It is a screw-type solid–liquid separator designed to separate solid and liquid fractions from animal manure (cow, pig, poultry, horse). It reduces volume, produces a transportable dry solid for fertilizer and a liquid fraction suitable for dilution and irrigation.
Typical capacity is 15–20 m³/h (depends on model and manure consistency). Actual throughput varies with feed concentration, pump rate and particle size.
Standard specification uses a 4 kW motor and is designed for a 380 V three-phase supply (confirm voltage for your region or model).
Overall dimensions are approximately 2200 × 610 × 1350 mm and the machine weight is around 350 kg (model-dependent).
It is suitable for cow, pig, poultry and horse manure, and generally works with other livestock slurries having similar particle sizes.
Inlet diameter is 76 mm, standard screen diameter is 200 mm, and the liquid drain diameter is 110 mm (model-specific variations may apply).
Typical construction uses carbon steel combined with 304 stainless steel for the screen and wetted parts; some models use ductile iron plus 304 SS components for durability and corrosion resistance.
A pump feeds slurry into the separator. The rotating extrusion screw pushes material toward a progressively narrowing end while a stainless steel screen allows expelled liquid to pass out via the drain. Solids are compacted and discharged continuously.
No flocculants are required for normal operation; the screw extrusion and screening provide mechanical separation without added chemicals.
Solids are substantially drier, largely odor-reduced and suitable for storage or use as farmland fertilizer without producing leachate. The liquid fraction is wetter (contains a high share of water) with lower nutrient concentration and can be diluted for irrigation or fertiliser use.
Moisture content varies with feedstock and operating conditions; solids are significantly drier than raw slurry and are easier to transport and store. For precise moisture targets, tests on your material and adjustment of feed rate/pressure are recommended.
Provide a level, solid foundation and anchor bolts for mounting. Connect to a compatible slurry pump and a 3-phase power supply. Ensure appropriate drainage for the liquid outlet and allow space for maintenance and material handling equipment (forklift or crane for positioning).
Regularly clean the screen and inlet, inspect and replace worn screens or screw flights, lubricate bearings as specified, check motor and electrical connections, and inspect seals and bearings for wear. Follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule.
Always isolate power before maintenance, never reach into the inlet or screw while running, provide guarding around moving parts, use PPE (gloves, eye protection, boots), and ensure only trained personnel operate the machine.
Common spare parts include screens, screw augers, bearings and electrical components. Warranty and after-sales service terms vary by supplier—contact your vendor for specific warranty coverage, spare-parts availability and local service options.
