From eating syrup on your pancakes to wearing a silver necklace, you have benefitted from industrial centrifuges far more often than you probably realize. Yet, despite a centrifuge’s integral role in our society, many people have never heard of this vital piece of equipment.
Looking to buy a centrifuge or parts? Then let’s talk about the obvious: if you’re spending a large chunk of your budget on equipment, you’ll want to make sure that it’s going to work (without any surprises).
Here at Separators, service is our core offering. Over the years, we’ve put a lot of time, attention, and resources into ensuring the completeness of our centrifuge service capabilities. We’ve also been thinking about how we can present our services in ways that are clear to any prospective customers who might be considering working with us. In this VLOG, I provide a quick, easy outline of our service offerings. Check it out:
When it comes to centrifuges, having spare parts on hand can not only save you a headache, but it can save you downtime (and money). But what parts are worth having on hand, and what parts can you wait to purchase?
Maybe your centrifuge is shaking or vibrating. Or maybe your product is experiencing consistency issues after leaving your centrifuge. Whatever the issue, you or your field service technician have identified that your centrifuge bowl needs rebalancing. And your next step is to ship your bowl to us to make the repairs in our fully-equipped shop.
Minimizing your centrifuge’s electricity and water usage can save your plant a lot of money. A well-maintained centrifuge can last a lifetime, meaning that optimizing your centrifuge’s operations can result in big savings in the long run.
Having a balanced bowl is vital to ensuring that your bowl lives a long, safe, and productive life. Just like you balance the tires on your car, your bowl should be balanced on a regular basis. An unbalanced centrifuge will not operate at peak efficiency and could even be dangerous. To keep your operators safe and your product quality high, centrifuges should be serviced to restore balance.
Does brand matter?
When it comes to making any large purchase, the answer is a resounding yes.
You invest time, energy, and research into creating a top-quality product. So it’s only natural you’d want to invest in equipment with a reputation for quality, consistency, and longevity. But where should you start?
“Where can you use centrifugal separators?” is a question that’s nearly impossible to answer. Centrifuge separation has applications across more industries than the average person can name — which would either make it a great or terrible question for pub trivia night.
These high-speed industrial champions are vital to the processing of dairy products, beer, wine, paint, mineral oil, petroleum, fruit juice, ceramics, plastics, animal feed, pharmaceuticals… the list goes on.
