Industrial pre-cleaners for raw material safeguarding

When raw materials are received at a processing plant, they often contain contaminants like stones, wood, or ropes that can damage downstream machinery. Effective separation of such foreign objects is crucial to protect expensive processing equipment and ensure smooth operation.

Remove contaminants from raw materials

The pre-cleaners designed by Ottevanger Milling Engineers specialize in eliminating unwanted materials from raw inputs. Utilizing a rotating drum clad with a 40×40 mm mesh screen, the pre-cleaner filters contaminants such as wood, stones, and clothing. The filtered good material then passes through an external magnet for further purification. For materials potentially contaminated with ropes and strings, an additional catching device can be installed. The pre-cleaner includes a manually operated bypass valve, replaceable manganese steel wear plates, and is equipped with dust aspiration and a sight glass with an optional level switch. The system is powered by a rear-mounted geared motor ensuring robust performance.

Benefits

  • Protects downstream processing equipment
  • Efficient removal of large contaminants
  • Optional rope-catching device
  • Integrated dust aspiration system
  • Durable design with replaceable wear plates
