SIEVE SHAKER AZA0925
The Azalab AZA0925 Sieve Shaker is a precision-engineered laboratory instrument designed to deliver accurate, repeatable particle size analysis of granular and powdered materials. Engineered to replicate the effectiveness of manual sieving, the AZA0925 combines circular vibratory motion with controlled mechanical tapping, ensuring superior particle separation across a broad range of sieve sizes.
This dual-action mechanism provides significantly better separation efficiency than vibration-only shakers. Mechanical tapping reduces particle agglomeration and promotes effective stratification—critical when testing irregular particles, clay-coated aggregates, soil fines, mineral powders, cementitious materials, and industrial powders.
Description
The AZA0925 is compatible with 8-inch and 12-inch diameter test sieves, making it suitable for diverse laboratory and field testing environments. Built on a rugged steel frame with noise-insulated housing, it is designed for long-term operation under demanding conditions. The unit typically accommodates up to 6 full-height sieves or 13 half-height sieves, plus pan and lid, in a single test cycle.
An integrated digital timer (0–60 minutes) ensures consistent test durations, minimizing operator dependency and improving repeatability. The mechanical tapping system simulates hand tapping used in manual sieving, which is essential for separating cohesive or fine materials that tend to clump.

The AZA0853 consists of a polished brass cup mounted on an adjustable bracket. The cup is repeatedly raised and dropped from a fixed height of 1 cm onto a hard rubber base by means of a manually operated cam mechanism. A built-in mechanical counter accurately records the number of blows, ensuring compliance with testing standards and reducing operator error.
