  • Manual Top Discharge Centrifuge Machine

    In the world of industrial solid-liquid separation, the Manual Top Discharge Centrifuge Machine stands as a simple, durable, and highly efficient solution. Especially valued in industries like pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food processing, dyes, and textiles, this type of centrifuge offers a perfect blend of operational reliability and cost-effectiveness.

    What is a Manual Top Discharge Centrifuge?

    A Manual Top Discharge Centrifuge is a batch-type centrifugal machine designed for separating solids from liquids. In this design, the discharge of the solid cake is done manually through the top of the centrifuge. It’s ideal for operations where the batch size is manageable and maximum control over the discharge process is required.

    This centrifuge is generally built with a robust design to handle varying process requirements, including different types of materials—whether fine, coarse, crystalline, or fibrous.

    Why Choose Shiv Shakkkti Manual Top Discharge Centrifuge?

    At Shiv Shakti Process Equipment, we believe in delivering more than just a machine — we deliver performance, reliability, and innovation. Our Manual Top Discharge Centrifuge comes with several key advantages:

    1. Specially Designed Shaft for Maximum Reliability

    Our centrifuges are equipped with a specially engineered shaft, designed for higher mechanical strength and reduced vibrations. This ensures superior stability, longer operational life, and makes our machine far more reliable than conventional centrifuges available in the market.

    2. Unique Zero Hold-Up Design

    Shiv Shakti’s centrifuge features a true zero hold-up design, meaning no product loss during operation. Every drop of liquid and every particle of solid is efficiently separated, providing better yields and cleaner processing—especially crucial for high-value materials.

    3. Heavy-Duty Bearing Housing

    We use a robust bearing housing with premium quality bearings and oil lubrication systems, ensuring smooth operation even under heavy loads.

    4. Superior Basket Dynamics

    Our baskets are dynamically balanced for both static and dynamic loads, resulting in silent, vibration-free operation and longer machine life.

    5. Hygienic and Easy-to-Clean Construction

    Machines are built as per GMP standards, using SS304, SS316, or customized materials, with crevice-free surfaces to make cleaning easy and prevent contamination. Perfect for pharmaceutical and food-grade applications.

    6. Safety Features

    • Mechanical or pneumatic lid locking systems
    • Limit switch interlocks
    • Vibration monitoring
    • Optional nitrogen blanketing for handling explosive materials

    7. Energy Efficient

    Our machines are designed to reduce power consumption without compromising on performance, delivering more savings over time.

    Working Principle

    The process starts by loading the slurry (a mixture of solids and liquids) into the rotating basket lined with a filter medium. Upon rotation, centrifugal force pushes the liquid out through the perforations and filter medium, while the solids are retained inside. Once separation is complete, the machine is stopped, and the operator manually removes the solid cake from the basket.

    Typical Steps:

    • Loading
    • Separation/Filtration
    • Stopping
    • Manual Discharge
