Improve your analyses and products with RETSCH!

Sieving analyses with RETSCH instruments produce exact and reproducible

results, due to the unique technologies in the design of our test sieves and
sieve shakers. Customized evaluation software, sample dividers and an
extensive range of accessories complement our solutions in the field of
analytical sieving. This is the reason why RETSCH meets and exceeds the
high requirements of its customers.

Test sieves

Many unique details make RETSCH products stand out – for optimal
results and maximum working efficiency. Convince yourself!

Superior drive mechanism

The core of each RETSCH projection

sieve shaker is the electromagnetic
drive. It produces an optimal throwing
motion that moves the product to be
sieved equally over the whole sieving
®
EasySieve software surface. The drive can take a high
stress load and is very effective, so
that the sieving time is greatly reduced.
Furthermore, this patented RETSCH
technology runs without wear and
does not require maintenance.

Comfortable handling and efficient working

Clamping test sieves does not get any easier, faster and safer than with the
clamping device “comfort”. The trick: simply press the upper lever to clamp
the sieves tight. After the sieving is completed, the sieve stack can be with-
drawn without having to completely take off the lid. Thus, time and power
Cleaners and dryers
are saved.

In the AS 300 control and the AS 400 control, 9 different

parameter combinations can be saved in the sieve shaker.
Thus, repetitive sieve analyses can be performed quickly memory

and efficiently. Errors due to wrong parameter entries are PROG SET
prevented.

with equal acceleration” means obtaining worldwide comparable and repro-
ducible results, completely independent of operational parameters such as
power frequency, load, age or condition of the machine. An advantage that
only RETSCH sieve shakers offer.

Calibration

All RETSCH analytical sieve shakers of the series “control” and all RETSCH
test sieves can be calibrated and thus may be used in quality control
according to DIN EN ISO 9000 ff. RETSCH supplies high-quality products
that you can rely on.

Fit for the future

All RETSCH model “control” sieve shakers are equipped

with a serial interface to allow for an automated workflow.
®
Using the software EasySieve , the sieve shaker can be
operated from a PC and the whole sieving process can be
monitored and documented, visible for you on the screen.

High quality test sieves

Due to an optimised and highly modern production

process, RETSCH offers you test sieves of unparalleled
quality and precision. Thus, RETSCH meets and exceeds
the highest requirements that are demanded today in
particle size analyses. Better sieves guarantee better,
exact results.

Form follows function

RETSCH laboratory instruments also show their technical superiority from the
outside. The modern and ergonomic design of the instruments expresses the
many technical innovations that are incorporated in them. The AS 200 was
already awarded a design prize.

Innovative technology that sets standards worldwide!

RETSCH analytical sieve shakers are used in research & development, quality
control of raw materials, interim and finished products as well as in production
monitoring. The three-stage series AS 200 enables each user to select the
suitable instrument according to his individual requirements and budget. The
AS 300 is designed for larger feed quantities. All “control” models are suitable
as measuring instrument according to DIN EN ISO 9000 ff.

AS 400 control

Sieving on one level

The RETSCH AS 400 control is used for the sieving of

dry goods with test sieves of a diameter up to 400 mm.
In this, the uniform, horizontal circular motion ensures
exact separation of the product to be sieved. Fine and
coarse-grained goods as found in the areas of milling,
brewing, chemical industry, quarrying, soils, woodworking
and plastics industry, can be exactly separated with the
AS 400 control. The horizontal circular motion of the pro-
duct to be sieved is particularly suitable for the separation
of certain products, as milled grain, splints, and similar
materials. For the testing of plastics (grainy moulding
materials), the DIN 53 477 even requires the circular
sieving motion.

Simple, fast, and reliable

®
EasySieve , the software for particle size analyses, ex-
ceeds manual evaluation in many aspects, due to the fact
that the software is able to automatically perform the
necessary measurement and weighing procedures – from
the registration of the weight of the sieve up to the eva-
luation of the data. It is more simple and more comfort-
able to use than ever before, and, to put it simply, “easy”.

Due to the logical design of the software it is easier for

the user to get started with the program. The program
leads the user through the process step by step. More-
over, the abundance of evaluation possibilities allows for
absolute flexibility with regard to adjustment to deman-
ding and individual tasks.
