Introduction
Buckau-Wolf discontinuous centrifuges are used in the production of white sugar and raw sugar massecuite in the sugar industry, dextrose, mannite, xylite, isomalt and fructose massecuite, sugar substitutes, suspensions of similar consistency in the chemical and food industries
Drum design
Buckau-Wolf discontinuous centrifuges have a very lean drum design. The Advantages are as follows:
- Maximum separation performance through very high spinning factors of up to 1,500 g
- Colour removal of up to 98 %. The residual moisture in white sugar massecuite can be reduced to as little as 0.5 %.
Minimal usage of water and energy
Buckau-Wolf discontinuous centrifuges work with minimal water resources to avoid sugar loss and extremely low power consumption of less than 1 kWh/batch in the production of white sugar.

Main Benefits
- Excellent ease of operation due to low housing height
- An easy sampling of the white run-off, green run-off, and sugar at the operator level
- Long service life through well-dimensioned bearings with a reinforced drum shaft
- Robust, low-vibration bearing construction. Drive motor and bearing at the same level, therefore no relative movement to each other
In addition, BWS Technologie GmbH offers an option to integrate a monitoring system for continuous analysis and diagnosis of all rotating parts as well as a function for the automatic transfer of status and error messages via text message or e-mail.
