Industrial Centrifuge Buyback | Dolphin Centrifuge

Buyback

Industrial Centrifuge buyback by Dolphin Centrifuge is one way to monetize your used centrifuge inventory. Send us details & photographs of your centrifuge, and we will get back to you with an offer.

We can offer you credit for your old centrifuge towards purchasing a new system from Dolphin Centrifuge. We also provide full centrifuge service and repair if you prefer to keep your equipment running.

Consignment

If a customer has a functional centrifuge system originally supplied by Dolphin Centrifuge or others, the customer may choose to send the centrifuge to Dolphin Centrifuge on consignment.

The customer retains ownership of the equipment on consignment centrifuges, and Dolphin Centrifuge will offer the centrifuge to potential buyers.

Turn Idle Equipment Into Cash

Industrial centrifuges are high-value assets. If you have a centrifuge that is no longer in service—whether from a process change, plant closure, upgrade, or simply because it needs repair—Dolphin Centrifuge will buy it from you. We purchase disc stack separators, decanter centrifuges, and complete centrifuge systems from any manufacturer.

Because we operate a full-service centrifuge repair and rebuild facility, we can refurbish equipment that other buyers would consider scrap. This means we can offer competitive prices for centrifuges in any condition—including non-functional units.

What We Buy

Equipment Types

• Disc Stack Separators: Self-cleaning and manual-clean models from Alfa Laval, Westfalia, Mitsubishi, and others
• Decanter Centrifuges: Horizontal scroll decanters of all sizes and manufacturers
• Complete Systems: Centrifuge skids with pumps, controls, heaters, and piping
• Spare Parts & Components: Bowl assemblies, disc stacks, spindles, gearboxes, and centrifuge parts
• Ancillary Equipment: Feed pumps, heat exchangers, control panels, and VFDs that were part of a centrifuge system

Any Condition

• Working: Operational centrifuges ready to run—highest value
• Needs Repair: Units with known issues such as bad bearings, worn seals, or vibration problems
• Non-Functional: Centrifuges that have not run in years or have unknown condition
• Incomplete: Missing parts, controls, or accessories—we still want the core rotating assembly
• Damaged: Crash-damaged bowls, corroded frames, or fire-damaged equipment

How the Buyback Process Works

1. Send Us Information: Email photos of the centrifuge (nameplate, bowl, frame, control panel) to sales@dolphincentrifuge.com along with the model number, serial number (if visible), and a brief description of the condition and history. Alternatively, call (248) 522-2573 to discuss.

3. We Make an Offer: You receive a firm purchase offer. No obligation—accept or decline at your discretion.
4. We Arrange Pickup: Once you accept, we coordinate freight and rigging to pick up the equipment from your facility. We handle all logistics at no cost to you for most locations in the continental U.S.
5. You Get Paid: Payment is issued upon receipt and verification of the equipment at our Warren, MI facility.

Trade-In Program

Upgrading to a newer or larger centrifuge system? Apply the value of your existing equipment toward the purchase of a new Dolphin centrifuge system. Contact us for a trade-in quote — our program makes upgrading more affordable:

• We credit the agreed trade-in value directly against your new system purchase price
• We handle removal and shipping of your old equipment
• Trade-in can be combined with our rental program—rent a unit while we build your new system, then trade in the old one at delivery

What Information Do We Need?

To provide an accurate offer, please gather the following if available:

• Photos: Nameplate (with model and serial number), overall view, bowl, frame, and control panel
• Model & Serial Number: Found on the nameplate, typically on the frame or bowl housing
• Condition Description: Is it running? When was it last operated? Any known issues?
• Location: City and state where the equipment is located (for freight estimation)
• Accessories: List any included items such as spare bowl, tools, manuals, spare parts, or control panel

Do not worry if you cannot provide all of this information. We can work with photos alone and will ask follow-up questions as needed.

Not Ready to Sell?

If you are not ready to part with your centrifuge but it is sitting idle, consider our centrifuge rental program as an alternative revenue source, or contact us about our repair services to get it back in operation.
