Centrifugal Cleaners – Tissue
This course describes the purpose, design, and operation of centrifugal cleaners installed in tissue machine thin stock systems. The effect of pressure drop, feed consistency, and reject rate on cleaner efficiency is covered, followed by a discussion on the set up and operation of a typical cascade cleaner system.

Sample Video Transcript
Through-flow cleaners also remove lightweight rejects like waxes and plastics, but the accepts and rejects both exit from the bottoms of the cones. Through-flow cleaners work on the same basic principle as the reverse cleaners. The fibers move towards the walls, and lightweight contaminates move to the center. In through-flow cleaners however, the light weight rejects are removed from the center bottom of the cleaner through a tube, and the accepts are removed from an opening in the wall near the bottom of the cone.
