Filter presses & filtration systems

The filter press is the last wet stage: it turns slurry into filter cake and filtrate. It works in cycles, so it has to be matched to the continuous slurry supply.

PTMS-FP Filter press

Automatic filter press with hydraulic cylinders, control cabinet, plate pack and plate-shifting rail

PTMS-FP Filter press

From slurry to filter cake: solid–liquid separation

Feed pressure moves slurry into the chambers. Liquid passes through the cloth and solids form a filter cake. The cake is discharged before the next cycle.

Focused applications	Kaolin, ceramic slurry and suitable mineral or industrial slurries.
Key configuration	Filter area, cloth, chambers, feed pump and discharge.
Performance basis	Evaluate the sample, moisture target and filtration cycle together.
Specifications	On request, after your feed data or sample are reviewed. Price on request.

Hydraulic clamping closes the plates; it is distinct from feed-filtration pressure. Performance is confirmed by testing and technical agreement.

Treat the pump and filter press as one system

Coordinate continuous slurry supply with cyclic filtration. (1) Slurry & buffer — flow, concentration and surge arrangement. (2) Feeding — filling duty, pressure and controls. (3) Filter & discharge — chambers, cycle and discharge interfaces. Feed filtration: the feed pump drives slurry into the chambers as cake builds. Membrane squeeze: requires membrane plates and a squeeze system, separate from feed filtration. Duty matching: low-flow protection, pressure control and surge capacity are system-level decisions.
