Vacuum belt filter for sludge and suspension filtration
Optimize your production line with efficient filtration and dewatering of complex slurries and suspensions. Achieve precise separation and washing, ensuring consistent product quality and adaptable operation, regardless of changing capacities or materials.

Filters and Dewaters Slurries and Suspensions
SPALECK’s MTF, HTH, and HRB vacuum belt filters are engineered to optimize the filtration and dewatering of industrial slurries and suspensions. Employing a continuous filtration process, these filters efficiently separate solids from liquids using vacuum technology, ideal for applications ranging from pharmaceuticals to mining.
The equipment is adaptable to various production scales, featuring modular designs for easy capacity adjustments. Its robust construction minimizes wear, with the filter cloth as the primary consumable component, reducing maintenance costs. It offers seamless integration into existing processes via PLC control, facilitating remote operation and monitoring.
With options in corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel, these filters provide enhanced durability across chemical and mineral processing applications. The systems are designed for environmental efficiency, allowing recycled water to be redirected into the water treatment process.
Customization options are available, including cake washing units for enhanced separation, ensuring the equipment meets specific industry standards, such as those required by chemical and pharmaceutical sectors. Pilot systems are also offered for trials, ensuring optimal system configuration before full-scale deployment.
