Plate and frame filter press
Passavant Geiger

The membrane filter press is a further development of the chamber filter press. In this instance, the press is not filled with the aid of the filling pump up to the final pressure, but only up to about 6-8 bar. Following this, the cake is mechanically pressed further by impact with the membranes integrated with the chamber plates.
