JGC Gravity Concentrators

JGC Concentrators are designed to divide base material flow into two fraction – light and heavy. Machines are used in processing plants such as sowing seed cleaners, flour mills, oat mills, dehulling plants etc.

Sorted material is fed to inclined sieve, where fluidized bed is made by vibrations and passing air flow, leading to stratification of cleaned materials light on top and heavy in the bottom. Lighter material flows down the sieve, due to vibrations of sieve, heavier material gets upward on the sieve.

Single fractions fall through flaps into outlet funnel. According to input material, it is possible to adjust sieve inclination, amplitude of vibration, angle of particles throw and amount of exhaust air. Machine is also capable to remove impurities with a slightly different bulk density.

Aspirated air should be cleaned by cyclone separator or by filter.

Benefits:

High efficiency
Small dimensions and compact construction
Easy installation, commissioning and operation
Minimal maintenance requirement
Easy adjustment of working parameters
Low power consumption
Vacuum design – dust-free operation

Applications:

Dehulling plants – husk separation and light fraction
Cleaning line for sowing seeds – light grain separation (eg. dried or damaged by pests)
Flour Mills – dividing grain to light and heavy fractions
Other food-processing plants

NOTE
Dimensions and weights mentioned without air fan. Capacities are for wheat. Material transported to JGC Concentrator has to be cleaned on sieves and by air. Amount of exhausted air is greater for heavier materials (eg legumes) and less for light materials (eg sunflowers).
