Our Finex® 22 achieves accurate separation of oversized particles from a difficult-to-sieve viscous material

Tahini paste is a commonly used ingredient in various cuisines. Its consistency can range from slightly runny to thick and viscous, depending on the temperature and the fineness of the ground sesame seeds.

During the fine grinding of the sesame seeds, oversized contaminants are often introduced from the grinding machinery. These particles are too small for conventional systems to detect and thus impact the quality of the final product. Therefore, an effective screening process before packaging is crucial for minimizing physical contamination risks and complying with food safety regulations (e.g., BRC, FDA). This also protects your brand reputation and prevents costly product recalls.

In this demonstration video, our Finex® 22 is used to remove metallic fragments and plastic particles from tahini paste after ball mill. Our equipment features a unique adjustable weight setting, allowing fine tuning of sieving performance and better sieving rates.  The tahini paste is screened using mesh sizes of 850, 600, and 400 microns to achieve a contamination-free paste with the desired consistency. The 400-micron mesh worked best for this application, as it effectively removed all oversized particles and improved productivity.

Our Finex® 22 is a compact, high-performance solution ideal for the food and beverage industry, ensuring accurate grading and contaminant removal from wet and dry applications. This versatile industrial screener outperforms traditional separators by delivering improved productivity, superior product quality, and reduced product loss.
