Additional Sonic Sifter Features and Benefits.
- Sieving action can be varied for different densities and textures of materials.
- Sieving can be timed automatically to ensure repeatable results.
- Separated fractions of material (even below 5 micrometers) are retrievable for further evaluation after the analysis is complete.
- All sieves can be conveniently direct-tared on conventional analytical balances, eliminating the need to transfer retained samples for mass determination.
- Special see-through acrylic-framed sieves allow operator to determine proper power level and finish point for testing.
- Power level to separate particles is infinitely adjustable by operator as test progresses.
- A vertical, oscillating column of air 'tries' the particles 60 times per second on the screening surface, and a vertical mechanical pulse shears agglomerates (as in many conventional sieve shakers). The sifter then reorients the particles in the air column.
- No horizontal 'scrubbing' of the particles occurs as on standard sieve shakers. This scrubbing is the largest single cause of particle breakdown or attrition.
- Operation requires a very short learning curve.
- The unit is virtually maintenance-free, with no need for periodic adjustments or recalibration.
- The unit has a capacity of up to six standard sieves or three precision mesh, double height sieves.
