Design Variants

Half Lid Open

The Half Lid Open or Partial Lid Open centrifuge consists of the top Lid with only a portion of the body, which is opened to manually scoop the cake from the basket. For servicing, cleaning and troubleshooting, the entire Monitor casing needs to be opened, increasing servicing and maintenance time, ideal for small scale operations

Full Lid Open

In this model, the Lid is a large rounded dished (or) square shell type support whose diameter matches the diameter of the Monitor casing and can be fully opened to get better access to the basket and inner shell regions, except for the bottom plate, hence cleaning is ideally less time consuming compared to the Half Lid Open model

Round Lid Open

Similar to Half Lid Open, with more area for personnel access during manual scooping of cake

Full Body Open

For special cleaning and maintenance needs, the Full Body Open type model allows for clear visual inspection and cleaning of the basket, monitor casing and bottom liquid discharge plate for repeated product changeovers and strict quality control.

Additional Features

Clean-In-Place (CIP) System

Clean-In-Place (CIP) System

Our centrifuges can be equipped with Clean-In-Place (CIP) systems to ensure thorough cleaning of all product-contact surfaces without dismantling the machine. Strategically placed spray nozzles and rotary spray balls deliver high-pressure cleaning fluids inside the basket, casing, and discharge zones.

Key Features

  • Automatic cleaning cycles integrated with PLC
  • Uniform coverage with optimized spray nozzles
  • Safe drainage of wash liquids

Advantages

  • Ensures GMP compliance and validated cleaning
  • Minimizes downtime between batches
  • Eliminates manual cleaning, improving operator safety
  • Prevents cross-contamination during product changeover

Bag Lifting Device

The Bag Lifting Device is an optional hydraulic hoist provided with Bag Lifting Centrifuges to simplify cake discharge and handling. After the filtration cycle, the hydraulic lifting arrangement raises the filter bag with the cake load directly out of the basket. The device allows 360° free rotation, enabling the operator to conveniently position and discharge the cake at the desired location.

This arrangement eliminates manual scraping, reduces operator exposure to process material, and ensures quick turnaround between batches. The design is compact, reliable, and particularly suitable for handling bulk, sticky, or hazardous cakes where manual discharge would be difficult or unsafe.

Human Machine Interface (PLC Based systems)

Human Machine Interface (PLC Based systems)

A Dedicated Human Machine Interface system is integrated with Joflo machines, which make operation especially flexible, but mostly preferred in Hazardous areas of Application, where risk to human life due to process is imminent. These systems are available in both the traditional Key Pad systems and most modern Touch screen control surfaces. With upgradation from the electronics and implementation of Artificial Intelligence, Joflo shows commitment towards advanced cost-effective machining applications.

Traditional PLC Controllers sourced from Mitsubishi and ABB, are some of the best machine control equipment that have dominated the market since the last few decades, the PLC Controllers are used for semi and fully automatic applications for some of our most complex machines such as the Bottom Discharge centrifuges and the Horizontal Peeler Centrifuges.

Harnessing advanced automation, our systems utilize PLCs to precisely control all machine functions from start-up to cycle completion.

Shaft Protection ​

The centrifuge shaft is one of the most critical rotating elements. It is protected by precision-engineered sleeves, elastomeric or labyrinth seals depending on the process requirements. These prevent slurry or solvent ingress into the bearing housing, ensuring the shaft surface remains unaffected by corrosion or abrasion. The result is improved bearing life, smooth operation, and reduced maintenance frequency, even under harsh chemical and vacuum conditions.

4-Point Suspension

The centrifuge is supported on a 4-point resilient suspension system consisting of specially designed vibration isolation mounts. This system absorbs operational vibrations, dynamic loads, and transient shocks during feeding, acceleration or deceleration. It ensures smooth, low-vibration operation and eliminates the need for heavy foundations. The suspension system greatly enhances mechanical stability, making installation flexible and reducing transmitted vibration to the surrounding structure.

Taper Lock Pulley

A taper lock pulley assembly connects the drive system to the centrifuge basket. The taper bush provides concentric and secure fitting, ensuring superior torque transmission and perfect balance at high speeds. The design facilitates easy dismantling for maintenance or pulley size changes, minimises shaft wear, and guarantees alignment accuracy which is critical for smooth, long-life drive performance.

Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)

A Variable Frequency Drive provides complete electronic control over the centrifuge’s rotational speed and acceleration profile. Operators can program different speed stages for feeding, filtration, washing, and discharge, enabling optimised separation efficiency for each product. Smooth ramp-up and braking prevent mechanical shock to the basket and motor, reducing wear and power consumption. The VFD also provides built-in protection features such as overload, short circuit, and phase loss detection.

Cake Washing Nozzle

During the washing phase, specially designed spray nozzles distribute wash liquid uniformly over the cake surface at controlled pressure. The arrangement ensures thorough displacement of impurities without disturbing the cake layer. This results in higher purity, reduced residual contamination, and consistent product quality. The nozzle design can be customized for different wash patterns or flow rates, based on process requirements.

Cake Thickness Sensors

Advanced non-contact cake thickness sensors monitor the build-up of solids on the basket wall in real-time. These sensors provide continuous feedback to the control system, allowing automatic cut-off of the feed once the desired thickness is achieved. This ensures uniform cake formation, optimized washing and drying cycles, and precise batch-to-batch repeatability. The system reduces operator dependency and improves overall process control.

Zero Speed Interlock

Safety is paramount in centrifuge operation. The zero-speed interlock ensures that mechanical or manual operations such as opening the cover, unlocking the discharge mechanism, or engaging the basket are permitted only after the basket has completely stopped. This prevents accidental exposure to moving parts and complies with international safety standards. The system is integrated with the control panel to provide visual confirmation of “Safe to Open” status.

Vibration Tripper

A continuous vibration monitoring system detects any imbalance or mechanical irregularity in real time. When vibration levels exceed the pre-set safe threshold, the vibration tripper activates an automatic shutdown sequence, protecting bearings, shaft, and structure from damage. This early-warning safety mechanism minimises downtime, prevents catastrophic failure, and helps maintain consistent machine health.

Proximity Sensor

Proximity sensors are integrated at critical positions such as Lid or Monitor Casing Openings, Scraper arrangement and Cake thickness. These sensors ensure correct sequencing of mechanical movements and provide interlock signals to the control logic. Their high reliability and resistance to contamination make them ideal for use in chemical and pharmaceutical environments where precision and safety are vital.

Gas Tight Design

For applications involving solvents, toxic vapours, or inert atmospheres, the centrifuge is designed with a fully gas-tight configuration. All joints, seals, and rotating components are carefully engineered to prevent vapour leakage and ensure safe operation under nitrogen blanketing. The gas-tight construction enables solvent recovery, enhances safety in explosive environments, and meets safety standards.

RPM Sensors

High-precision RPM sensors continuously monitor the basket’s rotational speed and feed data to the control system. These sensors enable accurate speed regulation during different process stages, detect over speed conditions, and provide feedback for braking control. The real-time monitoring enhances process repeatability, operational safety, and ensures the centrifuge operates within design limits at all times.
