Being able to change sieves more quickly was the point of departure in developing a new type of sieve fixing device. The new device means that it now takes less than two minutes to change sieves for each sieve layer. This is an ideal solution for companies that work with various products and varieties.

The new system comprises a tensioner spring. Pressure is exerted on the lever and pulled over a certain point, thus releasing the sieve.

The advantages of this system are:

• A mechanical solution
• Simple to use
• The time it takes to change sieves is shortened (it takes less than two minutes for each sieve layer so that stoppages are minimal)
• Sound construction
• No special tools are required
• It can be fitted by the user, or by DT Dijkstra as service
• Low investment, short payback period
