20 years of flottweg SIMP DRIVE®

The Flottweg Simp Drive® is an energy-saving drive for decanters with a very wide range of applications for demanding separation tasks for which ongoing adaptation of operating parameters is required.

20 years of experience, 20 years of efficiency at the top

Flottweg developed the Simp Drive® in 1994. The drive concept reduces the energy consumption of the centrifuge and reliably transmits high torque. Its differential speed can also be controlled with precision. This wealth of experience, combined with our commitment to quality and value, makes our decanter drive a benchmark that has never been equaled.

Overview of the advantages and customer benefits

High throughput performance due to high bowl speed and precisely adjusted differential speed

Simple display and regulation of the scroll torque including overload protection

The scroll speed and differential speed can be controlled easily, because they are independent from one another

The Simp-Drive® for a broad range of applications in which continuous adaptation of operating parameters is required

High efficiency due to consistently high dry substance value (DS = the higher this value, the dryer the separated solid)

High flexibility in selection of the operating speed

The machine can be cleared out even at a standstill, because the scroll can nevertheless still be turned (no need to dismantle system components)

The belt drive used means low maintenance costs, improved damping, low weight, and permits higher speeds
