The Plate and Frame Filter Press is the most widely used solid-liquid separation equipment in mining. It uses mechanical pressure to force slurry through filter cloth, retaining solids as "filter cake" and discharging clear filtrate.
With a moisture content as low as 15-20%, it is essential for dry stacking of tailings and concentrate dewatering in Gold, Copper, and Coal washing plants.
Intermittent operation cycle: Pressing - Filtering - Discharging.
The hydraulic cylinder pushes the moving head plate, compressing the pack of filter plates tightly to seal the chambers.
Slurry is pumped into the chambers. Liquid passes through the filter cloth and exits via drainage ports. Solids build up to form a cake.
Once the chamber is full, the feed pump stops. The plates are opened automatically or manually, and the dry cake falls out.

Which plate type is right for your slurry?
| Feature | Recessed Chamber Filter Press | Plate and Frame Filter Press |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | Single plate type (Recessed). | Two types (Flat plate + Hollow frame). |
| Pressure | High (Up to 1.5-2.0 MPa). | Medium (< 0.6 MPa). |
| Discharge | Easy (Auto shifting possible). | Harder (Cake may stick to frame). |
| Application | Mining, Tailings, Heavy Sludge. | Fine Chemical, Pharma, Clarification. |
High-pressure filtration (up to 1.5 MPa) produces a dry filter cake with low moisture content (15-20%), which is easy to transport and stack.
The filter cloth intercepts even the finest particles (down to a few microns), producing clear filtrate that can be directly recycled to the plant.
Features hydraulic compression, automatic pressure retention, and automatic plate shifting (optional), reducing labor intensity.

| Model | Plate Size (mm) | Filter Area (m²) | Chamber Vol (L) | Pressure (MPa) |

| XY-1500 | 1500 × 1500 | 400 - 800 | 6000 - 12000 | 0.6 - 1.2 |
| Item | Value / Range |
|---|---|
| Max Pressure | ≥ 3 MPa |
| Working Pressure | 0.3 - 1.5 MPa |
| Feed Concentration | ≤ 10% (Suspension) to 40% |
| Chamber Count | 20 - 120 (Customizable) |

A: You need to know your Daily Solid Volume (Tons) and Filter Cycle Time (usually 1-2 hours). We will calculate the total volume (Liters) required per cycle.
A: Yes. We offer fully automatic models with Auto-Plate Shifting, Auto-Cloth Washing, and PLC control. Manual models are cheaper but labor-intensive.
A: It depends on the material. For mineral tailings, moisture is typically 15% - 20%. For sludge, it might be 25% - 40%. Using a membrane squeeze press can lower moisture further.
