Vibratory Sizers
Vibratory sizers machinery refers to specialized equipment used to separate bulk materials by particle size using controlled vibration. These machines are a step up from standard vibrating screens, offering multiple precise separations in a compact footprint—ideal for industries like mining, food processing, and recycling.
⚙️ What Makes Vibratory Sizers Unique
Multi-deck design: Often equipped with 2 to 7 decks for multiple size separations in one pass.
Linear or elliptical motion: Ensures efficient stratification and high throughput.
Compact and robust: Designed for continuous operation with minimal maintenance.
Energy-efficient: Some models use a single motor for multiple decks.
🌀 Common Types
Type Motion Best For
MS Sizers Linear High-capacity, energy-efficient sorting
ME/MEL Sizers Linear (dual) Fine particle separation, longer decks
BI-FLOW Sizers Dual-deck Fine sands, space-saving applications
🧪 Applications
Aggregates & minerals: Grading sand, gravel, ores
Food industry: Sorting nuts, grains, spices
Recycling: Separating plastics, metals, glass
Chemicals & fertilizers: Particle size control
For example, Rollier’s vibratory sizers offer up to 7 separations and are known for their low power consumption and easy screen replacement. Similarly, NutTech’s shaking decks are tailored for food-grade applications like sorting almonds or peanuts.
Greater Manchester is a metropolitan county and combined authority area in North West England, with a population of 2.8 million;[2] comprising ten metropolitan boroughs: Bolton, Bury, Oldham, Rochdale, Stockport, Tameside, Trafford, Wigan, and the cities of Manchester and Salford. Greater Manchester was created on 1 April 1974, as a result of the Local Government Act 1972, and designated a functional city region on 1 April 2011. Greater Manchester is formed of parts of the historic counties of Lancashire, Cheshire and the West Riding of Yorkshire.
Greater Manchester spans 493 square miles (1,277 km2),[3] which roughly covers the territory of the Greater Manchester Built-up Area, the second most populous urban area in the UK. Though geographically landlocked, it is connected to the sea by the Manchester Ship Canal which is still open to shipping in Salford and Trafford. Greater Manchester borders the ceremonial counties of Cheshire (to the south-west and south), Derbyshire (to the south-east), West Yorkshire (to the north-east), Lancashire (to the north) and Merseyside (to the west). There is a mix of high-density urban areas, suburbs, semi-rural and rural locations in Greater Manchester, but land use is mostly urban—the product of concentric urbanisation and industrialisation which occurred mostly during the 19th century when the region flourished as the global centre of the cotton industry. It has a focused central business district, formed by Manchester city centre and the adjoining parts of Salford and Trafford, but Greater Manchester is also a polycentric county with ten metropolitan districts, each of which has at least one major town centre and outlying suburbs.
Greater Manchester is governed by the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA), which consists of political leaders from each of the ten metropolitan borough councils, plus a directly elected mayor, with responsibility for economic development, regeneration and transport. Andy Burnham is the inaugural Mayor of Greater Manchester, elected in 2017. For the 12 years following 1974, the county had a two-tier system of local government; district councils shared power with the Greater Manchester County Council. The county council was abolished in 1986 and so its districts (the metropolitan boroughs) effectively became unitary authority areas. However, the metropolitan county continued to exist in law and as a geographic frame of reference,[4] and as a ceremonial county, with a Lord Lieutenant and a High Sheriff. Several county-wide services were co-ordinated through the Association of Greater Manchester Authorities between 1985 and 2011.
Before the creation of the metropolitan county, the name SELNEC was used for the area, from the initials of "South East Lancashire North East Cheshire". Greater Manchester is an amalgamation of 70 former local government districts from the former administrative counties of Lancashire, Cheshire, the West Riding of Yorkshire and eight independent county boroughs.[5] Since deindustrialisation in the mid-20th century, Greater Manchester has emerged as a major centre for services, media and digital industries, and is renowned for guitar and dance music and its association football teams.[6]
