Industrial sieving solution for powders and granulates

Ensure top sanitation and food safety in your production line with a high-speed sieving machine that efficiently removes foreign particles and reduces energy consumption. Ideal for processing fine powders and granulates to achieve consistent product quality.

Sifts and Separates Powders and Granulates

The Sieving Machine MKZK from Bühler Group is designed to provide superior sieving solutions for food and bakery processing. It operates using an inline control system that efficiently removes foreign particles from powders and granulates such as flour and sugar. This machine is versatile, suitable for applications ranging from pastry flour production to granulated sugar separation. With a capacity to handle various raw materials, it is essential for bakeries, milling companies, and food processing plants. Featuring a belt-free direct drive, the MKZK reduces energy consumption by at least 5% over previous models, and its air management redesign cuts aspiration air use by 55%. Crafted from stainless steel, every component in contact with products is engineered for optimal sanitation, minimizing contamination risks. The machine also supports flexible configurations, with screen hole sizes ranging from 0.75 to 8 mm, tailored to specific processing needs. Additionally, it ensures compliance with stringent food safety regulations, supporting easy maintenance with a quick-access cleaning hatch designed for rapid sanitation.
