​Functional principle

In the fully automatic operation the wet chips or the sludge fall over the infeed hopper into the drum of the lifting bottom centrifuge. At this point the chips meet the rotating lifting bottom and are pressed against the drum wall under high centrifugal forces. The hydrau- lically activated lifting bottom moves the chips and/or the sludge upwards to the slot sieve where the liquids are separated from the chips. After a few lifting cycles the dried chips are carried over the edge of drum and quit the centrifuge into the container or discharge con- veyor. The centrifuged liquid can be returned to the production or pumped back for further treatment.
