Abstract

In a sieving apparatus a suction chamber is connected to a source of vacuum. The chamber is connected to sieve by a plurality of air channels. Air inlets supply air to the underside of the sieve to agitate the material being sieved. A sieve case has a cover with apertures to permit more air to enter the sieve case to further agitate the material being sieved.
