Vacuum belt filter system for light metal machining
Our customer
An automotive manufacturer that performs machining of light-metal components.
Our solution
For light metal machining, we supplied a vacuum belt filter system with a preseparator and centrifuges. The complete system combines process fluid filtration with the mechanical discharge of separated solids.
The scope of supply includes a vacuum belt filter, an integrated scraper conveyor and a steel structure. The flow rate is 2,500 litres per minute, with a total tank volume of approximately 185 cubic metres. The largest individual filter has a filtration area of approximately 25 square metres.
Customer benefits
Reduced load on downstream filtration
The preseparator can remove coarser solids before they reach the vacuum belt filter, reducing the load on the downstream filtration stage.
Integrated solids discharge
The integrated scraper conveyor supports the removal of separated residues. Filtration and mechanical solids discharge are combined within a single system.
