In industrial separation, the design of your centrifuge basket plays a critical role in performance. The two most common types—Cylindrical and Conical baskets—serve different purposes. Here’s how to choose the best one for your operation.
Cylindrical Centrifuge Basket (Straight-Wall Design)
Featuring a uniform diameter and vertical wall, this design relies solely on centrifugal force to hold solids against the basket while liquid passes through the screen or perforations.
Key Advantages
Even distribution of centrifugal force for consistent separation
Forms a stable cake, ideal for thorough dewatering
Longer solid retention time improves moisture removal
Widely used in wedge wire and perforated designs
This design is optimized for maximum dryness, making it perfect for applications where residual moisture must be minimized.
Conical Centrifuge Basket (Tapered-Wall Design)
With its angled wall, the conical basket adds an axial force to the centrifugal force, naturally guiding solids toward the discharge end.
Key Advantages
Self-propelling solids movement for smoother operation
Faster discharge cycles and higher processing capacity
Minimizes cake buildup and reduces downtime
Commonly used in continuous centrifuge systems
This design prioritizes efficiency and reliability, ideal for high-volume processing and automated systems.
Choosing between cylindrical and conical baskets depends on your goal: deeper dewatering or faster throughput. The right design can significantly enhance your centrifuge’s productivity and end-product quality.
