What Is Great Western Manufacturing Equipment?
Great Western Manufacturing is a respected name in custom processing machinery for the food and industrial sectors. The company designs and manufactures vibratory sifters, screeners, and related processing equipment for a wide range of applications, including cereal and grain processing, bakery ingredient handling, snack food production, pet food manufacturing, chemical processing, plastics compounding, and mineral processing.
Great Western equipment is known for its robust construction and reliable performance in demanding food production environments. Their vibratory sifters are commonly found in flour mills, cereal plants, bakery ingredient facilities, and other operations where consistent particle size control is essential for product quality and safety.

How Do I Identify My Great Western Manufacturing Model?
- Check the nameplate. Look for the model number, serial number, and screen diameter on the equipment nameplate, typically on the base or housing of the sifter.
