technologies available, however rotary sifters have commonly been used to remove oversized contamination from good product, particularly for raw ingredients in the food industry. This is

Our sieves and screeners are normally part of a bigger processing line and are therefore usually connected to processes either before or after our equipment. With the correct flexible our sieves will fit seamlessly into a process. However, when a flexible is incorrectly fitted problems can occur. A common problem is caused when fitting certain flexibles which restrict both vertical and/or horizontal movement of the machine. This puts undue tension on the outlet that overtime can cause the outlet and/or flexible to break. Restricting sieves in this way may also reduce the sieving accuracy as this may alter the dynamic forces being passed through the sieve. It is easy to check if the wrong type of flexible is used as it will transmit vibration to the item to which it is connected. This should not be the case since the sieve should be isolated via the flexible connectors. We generally recommend convoluted flexibles which allows the vibratory sieve to move in all directions.

Russell Finex explore the most popular ways of conveying product to and from sieves Screw conveyor The screw conveyor is commonly used to move semi solid materials such as food ingredients and dry powders from one part of the production process to another. As well as providing transportation the screw conveyor may also be used to control the flow rate of the material to and from sieves. As the conveyor is fully enclosed and therefore provides relatively dust free conveying it is typically used in the food, chemical and metallurgy industries. The screw conveyor is often used with the Russell Compact Sieve® Screw feeders The design of a screw feeder closely resembles that of a screw conveyor, but the main difference is that the screw feeder gives accurate controlled feeding. Screw feeders are used in all industries. They are often used with our Finex Separator™ as they feed product at a constant rate which is essential for grading. Vibratory feeders The vibratory feeder is somewhat similar to the screw feeder as like the screw feeder

The Blow Thru Sieve™ has been designed and certified for use in pneumatic conveying lines, enabling processors to screen and transport material simultaneously. Its development has come about as a result of a need to check-screen powder during dilute-phase positive pressure pneumatic conveying. The Blow Thru Sieve ensures that ingredients coming in or final products leaving a plant are free from contamination. By combining screening and transportation the sieve eliminates double handling, increasing efficiency. Its unique design allows the sieve to achieve phenomenal throughput rates, enabling processors to screen material as they load or unload tankers or silos without slowing the process.

This simple and easy to use sieve removes contamination from your powders. It improves the quality of your final products and safeguards your reputation. The Mini Sifter is perfect for sieving small batches of products in all industries e.g. bakeries, laboratories, start up companies and pilot plants. It improves the quality of your products, just fit a mesh size suitable for your powder and it will remove any oversized contamination. Simply unlock two clamps to release the product contact parts that can be cleaned in less than 5 minutes. This eliminates the risk of cross contamination between batches. The unit can be simply transported for use in different areas by one person. Very quiet operation, typically less than 65 dBA.

Adding a new dimension to screening technology Fine mesh separation and filtration specialists Russell Finex have introduced the new Compact Airlock Sieve, adding a new dimension to screening technology. This new Compact Airlock Sieve is the first real advance in sieving technology, with its validatable pneumatic clamping system giving large improvements in product containment and operator health and safety.

The unit also complies with the new ATEX legislation in Europe. The operation of the Compact Airlock Sieve is simple but very effective. Oversize contamination is accurately removed by the mesh screen fitted to the unit, while the good product passes through the mesh and on to the next stage of production. Clean down times are reduced, as the sieve is simple to disassemble in seconds without the need for tools. Crevice free and smooth surfaces

Improving your product quality The new Vibrasonic Spiroscreen introduced by Russell Finex, enables powders to be sieved on finer meshes with more accuracy than ever before. This increases the value of the screened powders as well as improving the quality of the final products they are used to produce. The Russell Vibrasonic Spiroscreen achieves these improvements by eliminating mesh blinding for a wide range of difficult to screen materials including, light and sticky powders. Benefits : Sieving capacities increase because all the apertures remain clear and powder can pass through them. Downtime is reduced as there is no need to stop the production process to clean the mesh. Eliminating blinding also reduces production costs. Accurately screening powders in one pass maximises sieving capacity thereby preventing the need to re-size good product. This shortens production time and increases yields, both saving money. The Vibrasonic system is easy to fit to an existing sieve or screener, even
