In May 2006, during Achema exhibition in Frankfurt Rotex Europe announced the release of the new APEX™ Screener. With its ergonomic design, the APEX screener increases up time by enabling quick screen changes, while retaining the same process efficiency and gyratory-reciprocating motion of the ROTEX Screener.The new APEX screener comes standard with the same great features found on the ROTEX Screener: gyratory-reciprocating motion, positive screen cleaning and bouncing balls to reduce blinding. The ergonomic design of the APEX enables the screener to be maintained by just one person, as all operator lifted components on the APEX weigh less than 40 pounds. In addition, APEX screens weigh only 5 pounds, which enable screen maintenance by only one person. Screens are available in sizes ranging from 1/2” to 325 mesh. Top cover inspection ports allow for easy seal inspection from outside the machine. Discharge outlets on the tail end of the machine are easily accessible for inspection.
The new APEX Screener is the smart solution for dry separation screening of chemicals, fertilizers, clay/non-metallic minerals, industrial sand, salt/potash/soda ash, food processing, sugar, crushed minerals, refractory, water filter/treatment, feed pellets, meat meal, flour and cereals, corn processing, starch, sweeteners, forest products, commodity pellets, resin, pet food, oil seed processing, grain cleaning, engineered pellets, metal powder, rubber processing, soaps and detergents.
