High-Efficiency Screening: Tanis Rotary Separator
Precision Screening Technology for Seeds, Grains, and Granular Products
In the agriculture and food industry, product quality lies in the details. Especially in seed and grain processing, achieving the right size, unbroken, and impurity-free products is one of the most critical stages for quality.
The Tanis Rotary Separator is a high-capacity, durable screening solution that precisely classifies products according to particle size. Its rotating drum structure provides gentle and balanced processing, even for fragile products, enhancing both quality and production efficiency.
Working Principle: Gentle Screening with a Rotating Drum
-
Multi-layered screening surfaces are placed on the rotating drum.
-
The drum controls the product’s passage time and continuously renews the screen surface to prevent clogging.
-
Different mesh sizes on each layer guide large, medium, and fine particles to separate outlets.
-
Compared to vibration-based systems, the rotary motion is gentler, resulting in lower breakage and smoother product flow.
This structure ensures high efficiency and minimal waste, particularly when processing fragile seeds and grains.
Durable and Flexible Design
-
Interchangeable Screens: Tool-free quick change system for easy adaptation to different products.
-
Modular Capacity: Model options ranging from 3 to 20 tons per hour.
-
Energy Efficient: Low-speed rotary design reduces energy consumption.
-
Full Access Design: Ergonomic drum access for cleaning and maintenance.
-
Automation Compatible: Integration with PLC/SCADA systems for precise control.
Applications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Difference between rotary and vibrating screens?
Rotary screens gently sift products with drum motion, reducing breakage risk. Vibrating systems are harsher, potentially damaging fragile products. -
Are screen sizes adjustable?
Yes. Panels are easily interchangeable for different product sizes. -
Can one machine process multiple product types?
Yes. Quick screen changes allow multiple product types to be processed in the same machine. -
Is cleaning and maintenance easy?
Yes. Ergonomic access points and modular design allow quick drum cleaning. -
Can it integrate with automation systems?
Yes. Compatible with PLC/SCADA for production monitoring and error reporting. -
How is the energy consumption?
Lower than vibrating systems due to low-speed rotary mechanism.
Conclusion
The Tanis Rotary Separator is more than a screening machine—it is a quality and efficiency control point within your production line.
