Gravity Separator
Separation of Kernels and Granular Products
Gravity Separator
Separation of Kernels and Granular Products
HIGHLIGHTS
- Used for the separation of any kind of kernel and granular product of almost identical size but with different weights.
- Utilized when the limits of air-aspiration systems and screening are reached.
- Gravity Separators are an additional piece of equipment for separating more accurately according to specific weight.
High precision separation by gravity
Cimbria Gravity Separators excel in separating any kind of kernel and granular product of almost identical size using weight as the differentiator. Purify your production with the right system for your operation. Eliminate stones, metals, plastics and other granular contaminants – even elements of almost identical size. The Gravity Separator builds on the principle of fluidization, which transforms a bed of solid crops into a fluid-like state by using air to divide different weights of products on the conveyor belt. Due to the conveying system and the inclination of the deck the light material in the top layer moves down to the low side and heavy material in the bottom layer moves up to the high side of the deck.
Efficient Seperation
Our Gravity Tables ensure that every kernel is sorted with the utmost accuracy, enhancing the quality of your yield with:
Precision Separation: Cimbria Gravity Separator uses fluidization principles to separate kernels based on specific weight, ensuring high accuracy.
Versatility: Suitable for various granular products, from fine seeds to larger beans.
Efficiency: Designed to handle high volumes with minimal mixing zones, providing consistent and reliable results.
Ease of Use: Equipped with user-friendly controls and a patented eccentric drive for stability and reduced maintenance.

Product Overview

Gravity Separator
The product processed by the gravity separator is separated into layers of different specific weight according to the “fluid bed” principle.
The size of the kernels is normally between 0.5 mm (fine seeds) and 20 mm (e.g. beans).

Cimbria’s Gravity Separator is vital for corn processing.
It efficiently separates maize from stones and other crops based on weight. The Cimbria Gravity Separator uses fluidisation principles to ensure precise separation onto the conveyors.
