Industrial sifters for beverage processing

Optimize your beverage production with precisely engineered sifters that ensure fine grading and efficient separation, keeping ingredients pure and operations seamless during continuous 24/7 processes.

Processes and Separates Ingredients for Diverse Applications

The GEA Scan-Vibro Vibratory Sifters are engineered to tackle the complex demands of both beverage and food production lines. These sifters excel in gently processing materials, using a combination of oscillation and vibration to maintain product integrity while achieving optimal separation and grading. Applications extend across industries, from processing brewers’ yeast and freeze-dried coffee to dewatering chemical and dairy products. Designed for continuous 24/7 operation, they ensure high efficiency and low power consumption. Equipped with a tool-free screen replacement and CIP (Clean-In-Place) compatibility, these sifters facilitate easy maintenance and quick changeovers for different product types. Built from stainless steel and compliant with industry standards such as USDA 3-A and EHEDG, they withstand rigorous production environments. The option for manual or pneumatic screen tensioning systems and mobile support frames further enhances versatility, making them adaptable to your unique processing needs.
