The Application of Vibrating Screen in Food Industry

Vibrating screen is a highly efficient screening machinery used in food industry. It’s mainly used for high precision fine powder and other materials with its advantage of easy operation and fully enclosed structure.

It is also suitable for granular, powder, mucus and other materials screening and filtering classification，Such as powdered sugar, starch, salt, rice flour, milk powder, milk, egg, soy sauce, vinegar, fruit juice, papaya powder, green tea powder, kudzu powder, and potato processing production. Materials mentioned above are used frequently in daily life, vibrating screen will be our best assistant.

Take Starch or rice powder for example, In the first step, we usually remove the impurity of raw materials followed by screening and weighing; The next step includes soaking, coarse grinding, germ separation, fine grinding, screening of starch, protein separation, centrifugal dewatering and thermostatic drying, The last step includes weighing and product packing.

During these steps, we will have great difficulty in processing the food without the screening of vibrating screen. Vibrating screen has the superiority in easily screening fine material, and therefore bring us the food diversification and help to develop the entire food industry rapidly.

True Or False Vibrating Screen

With the rapid growth of economy, vibrating screener market is becoming more and more important, meanwhile, more vibrating screen manufactures emerge as the times require. The products’ quality are uneven of different manufactures. Vibrating screener with superior quality is perfect in workmanship, plate standard and no welding seam blind angle welding seam, etc. There are some of merchants sell seconds at best quality prices who sacrifice customers’ interests for their own benefits.

As far as vibrating screen is concerned, it mainly consists of carbon steel, stainless steel 304 and stainless steel 316L. The carbon steel vibrating screen is appropriate for non-corrosive materials, while stainless steel 304 is commonly used in chemical, food, pharmaceutical industry, etc. The stainless steel 316L is applied in special industry which required for high standard with high cost.

Vibrating screen can be judged through the texture of screen machine. The surface of 304 stainless steel is smooth, toughness, high plasticity, and mechanical strength. But the vibrating screen with poor quality presents unqualified welding, easy oxidation, and thus cut down the overall quality. Therefore, the users must choose formal manufacturers through careful identification .

In addition, Users are supposed to get ready for the products inspection selecting products with high quality, safety performance, and great strength. Taking the price of the products into consideration. After all, “Different quality ,different price.” Never chose the inferior products for cheap price.

Small part with large effect : Vibrating Screen damper

Do you know Circular Vibrating Screen damper?it’s a device which limits vibrating screen horizontal vibration.
May be you feel puzzled,is there any vibration in the horizontal direction?The answer is no In theory, but the practice has proved that it exists, the reasons are as follows:
(1) The distribution of material on the screen mesh is uneven. 
If the material is uneven,it can lead to the uneven force for screen box ,thus vibrating error appears.
(2) Installation error.
The Circular Vibrating Screen needs horizontal installation,but in the process of installation, the error will inevitably occur, resulting in a height of four supports occur small deviation, but the small deviation will be amplified by the vibration exciter, thus it will result in greater vibration deviation.
(3) the stress error of the spring.

How to select the gyratory vibrating screen

Gyratory vibrating screen is generally used for granule, powder etc fine screening, such as urea, silicon carbide, activated carbon, silica sand, salt, sugar, plastics etc industries. 
Features of gyratory screen:
1. It can be customized to be 1~3 lyers, and the sieve mesh size can be indicated;
2. Generally,Screen mesh material is stainless steel, it also can be selected according to the customer’s requirements;
3. There are self-cleaning device (bouncing ball) under the screen mesh, to avoid blocking during running;
4. The gyratory screen box can be open-type, also can be enclosed model, sealing and dustproof;
5. The main screen body generally is hanging installed, it also can be designed to be seated type accordingly;
6. The screen mesh width can be selected from 1200~2000mm, screen mesh length can selected from 3000~4000mm. Special design also can be achieved.

What is the selection notice of rotary vibrating screen?

1.Size of working area: rotary vibrating screen is circular, sieve surface area will effect of screening yield, so screening efficiency and yield can be improved by increasing the screening area. So the size of the field is one of the keys to the vibration screening.
2.Material characteristics: material properties,flowability and size.
3.Construction material : because of the different sieving materials, the construction material is also different, for example: food, salt, sugar and other related food industries, the whole machine material is SUS304. One reason is that hardness,thickness and wear resistance of 304 material are better, besides, polished stainless steel is bright like a mirror, the surface is clean and health, maintenance is very convenient which do not affect the material quality after screening. If the material is chemical, metallurgical and other raw materials, you can choose Q235 material, which not only save cost but also not affect the use.
4.Screen mesh can be divided into two kinds: stainless steel and carbon steel.
The shape and size of rotary vibrating screen are different generally based on the actual application and the on-site condition, and can be designed according to the requirements of clients to meet special circumstances. Common types of rotary vibrating screen: XZS-800mm, XZS-1000mm, XZS-1200mm, XZS-1500mm, XZS-1800mm, etc. 

Why shoudld we select bin above the conveying and screening equipment

Are you complaining the screening and conveying equipment you bought is not durable? Are you worried about equipment bearing capacity if you want to improve the production efficiency? Here we would like to give some tips for you:
No matter vibrating screen or belt conveyor, once they work with other corollary equipment, the joint parts are pretty crucial, the common one is hopper, it is not only because it can store material, but also can reduce the impact to screen mesh when feeding material, and increase the service life. In order to control the feeding rate of hopper uniformly, a electric or a manual gate valve can be added at the bottom of hopper, or a silo vibrator (we call it vibration hopper) to feed the material more uniform or vibratory feeder machine.
For example, one of our customers want a tilt screw conveyor, due to the small capacity, it needs to feed material to conveyor directly, we recommend placing a hopper on the screw conveyor in the purpose of storing material in order to ensure continuous working of screw conveyor and transmission efficiency of the screw conveyor.
During the use of conveying equipment, in order to improve the production efficiency of the conveying and screening equipment), it is necessary to put a hopper above the equipment. This will reduce the worker's labor intensity, the number of workers, the cost production line.
