Description
Nickel Sugar Working Screens are high-precision screening components used in sugar processing plants to separate crystals from syrup efficiently. Manufactured from durable nickel material with uniform slot openings, they provide excellent wear resistance, high screening accuracy, and long service life. These screens help improve sugar quality, maximize throughput, reduce maintenance downtime, and ensure consistent performance in continuous production operations.
Application
Key Benefits
Crystal Protection
Features a mirror-smooth working surface to prevent the break-up or scratching of sugar crystals during high-speed spinning.
Higher Retention
Delivers higher sugar recovery rates (up to 2% more) and faster separation of syrup from the grain.
Efficiency
Minimizes friction, reduces internal stress on the screen, and dramatically extends the operational lifespan of your centrifuge baskets.
Key Features
Electroforming Technology
Screens are grown atom-by-atom in a bath, creating perfectly smooth, tapered (conical) slots that prevent clogging and reduce wear.
Hard Chrome Plating
Adding a 10 to 14-micron layer of hard chrome over the pure nickel increases the screen's lifespan and prevents corrosion.
Higher Sugar Retention
By controlling slot widths—often down to 0.035 mm (35 microns) for very fine crystals—mills can recover up to 2% more sugar.
