Pleated Filter Cartridges Cartridge type that satisfies the demands of a wide variety of customers from food and beverage industry to electronics industry. Microfiltration is a type of filtration process in which membrane filter, with pore sizes that vary from 0.1μm to 10μm, is used to trap fine particles or microorganisms.　 Fujifilm and "filtration technology" may sound somewhat unrelated, but Fujifilm’s research into filtration technology can be traced back to nearly half a century ago. Based on the technology of photographic films, Fujifilm came up with the idea of making microscopic holes in film to optimize the film material. Completed in this way, through trial and error, was "AstroPore", a micro filter having numerous micro pores. With improvements from time to time since its launch in 1969, AstroPore has been in production for more than 40 years. Its superior quality has received high recognition from many customers, firmly supporting Fujifilm’s growth until today. Now, let's see the features of micro filters. Generally, micro filters can be classified into two types depending on their trapping mechanism and structure. The "nominal type" has a structure in which fibers are randomly tangled with each other. On the other hand, the "absolute type" typically has numerous micro-sized pores inside a synthetic resin film or membrane, which enables particles larger than a defined size to be trapped. Today, our micro filters are used at manufacturing sites of a wide variety of industries. Listed below are just few examples of how they are used…
