Main classification


Folding 1: According to the separation factor Fr value


The centrifuge can be divided into the following types:


1. Normal speed centrifuge


Fr≤3500 (generally 600~1200), this kind of centrifuge has a lower speed and a larger diameter.


2. High-speed centrifuge


Fr=3500~50000, the speed of this kind of centrifuge is higher, generally the diameter of the drum is smaller, but the length is longer.


3. Ultra-high speed centrifuge


Fr>50000, due to the high speed (above 50000r/min), the drum is made into a slender tube type.


The separation factor Fr refers to the ratio of the centrifugal force received by the material in the centrifugal force field to the gravity received by the material in the gravity field.


Folding two, according to the operation mode


The centrifuge can be divided into the following types:


1. Gap centrifuge


The feeding, separation, washing and slag unloading processes are all intermittent operations, and the slag is unloaded by manual, gravity or mechanical methods, such as three-foot and top suspension centrifuges.


2. Continuous centrifuge


The process of feeding, separating, washing and unloading slag can be carried out automatically between gaps and continuous automatically.


3. Geotechnical centrifuge


Folding three, according to the method of unloading slag


Centrifuge can be divided into the following types:


1. Scraper discharge centrifuge


The process is indirect and the operation is automatic.


2. Piston pusher centrifuge


The process is semi-continuous and the operation is automatic.


3. Screw discharge centrifuge


The process is continuous and the operation is automatic.


4. Centrifugal force unloading centrifuge


The process is continuous and the operation is automatic.


5. Vibration unloading centrifuge


The process is continuous and the operation is automatic.


6. Reverse unloading centrifuge


The process is continuous and the operation is automatic.


Folding four, according to process use


Centrifuge can be divided into: filter centrifuge, sedimentation centrifuge.


Folding five, according to the installation method


It can also be divided into vertical, horizontal, inclined, overhanging, and three-legged.


Fold six. According to national standards and market share


Are the following four  


1. Three foot centrifuge


2. Horizontal screw centrifuge


3. Disc separator


4. Tubular separator
