Applications
Rotex and You
Rotex equipment is operating at thousands of locations, screening hundreds of different materials. Learn More »
Rotex® Centrifugal Sifters are designed to meet high-capacity sifting needs for bulk load-in/load-out and larger process applications. The ROTEX® Centrifugal Sifter proves it’s cost efficiency daily in handling a wide variety of powders, granules, agglomerates and other free-flowing materials.
Large scale operation Centrifugal sifter units meet big job needs too. ROTEX offers the largest capacity centrifugal scalpers in the industry today. ROTEX Centrifugal Sifters are ideal for sizing, sifting, scalping, classifying, breaking of agglomerates, and product conditioning applications.
How It Works
Typical Centrifugal Sifter Operation
Step-by-Step Operational Flow
1 Material to be processed is fed into the Centrifugal Sifter inlet.
2 The auger then feeds the material into the screen area.
3 The rotating blades of the rotor assembly.
4 Spread the material across the screen.
5 The product (minus the screen size) passes through the screen.
6 The overs (plus the screen size) of up to 15% are conveyed forward and discharged.
7 The retaining baffle ring limits discharging material to oversize particles only, improving screening efficiency.
Ideal for the Following Applications
- Cake Mix

STATISTICS
| MODEL | SCREEN AREA | HP | RPM |
| 26 | 410 sq. inches | 3 | 710 |
| 60 | 942 sq. inches | 5 | 450 |
| 120 | 1872 sq. inches | 7.5 | 29 |
| Processed particles ranging in size from 1/4” to 44 microns (325 mesh) are scalped and/or separated with ease
The combination of high centrifugal force and blade spreading action reduces binding problems, even when handling materials that tend to flake or agglomerate due to fat or moisture content. |
