Semi-automatic Plate Shifter

Watch the Video to See the Plate Shifter in Action!

The Met-Chem Semi-automatic Plate Shifter is our most popular requested add-on feature. The plate shifter makes operating your filter press easier, safer, and more efficient.

With large filter press plates, it would take two employees to move each plate and empty the filter press. The semi-automatic plate shifter allows one person to shift the plates. Thus, Saving You Money on Labor, and increasing productivity. Watch the video to see the plate shifter in action.

Met-Chem can add-on, rebuild and retrofit your existing filter press with a Semi-automatic Plate Shifter.

Fully Automatic Plate Shifter

The Met-Chem Fully Automatic Plate Shifter allows you to empty the filter press with little to no operator presence. With large filter press plates, it would take two employees to move each plate and empty the filter press. The plate shifter reduces labor costs, improves efficiency, and it is safer than other shifters. As a result, the fully automatic plate shifter will Save You Money.  

For added safety, a light curtain can be added. If a person or an object breaks the plane of the curtain, the shifter will automatically stop.

The Fully Automatic Plate Shifter uses a PLC control panel to automatically empty the filter press. The load sensing carriage will grab and shift each plate, and it will allow the sludge to fall. This is a great time saver for companies that want their employees doing more productive work than emptying the filter press. Watch the video to see the fully automatic plate shifter in action.

Filter Press Operation - How to Operate a Filter Press

Filter Press Stages

1 - Filling Stage

Filter Press - Filling

Filling Stage: The Slurry enters and fills the chambers through a feed pump. 

2 - Filtration Stage

Filter Press - Filtration

Filtration Stage: Once the chambers are filled with the slurry, the pressure from the feed pump will force the liquid filtrate out from the chambers. The Filter Plates and Filter Cloths will capture the solid particles creating sludge.

3 - Air Blowdown Stage

Filter Press - Air Blow Down Stage

Air Blowdown Stage: The Air Blowdown Procedure allows the remaining free liquid in the filter press to be purged before the filter chambers are opened. Air is entered through a filtrate port, and the remaining liquid is forced out. This improves cake dryness.

4 - Cake Discharge Stage

Filter Press - Cake Discharge

Cake Discharge Stage: Each chamber is opened for cleaning. The sludge is removed and the filter cloths are cleaned if needed.
