Gericke RotaVal EHDM rotary valve with replaceable wear parts.
Gericke RotaVal EHDM rotary valve with replaceable wear parts.

Gericke RotaVal EHDM rotary valve designed for abrasive powders

Rotary valves operate under various conditions. They feed, convey or isolate powders of the most different characteristics.

In the construction chemical, environmental or mineral industry they handle specific abrasive products like glass cullet, carbon, cement, dolomite, quartz and more.

They are exposed to important effects of abrasion. The wear of the rotor but also of the body happens even if the rotary valves are made of hardened materials and alloys. Such treatment will prolongate the working life but will not avoid the abrasion completely.

The conclusion is that sooner or later, the rotary valve has to be undertaken a revision and worn out parts have to be replaced. Otherwise the leakage will increase, and the operation and duty of the valve cannot be fulfilled anymore. The OEE (overall equipment effectiveness) will decrease. Gericke has developed its EHDM rotary valve for these applications. The goal is to increase the lifetime, shorten the downtime and make the maintenance very easy and done in place. This is realised by a design which foresees all parts under stress of abrasion as inserts. These parts can easily be exchanged.

The EHDM valves are available in all sizes of the Gericke rotary valve range.

Gericke RotaVal manufactures various types of rotary and diverter valves. For hygienic applications, the extendable HDMF models have proven themselves and can even be equipped with the contact detection device RotaSafe™.

Mixing of powders
Mixing of powders
New challenges concerning allergen handling, avoiding cross contamination and minimising cleaning downtime. Mixing of powders is an essential process in various industries from chemical, pharmaceutical to food. Short mixing times and excellent homogeneity while offering gentle product handling are standard challenges in defining modern mixing processes. The addition of ingredients in very low concentrations demands optimal solutions for automatic dosing as well the selection of an appropriate mixer. Recently, other process criteria have also become the focus of producers. Recipes change more often. Cross contamination between different recipes must be avoided for reasons of product purity, minimising the risk of allergen contamination and to ensure correct compliance with labelling regulations. The design of mixers, as well as the complete mixing processes, for this so called “hygienic execution” is very demanding. The key to increased productivity is the ease

New tare-compensated feeder DIW-E-STAR
New tare-compensated feeder DIW-E-STAR
Gericke’s tare-compensated hybrid loss-in-weight feeders are well known for their unique combination of high accuracy feeding and outstanding robustness. The new DIW-E-STAR weighing system in conjunction with Gericke’s GAC feeders now covers the mid-range of feed rates in Gericke’s gravimetric hybrid feeder portfolio, typically from 10 up to 2’000 kg/h (depending on bulk density). Modular design: One weighing frame, different hopper sizes The DIW-E-STAR is available with hopper sizes ranging from 50 liters to 200 liters net volume. Due to the modular approach, all hopper sizes fit into one weighing frame. All hoppers are equipped with vertical agitators to ensure mass flow even for cohesive powders. The weighing frame itself has been designed to combine highest mechanical stability with a lightweight construction. Perfectly suited for precise feeding in challenging environments Due to the tare-compensation mechanism the load cell only measures the actual

Flour screening in mills and industrial bakeries
Flour screening in mills and industrial bakeries
For more than 70 years Gericke has been producing and selling a complete range of flour sifting machines for mills and industrial bakeries worldwide. The purpose of these centrifugal sifters is to remove foreign bodies from the various flour qualities. This allows the flour quality to be kept constant and clean. The success of these centrifugal screening machines in milling is mainly based on 3 points: 1.)Very high screening capacity with mesh sizes between 400 and 800 µm and flow rates between 1 T/h and 100 T/h. 2.)Compact devices in terms of throughput and simple design. This facilitates operation and maintenance. 3.)An extremely robust construction ensures the longevity of the machines. There are Gericke sifters being in operation for more than 40 years. This is sustainability. These centrifugal screening machines have been further developed over the years to simplify cleaning and to meet new technical and regulatory requirements: Atex, CE/1935/2004 certification,
