Vertical Centrifuge – Effective Dewatering Solution for Hard Flakes Designed for high-speed dewatering of hard plastic flakes, vertical centrifuge systems reduce the moisture content of the material to as low as 1% thanks to their special rotor structure. The improved sieve design simplifies cleaning and maintenance, ensuring continuous high-efficiency operation of the machine. All housings and main components are manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel to meet long-life and hygiene standards. This technology improves the final product quality in recycling processes and saves energy by shortening drying time.
Vertical centrifuge systems are optimized for the rapid and homogeneous dewatering of hard plastic flakes, especially those coming from injection and extrusion lines. The high-speed rotor balance minimizes vibration, extending bearing and shaft life. Thanks to integrated discharge channels, the separated water is removed immediately, preventing re-moistening within the system. Automatic lid locking and emergency stop systems increase operator safety, while the compact design saves space in the production area. Vertical centrifuges are a reliable solution that supports process continuity in the drying and pre-granulation stages following the washing line.
