SIEBTECHNIK TEMA provides innovative process engineering solutions for decades. Our experienced engineers support you from the initial idea to the commissioning of your production centrifuge.

Your partner in Process design and Process optimization

Solid-liquid separation is regarded as a key unit operation within chemical engineering. SIEBTECHNIK TEMA relies on decades of experience in this field. Our machines are in operation worldwide in virtually any process within chemical industry and producing industries. We rely on a database with more than 1000 different applications and continuously advance development of our machines.

We support you when it comes to:

  • Improving your process by transitioning from batch to continuous operation
  • Optimizing your product yields and the energy efficiency of your process
  • Finding the right centrifuge for a new site installment or novel process
  • Improvement of production availability
  • Technological upgrading

We are at your side from the beginning – step by step

In-depth assessment of your process requirements: We analyse together with you the current process situation or your process design and separation targets.

Lab tests: We conduct bench-scale tests. We determine material properties and simulate operation and performance of a production centrifuge. This level of testing defines the right type of centrifuge from our equipment portfolio and determines further steps towards.

Pilot tests: We test the application on pilot scale with our continuously operating test units. We have access to 20 test centrifuges and can pilot practically all machine types in our portfolio. This test level provides in-depth information on future machine performance.
Laboratory and pilot tests may be carried out in our Technical Center in Mülheim, at one of our branches or on your site – worldwide. We will define together with you the most suitable test approach.

Scale-Up: Pilot tests provide the basis required for scale-up. When determining the appropriate size and subtype of centrifuge, we rely on our vast process database and various calculation methodologies.

Machine design: Specific design of centrifuges is not limited to the choice of material, wear protection or surface quality. It is our DNA to provide a very high level of custom tailoring if required.
If your product demands a flawless surface, if product characteristics need a protective gas atmosphere or solid discharge needs to be directed upwards, we will provide this to you.
