Overview

Our continuous horizontal centrifuge is a high-performance industrial separator designed for continuous solid-liquid separation in rendering plants. Engineered for 24/7 operation, it combines a horizontally oriented bowl with a screw conveyor system to ensure consistent throughput and high separation efficiency across diverse animal by-product applications.

Key Benefits of Our Continuous Horizontal Centrifuge

  • High Separation Efficiency

    The system generates powerful centrifugal force for rapid separation of fat, protein, and water phases. Ideal for high-volume processing of cooked animal by-products.

  • Continuous, Non-Stop Operation

    Optimized for 24/7 workflow integration, supporting uninterrupted separation in continuous rendering systems.

  • Robust Industrial Design

    The machine's vibration-balanced structure, heavy-duty bearings, and corrosion-resistant components are tailored for harsh rendering environments.

  • Precise Control System

    Equipped with PLC and frequency converters, operators can adjust parameters such as bowl speed and differential torque for different feedstock and process stages.

  • Simplified Maintenance

    Modular components, self-cleaning functions, and real-time diagnostics reduce downtime and maintenance costs.

Technical Working Principle

The centrifuge utilizes both gravitational settling and centrifugal acceleration to separate mixed phases based on density. A horizontally oriented bowl rotates at high speed, while an internal scroll conveys heavier solids toward the discharge end. The clarified oil and water phases exit through controlled outlets, enabling continuous discharge and minimal product loss.

What is the main difference between a continuous horizontal centrifuge and a vertical centrifuge?
A continuous horizontal centrifuge features a horizontally oriented rotating bowl with an internal screw conveyor, enabling continuous solid-liquid separation with stable operation and easier maintenance. Vertical centrifuges typically operate in batch mode and are better suited for small-scale or specific applications.
What types of materials can this centrifuge process?
Our centrifuge is designed for solid-liquid and liquid-liquid separation in animal fat rendering plants, including cooked animal by-products, slurries with high solids content, and mixtures requiring precise phase separation.
What maintenance is required for the centrifuge?
The centrifuge includes self-diagnosis and alarm functions to quickly identify issues. Its modular design allows easy disassembly and cleaning. Regular checks of bearings, seals, and drive systems are recommended to ensure long-term reliability.
Can this centrifuge be integrated into existing rendering lines?
Yes, it is engineered for seamless integration with upstream cookers and downstream fat recovery systems, supporting continuous operation and automated discharge control.
