What's the Best Filter Cloth for My Process?

Micronics supplies filter cloths to you based on detailed process criteria that you and your team provide to us. Often, our recommendations will be based on filtration testing. Should your process change, we do recommend that your filter cloth type is evaluated specifically for your new process & operating conditions. Time and time again, customers will find that a process change necessitates a change in cloth to ensure that the filter press operation is fully optimized.

You can find more information on our web, so please take a look.

For instance, did you know that a change in polymer or other chemical or physical treatments may alter the performance of your filter press?

Filter cloths come in many different materials including polypropylene, polyester, cotton, and various synthetic materials. The cloths are made from monofilament fibers, multifilament fibers, or spun fibers. Learn more about filter cloth terminology in our recent blog post.

Did you know that the smooth surface characteristic of monofilament fibers can help to improve cake release properties? The uniform circumference of monofilaments also enables fabrics to be produced with consistent pore sizes.

Multifilament and spun fibers are produced are produced by twisting several smaller diameter monofilament fibers together into a single strand. They are used to produce filter cloth fabrics that require a very tight weave and fabrics where high flow rates are not critical.

Pore size is an important consideration when selecting the proper filter cloth for a particular application. Pore size is determined by the number of fibers, fiber size, and the type of weave. These influence flow rates, particle retention, and the tensile strength of the fabric.

Filter cloth is the key foundational ingredient for any filter press operation. Filter cloth is the initial barrier that separates the solids from the liquid. The filter press cloth must remain porous in order to provide high filtration rates!

Met-Chem sewing department is a custom cut and sew shop. We have a large sewing factory on our premises to make any type of filter bag, Filter Press Cloths or Filter Media, to your specifications. Applications include liquid, air or gas. Our deliveries are always within a few days since we stock many of the textiles required for these applications.

With having an in-house sewing department, this allows us to ship smaller orders in 1 day. We keep part of our plant available to handle these orders from start to finish.  This includes laying out the fabric, cutting the bags from patterns, sewing and shipping the finished product.  By having trained people in this area to &#;do the whole job&#;, we can avoid the production line requirement that large orders face. This enables us to make and ship all of our smaller to medium size bag orders the day they are received or very soon afterward.

Please contact sales to discuss your specific needs.
