Safeguarding food safety involves eliminating foreign bodies, lumps and metal parts that can enter production flow together with commonly used ingredients, such as flour and sugar, to name most used ones in food production.
Sifting these particles through a size separation process is an excellent and easy solution.
In Virto-Cuccolini range of vibrating sieves, this application can be performed by various models, such as VPB / VPM, VP1 and VP2, depending on case parameters such as available installation space, the expected amount of oversize product and the type of production cycle (batch or continuous), which ultimately determines the vibrating sieve maintenance and cleaning procedures.
In the case of flour, among processing residues, organic fragments from grinded cereals can also be found, as it can be seen in this video, taken from our laboratory tests:
