Sieving of Agglomerating Powders with the Air Jet Sieving Machine AS 200 Jet 11 Aug 2010: This technical note describes a method of air jet sieving for agglomerating powders. Air jet sieving is usually the method of choice for dry sieving of materials with particle sizes below 40 microns. However, it is also a faster alternative to vibratory sieving of materials of up to 250 microns. Retsch GmbH
