At first, fully automatic filter presses differ significantly from conventional filter presses. The basic architecture, the working principle, and process technology are identical. Fully automatic filter presses are specifically designed for applications in which continuous operation and fast cycle times are essential and therefore crucial. N.M Patel’s fully automatic filter presses provide a high degree of automation while providing uninterrupted operation at the same time. The option of the simultaneous filter plate opening system, for example, helps to realize a particularly fast cake release reducing the cycle time to a minimum. The result is a high-speed filter press that allows increased production per unit area of the filter. For this reason, these machines are used in applications with highly filterable products where high filtration speeds are required. 

N.M Patel also has several systems/plants for fully automated filter presses. This means that we have the right solution for all applications. All systems are self-monitoring and can be parametrized by the operator and optimized accordingly. These include, e.g. the vibration device with eccentric beams and a simultaneous filter plate opening system, the vibrating device for individual filter plates, and the spreader clamp/spreader cloth version. The Cloth Washing system, The operating time of a fully automatic filter press is 24/7. Although a daily check of the filter press is necessary. This only involves personnel costs of about 2 hours per day which is well below the value of a manually operated filter press.
