Gneuß Kunststofftechnik, the worldwide technology leader in the field of polymer melt filtration will present the pressure– and process–constant Melt Filtration Systems at the Index 2008. These systems ensure a consistently high product quality in the extrusion of nonwovens.
New generation of the Filtration System SFXmagnus: enhanced performance with lower investment costs
| The latest generation SFXmagnus is characterised by its well known gneussconstant performance: fully automatic, process and pressure – constant operation. Thanks to a new concept for the heating of this system, the polymer melt can be filtered even more gently. The completely encapsulated system means that there is no prevents chemical reactions with oxygen or airborne moisture. Specially developed retaining plates ensure perfect location and sealing of the filter elements even at filtration fineness of 10 µm. |
The performance characteristics of the SFXmagnus can be summarised as follows:
- Permanent polymer purity and product quality.
- Permanent pressure stability, even during screen changes.
- Active filtration area up to 1,8 m²
- Suitable for all types of polymer and the whole range of melt viscosities.
- Simple and reliable operator interface
- Completely encapsulated design – external influences can be completely excluded.
- Fast return on investment – attractive value for money.
The SFXmagnus is therefore, the ideal screen changer for applications whereby process constant and/or pressure constant operation is either required or useful, but for which a self – cleaning system is not absolutely necessary.
New generation RSFgenius: unique, unrivalled processing performances, improved energy balance
| This Filtration System has set the standard for self–cleaning process constant melt filtration systems since its introduction over 10 years ago. The efficiency of its self – cleaning system (up to 400 automatic re-uses of the filter elements) and the extremely low melt loss through back flushing remains unrivalled and thanks to detailed changes has even been improved. |
This new generation RSFgenius is characterised by a newly developed insulation of the compact screen changer which has resulted in a reduction of the energy necessary for heating the unit. The new control system enables even more possibilities for programming of the operating processes, which now include the filling and speed of the RSFgenius back flushing piston.
The larger units have been redesigned with a new cavity shape which provides – together with optimised melt channel geometry – a 20 % increase in the active filter area.
Last but not least, with the RSFgenius 250 and the RSFgenius 330, two new model sizes have been introduced, which enable Gneuss to provide a melt system which can be better tailored to the customer’s individual application than ever before.
The RSFgenius provides the ultimate performance available from any screenchanger on the market.
