Corn starch vibrating screen

Corn starch vibrating screen is a specialized piece of equipment used for screening corn starch. It uses mechanical vibration to make the corn starch on the mesh produce regular jumping and rolling, thereby separating particles of different sizes based on their size differences, thus efficiently achieving the screening objective. In the food processing industry, corn starch vibrating screen plays a crucial role in ensuring the purity and quality of corn starch, thereby safeguarding food safety.

Working principle of Corn starch vibrating screen

After corn starch enters the screen box, under the vibration of the screen, corn starch will do complex movements such as throwing up, falling, and jumping forward on the screen surface. Due to the combined effect of vibration and gravity, the material will gradually stratify, and smaller particles will gradually move to the lower layer of the screen and pass through the screen holes, while larger particles will remain on the upper layer of the screen and continue to move forward, eventually achieving the screening of corn starch of different particle sizes.

Advantages of Corn starch vibrating screen

1. Remove lumps in corn starch: The vibrating screen uses high-frequency vibration to continuously impact and shear the material on the screen, thereby effectively breaking up and breaking up the lumps, and retaining corn starch particles that meet the requirements.

2. Good screening effect: The corn starch vibrating screen appropriately increases the screen area, so that the material can be more evenly distributed and screened on the screen surface, reducing the accumulation of materials and the phenomenon of local over-screening, thereby improving the overall screening efficiency.

3. Anti-blocking design: Equipped with a bouncing ball cleaning device, when the vibrating screen is working, the bouncing ball will continuously hit the screen, so that the corn starch particles attached to the screen will fall off in time to prevent them from clogging the screen holes.

4. Fully enclosed structure: Most corn starch vibrating screens adopt a fully enclosed structure design. During the screening process, the dust is confined inside the screen box and will not spill out, reducing the loss of materials.

Application areas of Corn starch vibrating screen

Corn starch production: In the production process of corn starch, the vibrating screen is used to screen corn starch milk, remove impurities and incompletely hydrolyzed particles, and improve the purity and quality of corn starch.

Food processing: In the food processing industry, the corn starch vibrating screen is used to finely screen corn starch to meet the requirements of corn starch particle size in different food production, such as in the production of baked goods, candies, beverages, etc.

Pharmaceutical industry: In the pharmaceutical industry, corn starch is often used as a pharmaceutical excipient. Vibrating screens are used to screen corn starch to remove impurities and microorganisms to ensure the quality and safety of medicinal corn starch.

Chemical industry: In the chemical industry, corn starch can be used as a raw material or additive to produce various chemical products, such as adhesives, papermaking, textiles, etc. Corn starch vibrating screens are used to screen corn starch to meet the requirements of corn starch particle size and purity in different chemical production.

Selection recommendations for Corn starch vibrating screen

1. Particle size and mesh: If corn starch needs to be finely screened, such as producing high-purity food-grade or pharmaceutical-grade corn starch, the mesh requirement is high, generally around 500 mesh, and ultrasonic vibrating screens can be selected.

2. Humidity and viscosity: If the corn starch is too humid and sticky, it is easy to clog the screen. You can choose an ultrasonic vibrating screen or a vibrating screen with an anti-clogging design, such as a rotary vibrating screen with a bouncing ball cleaning device.

3. Corrosiveness: Corn starch itself is usually non-corrosive, but if the production environment is humid or there are other corrosive substances, a vibrating screen made of 304 stainless steel or 316L stainless steel should be selected to ensure the service life of the equipment and product quality.

Corn starch vibrating screen is a device used to screen corn starch powder or granules. Through vibration screening technology, it helps improve production efficiency, product quality, and ensure the uniformity and accuracy of granules. With the continuous development of food processing technology, the application scope of corn starch vibrating screen will continue to expand.
