VIBRATORY SIEVE

ca: TAMÍS VIBRATORI

es: TAMIZ VIBRATORIO

Vibratory sieve: these are industrial sieves, run by electricity and supplied with different sized meshes. When working, the motor vibrates and passes slips and glazes through the mesh to clean and mix. There are many types and sizes that are known under different names such as clay mixer, clay reclaimer and sieve vibrator. They all have two sections, the container and the mixer. The mixer can be part of the machine or separate and for small quantities you can buy metal mixers (beates) in one piece of different lengths to use with an electric drill.
