Vibratory Elutriators
Bulk Processing Solutions
Fluidbed Processors
General Kinematics Vibratory Elutriators combine vibration with air classification for separating materials of different densities. The collection efficiency of General Kinematics elutriators is maximized through the use of vibratory energy which stratifies the product and conveys it through the process. Once stratified, the lighter density material naturally rises to the top of the material stream and is ejected upwards into the exhaust hood of the machine. GK vibratory elutriators can be configured in a straight conveyor-style fluid bed design or special spiral conveyor arrangements, depending on your process requirements. Contact General Kinematics for specific information regarding elutriation and other air classification technologies.

Case Study: Elutriation of Powders
Challenge A corn derived sweetener manufacturer was experiencing an issue with some of their customers regarding flowa¬¬bility of their products. Some of the powdery material would not flow sufficiently well to enable the required dispersion in their customer’s food making machinery. The cause of poor flowability of their products was high fines content, producing a…
