Commercial Solid-Liquid
Manure Separators
NexAgri screw press separators divide livestock slurry into solid and liquid fractions for further handling. The listed 40–50% dry-matter range depends on the incoming material, screen, feed rate and discharge adjustment. Select the system around daily slurry volume and the intended downstream process.
Why Separate Commercial Manure?
Plan separation around the incoming slurry and the storage, treatment or use required for each output fraction.
Further-Use Planning
Separated solids may be evaluated for Recycled Manure Solids (RMS) bedding within an appropriate treatment and hygiene programme. Separation does not sterilize material or establish its suitability for direct bedding use.
Material Balance
Review liquid and solid storage from the actual material balance, collection volume and retention requirements. Separation does not establish a fixed lagoon-volume reduction or remove the need for agitation and inspection.
HL280-2 Listed Range
The HL280-2 is listed at 4–15 m³/h, while the HL200-2 is listed at 2–7 m³/h; both list a 5.5 kW motor. Actual throughput depends on slurry consistency, fibre and bedding content, screen selection and operating settings.
Heavy-Duty CP Extrusion System
Evaluate cow, pig or poultry slurry against moisture, fibre, bedding and abrasive content. Confirm feed preparation, operating duty and the selected configuration before quotation.
Screw Press Extrusion Mechanism
Screw Press Dewatering & Output Adjustment
A screw shaft conveys and presses slurry against a stainless-steel screen, separating liquid from retained solids. Adjust the feed and discharge arrangement for the selected material, and plan handling, storage and any further treatment for both outputs.
AISI 304 Stainless Steel
The listed screw shaft and screen use AISI 304 stainless steel. Confirm material, screen specification and wear requirements for the slurry and any abrasive bedding content.
Adjustable Output
The mechanical counter-weight system adjusts discharge resistance. Output moisture also depends on input consistency, feed rate, screen condition and operating settings.
Heavy-Duty Housing
The listed ductile-iron housing supports the extrusion assembly. Confirm mounting, operating loads and inspection requirements for the selected machine.
Screen Clearing & Maintenance
Screw movement helps clear material from the screen during operation. Inspect the screen and screw, remove obstructions and clean according to the supplied procedure; fibrous or abrasive inputs can require additional attention.
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) & Value Guide
Compare equipment, installation, energy, wear parts and downstream handling against the current manure-management routine and local costs.
1. Solids Reuse & Processing Costs
Record current bedding purchases and the quantity, moisture and consistency of separated solids expected from the selected process. Assess any proposed reuse with the farm’s treatment, storage and hygiene requirements.
Include additional processing, monitoring, labour and residual bedding purchases in the comparison. Any change in procurement cost depends on the usable output and the farm’s approved management routine.
2. Storage & Liquid Handling
Plan storage and transfer for both liquid and solid fractions. Evaluate pumping, agitation, sediment and remaining solids against the downstream equipment and land-application process; separation alone does not make liquid irrigation-ready or prevent pipeline blockage.
3. Further Treatment & Market Requirements
If composting or fertilizer production is planned, define further treatment, storage, nutrient testing and applicable local requirements. Transport, processing and market demand determine whether the resulting material has commercial value; sales revenue is not an equipment guarantee.
Separation Process & Cost Inputs
- Equipment ScopeSeparator model, pump, screen, piping and electrical controls.
- Site & UtilitiesCollection pit, foundations, power, access and discharge arrangements.
- Daily ProcessingFeed volume, operating hours, electricity, labour and further treatment.
- Maintenance & OutputsScreen and screw wear, cleaning, storage, transport and end-use requirements.
Compare the complete process with current farm costs. Savings and revenue depend on the usable outputs, treatment scope and local conditions.
Technical Specifications
Use the listed model ranges as selection inputs; confirm throughput and output moisture for the actual slurry, bedding and processing window.

Solid-Liquid Manure Separators FAQs
Practical selection and operating answers for commercial manure-separation projects.
What output dryness can a screw press separator achieve?
The page lists a 40–50% dry-matter range for separated solids. Actual output depends on manure consistency, fibre content, bedding material, feed rate and the mechanical counter-weight adjustment at the discharge outlet.
How do I choose between the available separator capacities?
The listed handling range is 2–7 m³/h for one model and 4–15 m³/h for the larger model, both with 5.5 kW motors. Select capacity from the manure volume, collection schedule, slurry consistency and the required processing window rather than herd size alone.
Can the separator process manure containing sand bedding?
Sand is abrasive, so identify its quantity and particle characteristics during project planning. Review screw-shaft and screen wear specifications, any upstream grit removal, inspection intervals and replacement parts for the actual input material.
What equipment is included in a separator set?
The listed complete set includes the separator, a liquid submersible pump, PVC piping and an electrical control cabinet. Confirm the exact scope, installation boundary and any site-specific supporting equipment in the approved quotation.
What maintenance does a screw press separator require?
Routine maintenance should include gearbox lubrication, inspection of the 304 stainless-steel screen and screw components, and flushing when required by the material handled. Screen wear intervals vary with operating hours, input solids and abrasive bedding content.
