Hydro-Extractors are also called Centrifuges. Centrifuges are for water extraction (dewatering, pre-drying) of textile materials. Values of approx. 15% for residual moisture content can be achieved depending on the type of textile fiber. Centrifuges with perforated drums or baskets (Ø up to approx. 2000 mm) which oscillate vertically in ball-and-socket joints suspended on three points are produced in various designs as pendulating, suspension, cage and vertical centrifuges, also with so called gliding support bearings as gliding support centrifuges or in horizontal resp.
vertical arrangements as open-width, horizontal and warp-beam centrifuges, etc. Most centrifuges have electric drives for speeds of approx. 750-1200 rpm and are generally provided with automatic control over various ranges.
For safety reasons, an interlocking lid is essential on a centrifuge so that the motor cannot be started until the lid is locked, nor the lid rose until the basket is stationary again after the machine has been stopped.
