Precision sieve shaker for particle size analysis

Achieve precise particle size separation with a sieve shaker designed for reliable performance in quality control and research applications, ensuring efficient material testing and accurate results every time.

Performs Precise Particle Size Analysis

The AS 200 Tap from Retsch is a specialized sieve shaker engineered to provide precise particle size analysis across a range of industries, including metallurgy, pharmaceuticals, and construction materials. Utilizing a horizontal circular motion combined with vertical tapping, it simulates hand sieving to ensure consistent separation and fractioning of materials such as abrasives, cement, and spices. With the ability to sieve up to 3 kg batches within a measuring range of 20 µm to 25 mm, its digital settings allow easy control and monitoring. The equipment’s maintenance-free design and integration with the EasySieve software via RS232 interface make it an efficient addition to research labs and quality control operations. While designed for dry sieving, the AS 200 Tap meets ISO 9001 standards, ensuring dependable results in any testing environment.
