Mechanised Presses
Mechanised presses can be supplied in both sidebar and overhead forms and include features such as double-acting hydraulic opening and closing, hydraulically operated hinged drainage trays, plate movement system. Mechanisation of the filter press invariably includes our plate movement system which is infinitely variable for use on our sidebar or overhead design and also fully adjustable to accommodate polypropylene or cast iron plates. A unique feature of our system is the hold back facility so that only one plate at a time is transfered with a positive stacking when deposited.
