Food processors use a vibro sifter for the food industry to keep lumps, oversize particles and foreign matter out of their products and to grade ingredients to a uniform fineness. It is one of the most common machines in flour mills, spice units, bakeries, confectionery plants and dairy-powder packing lines.

Requirements in Food Sifting
- Stainless steel contact surfaces that wash easily
- Lead-free screens
- Enclosed design to keep dust in and pests and contaminants out
- Quick dismantling for daily cleaning
- Suitable screen area for oily or hygroscopic spices
Safety (Check) Screening Before Packing
A sifter placed just before the filling machine catches oversize lumps and foreign particles at the last opportunity. A coarse screen is usually enough, so throughput is high and the machine can be compact. Pair it with your plant's metal detection as specified by your food safety plan.
Spices Need Special Attention
Spices with high oil content, such as some chilli and masala blends, tend to stick to the mesh. A larger diameter, appropriate mesh and regular brushing of the screen keep output steady. Tell us the spice and its fineness so we can size correctly.
