GL&V DF-6000™ Deflaker

The most efficient and cost effective deflaking technology available

DF-6000™ Deflaker
The development of the DF-6000™ deflaker stems from
over 60 years of DD refiner and deflaker design. The
DF-6000 Deflaker’s robust cast iron and stainless steel
construction is based on GL&V’s highly successful
DD®6000 refiner.

The DF-6000 deflaker includes a completely removable and

re-buildable rotating assembly for ease of maintenance
and increased reliability and a hinged access door for
easy access to the deflaking cavity for filling changes
without requiring the disconnection of either the stock
inlet or outlet lines.

The deflaker combines the features of a fixed deflaker

ring set and a mating rotating set mounted to a head
which is coupled to a drive motor. The distance between
the mating ring sets is fixed at installation, resulting in
a more uniform clearance between the rotor and stator
sets producing uniform low energy deflaking without the
introduction of additional refining.

Tangential Inlet and Outlet
GL&V’s proven tangential inlet technology permits
operation at higher capacity compared to similar sized
competitor units though the pre-rotation of incoming stock.

Enhancements and Features

• Simple hub and rotor arrangement for easy filling
changes.
• The rotating assembly consists of an alloy steel shaft
supported by a spherical roller bearing and a thrust
roller bearing.
• Effective labyrinth type deflaking fillings repeatedly
accelerate and decelerate flakes, resulting in the
loosening and eventual release of the bonds between
the individual fibers without introducing additional
refining or dropping freeness. Other deflaker filling
designs are available for specialized applications.
• A hard faced wear sleeve minimizes frictional damage
from gland packing. Additional mechanical seal
options are available.
• O-Ring seal on door.

Available Options
• Non-lubricated disc coupling
• Electronic safety pressure system
• Rotor removal arm
• Spiral Trac
• Mechanical seal
