The Laboratory Sifter is used to determine the fineness of foundry sands. The sifter is designed to hold up to 11 standard half-height, 8-inch or 200mm diameter sieves. The Sand Testing Sieves, Model No. 42106A are purchased separately. A sieve analysis is used to check sand particle size and distribution and to calculate the AFS grain fineness number and surface area. (Note: sieves are sold separately.)

Key Advantages:

• The sifter consists of an electromagnetic vibrator and controls for regulating vibration intensity and frequency. A built-in digital timer controls the shaking time.
• The machine operates very quietly and can easily be kept on run on a laboratory countertop.
