[Case Study] I want to easily extract crystals even with an upper discharge centrifugal separator.
Easy-to-clean top discharge centrifuge KMβ
The special basket and lifter enable improved cleaning of the in-flight baskets and reduce the burden on the work operators.
We received an inquiry from chemical manufacturer Company O regarding their desire to easily recover and extract crystals using a top discharge centrifuge. We proposed and delivered our top discharge centrifuge model KMβ with a bottom-opening dewatering bag and a basket without a flange. As a result of using our centrifuge, we received positive feedback regarding: - Reduced burden on the operating personnel - Improved cleanability of the basket inside the machine In a top discharge centrifuge, the operating personnel must manually remove solid materials. However, this is quite labor-intensive, and the difficulty increases if the solids are hard. Furthermore, with medium-sized machines around 42 inches, the solids to be removed can exceed 100 kg. To alleviate this heavy labor, we considered the bottom-opening type of dewatering bag. ↓ Continued to "Basic Information"

basic information
The upper discharge type centrifuge uses a dewatering bag with a bag-shaped filter cloth as the filtration material, and its attachment and detachment required manual labor. However, with a bottom discharge type dewatering bag, you can simply hook a belt attached to the bag onto the crane's hook and lift it directly from the basket. By maintaining that height while moving, you can untie the string at the bottom of the bag over a container that receives the solids. This allows the solids to fall out from the opening of the bag for discharge, thereby reducing the burden on the operating personnel. However, even with a bottom discharge type dewatering bag, it is often the case that it gets caught on the rim when being lifted from the basket, which can frequently trouble the operator. Therefore, we devised a rimless basket by eliminating the rim of the basket and instead attaching a rim to the dewatering bag to make it easier to lift. This change eliminates the snagging of the bag when loosening the solids and lifting the bag, and it also improves the cleanability of the basket.

Detailed information
-
【Lifter】 We also offer a device called a lifter that can suspend dewatering bags. With a standard crane, there is a possibility that paint chips or dust from the crane could contaminate the products, increasing the risk of contamination. Our lifter can be made of stainless steel to prevent foreign matter contamination.
-
【Open-bottom Dehydration Bag】 By allowing the bottom of the dehydration bag to be opened, it has become easier to collect crystals by suspending the heavy dehydration bag from a crane. 【No Brim Basket】 Eliminating the brim of the basket has removed the snagging issue during the process of loosening solid materials and when lifting the bag, and it has also improved the cleanability of the basket.
