Gyratory Sieve Shaker
Gyratory Sieve Shaker for 8 Inch Laboratory Test Sieves
The Gyratory Sieve Shaker is designed for efficient particle-size analysis using laboratory test sieves.
The current product configuration accommodates up to 8 sieves of 8-inch diameter and uses a ¼ HP motor with reduction-gear drive for consistent mechanical sieving.
Working Principle
The sieve table does not rotate continuously. Instead, it operates with a progressively changing clockwise inclination that produces a gyratory motion across the sieve stack.
This movement is combined with vertical vibration at approximately 270 vibrations per minute, helping distribute the sample across the available sieve surface.
The gear mechanism operates in an oil bath to support smoother operation and reduce mechanical wear.
Benefits
- Supports repeatable particle-size analysis
- Uses combined gyratory and vertical motion
- Helps improve sample distribution over the sieve surface
- Oil-bath gear system for smoother mechanical operation
- Suitable for laboratory and quality-control use
- Designed for routine sieve-analysis applications
