3-phase separating decanter for animal by-products
Enhance your recovery processes with a decanter centrifuge designed to separate and clarify high-value animal by-products, ensuring efficient extraction of oils, fats, and proteins.

Separates and Clarifies Animal Oils and Proteins
The meatMaster CF from GEA is a high-performance 3-phase separating decanter centrifuge designed for the efficient recovery of animal oils, fats, and proteins. Utilizing a solid-wall bowl with distinct cylindrical and conical sections, it ensures effective clarification and drying of solids. The equipment is essential for processing animal by-products, producing end-products such as lard, tallow, and bone meal. Capable of continuous high-speed operation, it can seamlessly integrate into your existing production line with automation features and differential speed control, driven by a frequency-controlled 3-phase AC motor. The centrifuge uses energy efficiently, minimizing transmission losses with optimized power flow. Made from high-quality stainless steel, all product-contacting parts are corrosion-resistant and comply with FDA standards. Additionally, the machine is equipped with a CIP (Clean-in-Place) system, enabling hassle-free maintenance and rigorous cleaning, making it ideal for stringent hygiene requirements in meat and animal by-product processing industries.
