Automated filter cleaning system for food production lines
Food production lines often face interruptions due to frequent filter changes, leading to downtime and increased labor costs. Traditional filters require regular manual cleaning or replacement, hindering productivity and putting added strain on personnel resources.
Cleans filters continuously while operating
The FreeFilter by Natec Network is designed to enhance the efficiency of food production lines by providing automated, continuous filter cleaning. Unlike traditional systems that require frequent stops for filter maintenance, the FreeFilter uses a built-in scraper to automatically remove foreign particles. This system can run for 48 to 120 hours between filter changes, which take only 3 to 5 minutes. It significantly reduces rework, boosts line productivity, and minimizes labor requirements. The FreeFilter is compatible with various filtering options and integrates seamlessly with the Natec Network Rework Concept, making it particularly suitable for applications in spreadable cheese, soups, sauces, and IWS lines.
