Mill sifter for precise bulk density and particle size distribution

Achieve precise particle size and uniform bulk density for food ingredients, ensuring smooth processing and optimal storage with a solution designed for high-speed continuous operations.

Achieves Consistent Particle Size and Bulk Density

The ANDRITZ Gouda mill sifter is designed to efficiently manage the milling and sifting of powders within food processing operations. With its high sifting capacity and gentle operation, it ensures a consistent narrow particle size distribution, optimizing bulk density for storage and packaging. This equipment is particularly effective in applications such as cereal-based baby food, milk, cocoa, and sugar processing, delivering uniform flakes and removing impurities. The mill sifter features easily exchangeable sieves with a range of perforations, allowing customization of particle sizes and densities. Engineered for continuous, high-speed operation, it integrates seamlessly into automated production lines. Its stainless steel construction meets stringent food industry standards, including ATEX 95 compliance, and supports hassle-free maintenance with a tool-free clamping system for sieve replacement.

Benefits

  • Ensures consistent product quality with precise particle size control.
  • Boosts operational efficiency by integrating sifting and milling in one process.
  • Decreases contamination risk with easy-to-clean, tool-free sieve exchange.
  • Enhances safety compliance with ATEX 95 certification.
