A device for sieving foreign bodies out of a material stream, comprising:
- a roller sieve comprising a plurality of rollers disposed in parallel to one another;
- and
- discs disposed on the plurality of rollers such that they are perpendicular to the axial extension of the rollers,
- wherein the discs of adjacent rollers are engaged so as form slot areas between the discs and the adjacent rollers through which a first portion of the material stream can flow,
- wherein the discs disposed on each roller comprise
- impulse discs having a peripheral contour comprised of at least one corner, the peripheral contour of the impulse discs configured to disaggregate a material stream disposed on the roller sieve, and
- conveyor discs having a peripheral contour comprised of a series of indentations, the conveyor discs configured to promote friction to convey a second portion of the material stream in a transport direction, and
- wherein the conveyor discs disposed on each roller have varying diameters.
