Low profile flow-thru separator for wet or dry scalping

Efficiently handle high-capacity separation with a compact design tailored for both wet and dry scalping operations, seamlessly integrating into existing processes without system overhauls.

Performs High-Capacity Material Scalping and Sifting

The SWECO LX and LA Low Profile Flow-Thru Separators are engineered for seamless integration into compact production environments, offering high-capacity wet and dry scalping without the need for extensive reconfiguration. These separators utilize dual motors and high G-loading to induce a 3-D sifting motion, ensuring complete discharge of oversized material while maximizing material flow. They are suitable for diverse industries such as mining, pharmaceuticals, and food processing, handling a variety of end products from ceramic tiles to paracetamol tablets. With processing capacities that cater to high throughput demands, these separators are constructed with low headroom requirements as minimal as 15 inches, allowing flexible placement within existing lines. Designed with PLC automation and available rubber isolators for enhanced stability, they ensure energy-efficient operations, reducing power consumption and minimizing operational interruptions. The design supports easy cleaning and maintenance, facilitating quick rollouts of product changeovers, and meets the rigorous standards required for operations handling chemicals or consumables.
