Powder sifters for industrial applications
Optimize powder consistency and enhance production flow with advanced sifting technology designed to effectively classify, de-lump, and screen a variety of bulk solids and powders.

Separates and Classifies Bulk Powder Materials
Powder Process-Solutions offers a versatile line of centrifugal, vibratory, and gyratory sifters designed for complex powder processing in the dairy, food, pharmaceutical, and nutritional industries. Engineered for high-capacity operations, these sifters ensure precise separation and classification, reducing screen blinding and enhancing product quality.
Centrifugal sifters excel in handling high throughput, using rotor-driven centrifugal force to achieve effective scalping while maintaining product consistency, with direct or belt drive options available for seamless integration into continuous production lines.
Vibratory sifters, featuring high-tensioned screen cloths, are ideal for fragile and agglomerated powders, offering energy-efficient, quiet, and low-maintenance operation. They accommodate easy, tool-free screen changes, ensuring minimal downtime.
Gyratory sifters employ non-vibratory, gyratory-reciprocating motion, ideal for friable materials, providing gentle handling and extended material dwell time on the screen for fine particulate classification.
All models are available in food and dairy-grade finishes, comply with USDA and 3-A sanitary standards, and offer easy-clean designs. Customizations, including material construction and screen sizes, ensure compatibility with varied applications, while expert engineering support aids seamless line integration.
