Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter

Description

Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter (also known as a vibratory sifter, vibro screen, or laboratory/pilot-scale vibrating sieve) is a compact machine designed for small to medium-batch processing in research, development, and pilot production. It bridges the gap between laboratory testing and full-scale manufacturing, typically handling batches from a few kilograms up to 100-150 kg/hour. It is widely used in pharmaceuticals, food, chemicals, cosmetics, and other industries for:

Screening and grading powders/granules
Separating solids from solids or solids from liquids
Removing oversize particles, lumps, or contaminants
Ensuring uniform particle size distribution

Unlike large industrial models (30-72 inch diameters), pilot scale versions are often 12-20 inches in diameter, portable, low-maintenance, and cGMP-compliant for hygienic applications.

Working Principle of Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter

This vibrating energy screen is unit consisting of circular pre-tensioned screen mounted on the frame along with vibrating motor. The vibrating motor imparts three plane vibrations to the screen due to revolving eccentric weights. Total assembly is mounted on suitable springs so that it becomes a independent body which vibrates without parting any vibrations to the foundations.

Advantages of Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter

Particle size grading and separation: Sorting powders into uniform fractions.

Removal of impurities or lumps: De-lumping stored materials.

Solid-solid or solid-liquid separation: Screening small batches of pharmaceutical ingredients, chemicals, or food samples.

Quality control and R&D testing: Ensuring consistency in drug formulations, excipients, or experimental materials.

Ideal for small-scale production in pharma labs, colleges, or pilot plants.

Key Features of Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter

Compact GMP Model — Designed specifically for laboratory and R&D use with a small footprint, making it ideal for limited space in pilot plants and research facilities.

Stainless Steel GMP Construction — Contact parts made from high-quality SS 304 / SS 316 for superior corrosion resistance, hygiene, and compliance with pharmaceutical standards.

Dust-Free Operation — Equipped with a lid and silicon sealing for contamination-free screening and safe handling of powders/granules.

Easy Cleaning & Maintenance — Quick assembly/disassembly design for fast screen changeover, thorough cleaning, low operating costs, and long screen life.

Vibro Motor with Spring-Mounted Design — Specially designed vibratory motor with adjustable eccentric weights; springs amplify vibrations, reduce motor HP requirement, and isolate vibrations from the floor.

Portable & Movable — Lightweight, easy-to-move construction (often with castor wheels) perfect for lab environments.

Available in Multiple Sizes — Offered in diameters such as 20″, 24″, 30″, 36″, and 48″ (with options for single or multi-deck configurations).

Low Noise & Efficient — Quiet operation with high screening efficiency for small-batch processing (typically 20–140 kg/hr depending on model).

Documentation & Automation Ready — IQ/OQ documentation available; optional PLC system with Graphical User Interface (HMI).

FAQ for Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter

What is a Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter?

A Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter (also known as Pilot Vibro Screen or Vibratory Sifter) is a compact, cGMP-compliant vibratory screening machine designed for small to medium batch processing in R&D, pilot plants, and scale-up production. It bridges the gap between lab-scale and full production by handling batches from a few kilograms up to 100-150 kg/hour. It is ideal for screening, grading, and separating powders, granules, and liquids while removing impurities.

How does the Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter work?

The machine features a circular pre-tensioned screen mounted on a frame with a vibratory motor. The motor generates three-plane gyratory vibrations through revolving eccentric weights. Material fed onto the screen is separated by particle size — finer particles pass through to the bottom outlet, while oversize particles are discharged from the side. The spring-mounted assembly vibrates independently without transmitting vibrations to the floor.

What are the key features of the Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter?

Compact GMP model with SS 304/SS 316 contact parts.
Dust-free operation with lid and silicon sealing.
Easy assembly/disassembly for quick cleaning and screen changeover.
Portable & movable design with low operating & maintenance cost.
Spring-mounted vibro motor for reduced power consumption.
Long screen life, low noise, IQ/OQ documentation, and optional PLC with HMI.

What are the available models and capacities?

The Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter is available in the following models:

AVS-20: 20–70 kg/hr, 20″ (335 mm) diameter, 0.25 HP motor
AVS-24: 20–140 kg/hr, 24″ (520 mm) diameter, 0.25 HP motor

It is also offered in larger diameters such as 30″, 36″, 48″, and 60″ depending on production requirements.

Which industries use the Pilot Scale Vibro Sifter?

It is widely used in the Pharmaceutical, Biotech, Ayurvedic, Herbal, Nutraceutical, and Cosmetic industries for R&D, pilot batch, and small-scale production. It is also suitable for Food Processing, Chemical, and other sectors requiring precise particle size control and contamination-free screening.
