Separators, decanters and centrifuges for the beverage industry
The expansion into the global beverage markets sparks the competition – and the demand by the consumers for quality and product variety is on the rise. At the same time, pressure on the market because of prices increases. Centrimax supplies used separators, decanters, and worm-screen centrifuges that are reasonably priced to the beverage industry, e.g., for the production of tea, coffee, soy products, wine, must, etc.
All above-mentioned centrifuges made by GEA Westfalia Separator, Alfa Laval, Flottweg, Siebtechnik GmbH, etc. are subject to Centrimax in-house general overhaul and receive brand-new PLC control systems. Thus, you receive a reliable, reasonably priced centrifuge that will be delivered at short notice. Subsequently, you can integrate the equipment seamlessly into your current production process.
Separators for drinks
Centrimax supplies factory- and service-rebuilt separators with warranty for use in the drinks industry.
Decanters may be used in the pre-clarification of tea extracts before separators in downstream processes take over the final task very fine clarification.
Unwanted solids may be removed with separators from the thin extract after roasting, grinding and extraction. The same procedure may be applied to the thick extract that is produced during the next stage of the process. The coffee extract may be separated from the solids discharged by the separators with the help of decanters. Coffee oil may be recovered from the compressed residues with the help of tricanters and downstream separators.
Decanters may be used to separate the soy beans ground with water into solids (Okara) and soy milk. Separators in the following stages may be employed to remove oil and very finely clarify the soy milk.
Most contaminants and microorganisms along with the cloudiness are usually removed with self-cleaning disc separators. Rotating brush filters may be usefully installed upstream with the aim of keeping coarse solids away from the separators.
The timely clarification of young wines benefits subsequent wine quality. That's why self-cleaning disc separators may be used to separate the yeast from the wine immediately after completion of the alcohol fermentation.
Fining may be achieved with self-cleaning disc separators on completion of the reaction time. The service lives of downstream filters may in this way be considerably increased.
Here, self-cleaning disc separators may assume the task of removing residual yeasts and removing lees from fining.
Self-cleaning hermetic disc separators may be used to remove yeast from sparkling wines fermented either in bulk vats or using the transfer method.

The must running from screw presses is usually very cloudy and may be clarified in advance with the help of decanters. Decanting is beneficial in that operation is continuous and that the lees discharged may be sent to landfill.
Like the must lees removed by separators, floor sedimentation from the must tank may be thickened with the help of decanters. This will result in among other things a considerable increase in the performance of the downstream lees filter.
Yeast concentrations from the fermentation tank and from the separator that are produced after first racking may be thickened with decanters. This will considerably relieve pressure on downstream filters.
Two-stage decanters may be used to remove water from thin sludge. Such decanters permit fully continuous operation while producing sludge that may be sent to landfills.
Centrifuges for drinks
Centrimax supplies factory- and service-rebuilt centrifuges with warranty for use in the drinks industry.
Unwanted solids may be removed with separators from the thin and thick extracts after roasting, grinding and extracting. The coffee extract contained in the solids discharged by the separators may be separated with the help of worm-screen centrifuges and returned to the process.
