A new generation of batch centrifugals for high-purity massecuite

To remain competitive, centrifugal manufacturers need to continuously review their designs. This results in ongoing incremental improvements. Occasionally, a more radical set of several improvements are simultaneously introduced to produce a significantly new machine. The existing BMA G-series centrifugals were recently subjected to re-engineering to produce a new B-series. Aspects of the successful redesign are described. Novel features of the re-engineered centrifugals are: a new plough of the same length as the full height of the basket, resulting in: shorter discharging time less residual sugar in the basket. a new syrup separator resulting in: optimal separation of wash and green syrup due to the built-in separator considerably improved sugar house work. all product-contacted components in stainless steel as standard an improved centering device for spindle during sugar discharge drive head bearing system with two bearings only new dampening device adjustable from outside the centrifugal an easily removable basket without the need for a split spindle a working screen without a lock-lap joint.
