Blau-Metall Grain Sieves
The Blau-Metall sieve portfolio builds on nearly 30 years of experience in the production of robust and highly-precise grain sieves across international ISO standards, European standards, the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations and a variety of national requirements to provide our customers with a complete solution for all grain sieving tasks across all markets.
Blau-Metall test sieves stand out for their particularly robust design and their high precision perforated plate achieved through a production process perfected over nearly three decades and a rigorous quality control program that includes multiple stages of optical measurements on each and every sieve we deliver. The sieves consist of high-stability stainless steel frames with smooth upper edges for easy handling and precision-aperture perforated plates made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, both joined by a stainless-steel tensioning ring and a pair of robust solder joints that form a complete seal that will stay in place over an extended period.
Blau-Metall grain test sieves are compatible with quality sieves of other sieve manufacturers and can be used on sieve shakers and sieve machines of all major suppliers. Given their light weight and handy dimensions, the sieves are also ideally suited for on-site analysis and hand-sieving of grain samples. Our construction methodology with ease of use in mind enables a simple cleaning process for our sieves. With their fully sealed and corrosion- & temperature-resistant design, Blau-Metall sieves can deliver reliable and repeatable sieving results over a period of many years – a stark contrast to comparable sieves with aluminum or galvanized steel components.
