Power Sifter

Boost efficiency with S. Howes’ centrifugal power sifters.

High capacity Centrifugal Power Sifters separate clumps from desired material by means of rotating paddles which push material through a sieve screen. Numerous screen cloths, mesh and wedge wire screens (for more abrasive materials) are available to achieve capacities as high as 100,000 lbs. per hour. Sifter throughput capacity is dependent on product density, characteristics, and screen size.

Our Power Sifters feature a heavy-duty construction build and low horsepower requirements for reliable and efficient processing of a variety of bulk solids products. Five models are available in mild steel or stainless steel for sanitary applications along with custom power sifter options.
