Industrial powder security screening and de-agglomeration

Ensure product purity by efficiently screening and de-agglomerating powders, capturing contaminants to safeguard processing lines before packaging.

Screens and De-agglomerates Powders and Granules

The FlexSift series by Quadro Engineering offers advanced centrifugal sifters specifically designed for high-capacity powder screening and de-agglomeration across pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food, chemical, and cannabis industries. The inline design ensures efficient contaminant removal, while the centrifugal acceleration facilitates smooth particle flow through precisely selected meshes for specific process requirements. Available in lab, mid-size, and production-scale models, FlexSift units ensure minimal airborne particles, nearly 100% product recovery, and reduced operator exposure. Constructed to meet stringent FDA cGMP standards, the equipment features a quiet, dust-free operation that improves workplace conditions. Engineered for seamless integration, these sifters offer variable RPMs, quick no-tool changeovers, and flexible installation with options for ATEX-compliant setups, ensuring safe processing in explosive environments.

Benefits
