Our advanced equipment and innovative processes have earned us a reputation for excellence. At MecKey, we believe in providing our clients with reliable and efficient solutions that enhance their operations. In this article, we will explore the top benefits of using MecKey's filtration and concentration solutions, focusing on our current trending products and services such as membrane filtration, gravity arc screen, pressure arc screen, germ cyclone, squeezer, and more.
Membrane Filtration: Precision and Efficiency
Membrane filtration is a trending technique in the industry due to its precision and efficiency in separating particles from liquids. MecKey's membrane filtration systems are designed to handle various applications, ensuring high-quality results. This technology is particularly useful in processes that require the removal of impurities or the concentration of specific components. For instance, it is widely used in the dairy industry for milk concentration and protein separation.
Gravity Arc Screen: High Production Capacity
The MKGS series gravity arc screen is an essential piece of stationary sieving equipment in the starch industry. Its high-efficiency design makes it ideal for corn dewatering, germ dewatering and washing, and separating coarse or fine dregs (fiber). The sieve surface, made from stainless steel wedged rods in an arc shape, ensures a high production capacity and excellent sieving effect. This equipment is safe, reliable, and has a long service life, making it a valuable asset for any processing plant.
Pressure Arc Screen: Enhanced Yield and Quality
The MKPS series pressure arc screen is another high-efficiency sieving equipment that MecKey offers. It features a multi-stage backwashing process, which reduces occupation area and improves yield rate and starch quality. This equipment is crucial in the starch production process, ensuring that the end product meets the highest standards. Its compact design and high efficiency make it an excellent choice for operations looking to optimize their production.
Germ Cyclone: Superior Degermination
MecKey's MKGC series germ cyclone is designed for germ separation in corn starch production. Utilizing centrifugal force, the cyclone separates the heavy phase of the material from the light phase, ensuring high degermination efficiency. Its compact structure and neat design make it easy to integrate into existing processes. This equipment is often connected in series or parallel to meet different production requirements, making it versatile and efficient.
Squeezer: Effective Dewatering
The MKSQ series squeezer is used for dewatering fiber and germ in corn starch plants and vital gluten in wheat gluten plants. This equipment is crucial for further processing fiber dreg and germ into feedstuff. By effectively dewatering hydrous rough fiber and germ, the squeezer improves producing conditions and enhances the economic benefit of by-products. Its compact structure and stable operation make it an indispensable tool in any starch production plant.
Disc Separator: Purification and Concentration
MecKey's MKDS series disc separator is primarily used for purifying starch, concentrating, separating protein, and recovering starch production lines. The separator's working principle involves transmitting materials to the heart of the machine, where strong centrifugal force separates the heavy phase from the light phase. This process is vital for filtering dehydration in pharmaceutical industries, metal hydroxide slurry, corn protein filtering, and more. The disc separator ensures high efficiency and reliability in these critical processes.
Belt-Discharge Rotary Drum Vacuum Filter: Continuous Filtration
The MKBF belt-discharge rotary drum vacuum filter from MecKey achieves continuous suction filter, dehydration, and automatic discharge under vacuum conditions. This equipment is ideal for thickening filters and dehydration for solid and filtrate with lower consistency, fine particles, and high viscosity. Its customized design meets various demands, offering high capacity, high dryness, and easy discharge. The simple process layout saves materials, money, and labor, making it a cost-effective solution for industrial filtration needs.
Hydrocyclone: Starch Washing and Refining
Hydrocyclones are essential for starch washing, concentration, and refining. MecKey's hydrocyclone units consist of starch pumps and cyclone assemblies, working together in multi-cyclone stations to complete refining tasks. The washing system efficiently removes soluble and insoluble proteins and small fibers, ensuring high-quality starch. With stages ranging from 6 to 12, the system provides thorough washing and refining, making it a key component in starch processing plants.
Peeler Centrifuge: Starch Slurry Dewatering
The MKPC series peeler centrifuge is the main equipment used for purified starch slurry dewatering before final drying to a commercial product. Its structure includes a scraper, case and door cover assembly, rotating basket assembly, driving system, hydraulic system, and electric system. The centrifuge's working principle involves feeding the suspension to be separated into the rotating basket, where centrifugal force separates the liquid phase from the solid phase. The peeler centrifuge is essential for producing high-quality, dry starch.
