High-capacity powder screening
Sifting material with the KEK sifter not only classifies particle size but also removes unwanted material. Consequently, it reduces risks in powder handling and ensures consistent product quality.
Accurate size classification and contaminant removal
Sifting material with the KEK sifter not only classifies particle size but also removes unwanted material. As a result, it reduces risks in powder handling and ensures consistent product quality.
Versatile KEK sifter applications and alternative names
Also known as a rotary sifter, flour sifter, or powder sifter, this machine supports a wide range of applications. For example, it works in both gravity and inline systems, with capacities ranging from a few pounds per hour to over 90 tons per hour. In addition, it can handle a variety of materials, from fine powders to granular products.

The KEK centrifugal sifter provides a safer, cleaner, and more productive solution compared to traditional flat-deck powder sieves. It then enhances operational efficiency while minimizing dust, noise, and vibration.
| Feature | Horizontal flat deck powder sieve | Centrifugal sieve |
| Efficiency | High residency time | High efficiency and lower residency time |
| Speed | Slower processing | Faster processing |
| Levels | Several levels of separation | Single level of separation |
| Dust generation | Generates more dust Airborne particles due to movement | Generates less dust Enclosed operation, and less air displacement |
| Capacity | Lower capacity rates per screen area | Higher capacity rates per screen area |
| Vibration level | Vibrate / tumble | Low vibration / static |
| Noise | Noisy (approx. 75 db(A)) | Low noise levels |
| Connections requirement | Requires flexible connections | Compatible with both static/ flexible connections |
