The Vertical Basket Centrifuges operate under a discontinuous filtration process and are well suited to the efficient separation of Pharmaceutical products and of fine or bulk chemicals. Used where small batch sizes and where products are changed frequently with low process costs, i.e. one machine for many products. No crystal breakage, as the peeling is done at reduced speed. They can handle freely and non freely filtering slurries with equal facility.
