Melt Filter K-SWE-4K-75

Continuous operation Screen Changer with 4 screens

Continuous operation polymer melt filters K-SWE-4K and K-SWE-4K-75 are used for processes requiring a large filtration area and high throughput rates.

Equipped with 2 screen cavities per screen bearing piston, these screen changers offer a large filtration area in connection with a compact machine design.

The 4 screen cavities guarantee constant polymer filtration even for sensitive processes.

The K-SWE-4K-75 differs from the K-SWE-4K in that during a screen change 75% of the filtration area remains in production, giving constant pressure.

Applications of the Screen Changer K-SWE-4K-75

  • processes with high throughput rates
  • compounding, semi-finished production, recycling, manufacturing of fibres, polymerisation, film extrusion
  • processes which require a large filtration area and process stability
  • (e.g. manufacturing of fibre)

Materials

  • suitable for almost all polymers
  • special design for PMMA and PC available

Customised special solutions

  • various coatings of the flow channels
  • special breaker plates

Function

  • continuously operating melt filter
  • 100 % venting by venting grooves
  • 4 screen cavities
  • simple handling for the operator
  • standard ACS control system
