The Cimbria gravity separator offers excellent separation of kernels and granular products, separating kernel and granular products of almost identical size but with different weights. The product processed by the gravity separator is separated into layers of different specific weight according to the “fluid bed” principle. The gravity separator is utilised when the limits of air-aspiration systems and screening are reached. A gravity separator does not replace these earlier sorting steps, but is an additional piece of equipment for separating more accurately according to specific weight.
