ALMO Process announces new screening features

Mar. 5, 2012, Cincinnati, OH – Allgaier Process Technology is the industry originator of the Tumbler Screening Machine (TSM). The TSM can have up to five screening decks to allow material to be separated into six fractions. The Tumbler Screening Machine (TSM) relies on a three dimensional action to maximize utilization of each screen surface. This allows for high separation precisions of up to 99%. The Allgaier tumbler screening system offers adaptation to meet the most exacting requirements, and is used for fine and ultrafine screening through the world. Allgaier continues to develop and innovate based on its original design (to serve Aggregate, Chemical, Food, Mineral, & Pharma Industries).

Equipment can contain potential ignition sources and must be certified for use when installed in a hazardous area. Allgaier screening machines are constructed to prevent ignition source as defined by DIN EN 1127-1. Each machine is tested and assessed for electrical and non-electrical ignition sources. This includes insulated parts that could accumulate electrostatic charge, electrostatic charge from the friction of the material, V-belts (in gas hazardous areas), hot surfaces (from rotating weights) and mechanically generated sparks.

Allgaier Process Technology is the industry originator of the Tumbler Screening Machine which relies on a three dimensional action to maximize utilization of each screen surface and allows for high separation precisions of up to 99%.

Allgaier has performed production model tests and assessments in accordance with the Atex Directive 94/9/EC. Allgaier implements the necessary quality assurance procedures as approved by a European Notified Body as per Appendix IV. Various special rules must be followed for screening machines. The installation location and space inside the machine must also be considered. Allgaier screeners are available in accordance to equipment category 1D/2GD (zone 20 inside, zone 21/1 outside). Specific models can be supplied in category 1/2G (zone 0 inside, zone 1 outside) for wet screening. Allgaier Screening Machines can be considered for complex screening tasks like processing dry materials with a solvent.
