Hydro Extractor Machine
Faster Dewatering. Less Energy. More Uptime.
Our Hydro Extractor Machine (also known as a Centrifuge) is the industry-standard solution for efficient water extraction and pre-drying of textile materials. Using high-speed centrifugal force, it removes moisture rapidly and evenly achieving residual moisture content as low as 15%, depending on fiber type.
Built for reliability and low total cost of ownership, our Hydro Extractors are available in a wide range of basket sizes with capacities from 15 kg to 1,200 kg, making them suitable for operations of every scale.
Advantages
No deformation of packages — fabric and yarn integrity is fully preserved
Excellent rewinding properties — rewinding can often be eliminated entirely
Low residual moisture with even humidity distribution throughout the package
Processes multiple package sizes in a single unit
Operator of centrifuge can also load dryer — streamlining your workflow
Maintenance-free brakes for reduced downtime
- Closed system for effluent — clean, contained operation
- Low compressed air and energy consumption
- Significant energy savings vs. conventional drying methods
- Loading and unloading arrangement included
- Time device with pneumatic system for automated cycle control
- Dyeing tubes last longer due to gentle, controlled extraction
- Low maintenance cost and long service life
Features
Longer working life
Excellent, consistent performance
Low maintenance and power consumption
How It Works
Hydro Extractors use perforated drums or baskets (up to approximately 2,000 mm diameter) suspended on three points in ball-and-socket joints, oscillating vertically for balanced, vibration-free operation. Electric drives power speeds of approximately 750–1,200 RPM, with automatic control across variable ranges. A built-in interlocking lid safety system ensures the motor cannot start until the lid is fully locked and the lid cannot be raised until the basket has come to a complete stop.
Available configurations include pendulating, suspension, cage, and vertical centrifuges, as well as open-width, horizontal, and warp-beam arrangements.
