Saves the trouble of changing the filter cloth and contributes to the safety of workers! Electronic beam screen

K Corporation, which is engaged in the development, manufacture, sale, and contract manufacturing of functional chemicals consulted us, requesting:
“In order to change the filter cloth, we want to avoid human intervention. In addition, it is necessary to perform cleaning inside the machine every time the filter cloth is changed, and we want to reduce the labor involved.”  We proposed and delivered a centrifuge with an “electronic beam screen” specification.

As a result of using our centrifuge, it is no longer necessary to change the filter cloth periodically consequently cutting labor costs and cutting the cost of cleaning fluid, etc. when cleaning the inside of the machine.
And because the production line doesn’t have to stop, the manufacturing process has been shortened and it is possible to contribute to the organization of the production schedule.

Key Point – Protecting Operator Health and Safety

Electronic Beam Screen Specification

For the standard filtration material for centrifuges, the majority of users today still use filtration cloths.
However, some users use metal filtration materials.
The biggest advantage of the metal filter is that it eliminates the need to change the filter cloth.
The interior of a centrifuge often contains solvent or nitrogen atmospheres, and the workers who change the filter cloth are in constant danger.
The safety of on-site work can be dramatically improved by simply removing such hazardous work.
In addition, the clearance of the scraper blade can be narrowed from 12.5 mm to 5 mm, which is compatible with the scraper device’s nitrogen detachment, making it possible to increase the quantity collected in one batch.

A typical example among our products is the electronic beam screen.
The pore size is fixed at about 100 microns. It fits perfectly onto the basket, so the user does not have to worry about it falling off like a filter cloth or leaking.
For any product to which it is adaptable, it will greatly contribute to improving production capacity and safety.

・The electronic beam screen is a screen with tapered holes (approximately 100-micrometer filtering surface) opened on a thin 0.5 mm plate, and the holes are extended toward the discharge side to prevent clogging.

・The basket has a surface finish after turning, which increases roundness and minimizes runout, so that the residual cake layer after cake scraping can be reduced by up to 5 mm.
(10 mm or more for a filter cloth)
Filtration inhibition due to residual cake is less likely, and the following < strong > < span style = “color: # ff0000; “>filtration is more efficient.

・By thinning the residual cake layer, the quantity collected in one batch is increased.

・Cleaning can be performed without removing the electronic beam screen, so replacing the screen is not necessary over a long period. This means that < strong > < span style = “color: # ff0000; “>the time for the task is shortened and it contributes to improved worker hygiene and safety.
The electronic beam screen can be removed and cleaned as needed.

・Compared to when using a cloth filter, there is no need to worry about contaminating the product with fluff, etc. A safe and high-quality separation can be achieved.

・The electronic beam screen is split-mounted inside the basket and the maintenance costs during replacement can be minimized.

・Because the electronic beam screen is completely sealed with the basket, there is no need to worry about the crystal leakage that can occur if a mistake is made installing a filter cloth, for example.
