Importance of Sugar Centrifugals in Sugar Production
Sugar centrifugals play a pivotal role in sugar production by facilitating the crucial step of separating sugar crystals from molasses after the crystallization process. This separation process is vital for achieving the desired purity, color, and granulation of the final sugar product. By effectively removing impurities and excess moisture, centrifugals ensure the production of high-quality refined sugar products that meet industry standards and consumer expectations.
Types of Sugar Centrifugals
Western States manufactures both batch and continuous centrifuges for processing all grades of sugar and sugar cane. Western States centrifuges are used in both the beet and cane sugar industries, as well as other non-sucrose applications such as the manufacturing of the sweeteners dextrose and fructose.
Batch Centrifugals
Batch centrifugals are a type of centrifuge used in various industries, including sugar production, for separating solids from liquids or for classifying particles based on density. In the context of sugar production, batch centrifugals are specifically designed for the separation of sugar crystals from mother liquor (molasses) after crystallization.
Continuous Centrifugals
Continuous centrifuges are a type of centrifuge used in various industries, including sugar production, for separating solids from liquids or for classifying particles based on density. Continuous centrifuges are an integral part of modern sugar production, offering high efficiency, throughput, and continuous operation, which are essential for meeting the demands of large-scale industrial processing. Their automation features and consistent performance make them a preferred choice for many sugar refineries and processing plants worldwide.

Working principle.
When the basket rotates at high speed, it will produce a centrifugal force thousands of times greater than its own weight, so that the sugar paste on the basket wall is subjected to the centrifugal force, and the granulated sugar crystal are intercepted in the basket by the screen to form a filter layer,Under the action of centrifugal force, molasses will pass through the filter layer and screen, and finally flow out of the basket hole wall to complete the separation of crystal and mother liquor.The primary sugar paste separation can be divided into four stages: sugar layer formation stage, centrifugal molasses removal stage,molasses washing stage and drying(separating) stage.
