FILTRATION
Custom made filters are manufactured and designed to the highest standard and tolerances regardless of quantity. Effective particulate retention, efficient flow rates as well as good cake release and clarity of filtrate are all determined by correct selection of filter media.
Complex fluid bed dryer bags, connector chutes, sleeves, dust bags, centrifuge liners, barrel neck and drape over cloths for plate and frame presses to conveyor belts and air slides, are all manufactured to fit most OEMs.
