The process-constant and automated filtration system for individual, bespoke solutions in a variety of demanding applications.
The KSF screen changer is a continuous, process constant and automatic screen changer which differs from all its Gneuss siblings in that the rotary disc is equipped with circular cavities. These have removable breaker plates as standard.
The combination of the rotary disc with circular cavities enables a huge amount of design freedom when it comes to matching the screen changer to an extruder. The screen changer can be individually designed so that it is an extension of the extruder, the melt flow paths can be made extremely short and streamlined.
The main application for the KSF screen changer is in compounding applications, it is ideal for processes whereby the material is especially sensitive cross-linked, chemical foaming agent, for PVC and for applications in which extremely fast colour or grade changes are necessary. The screen changer can be equipped with a hydraulic breaker plate ejector for fast, safe and easy replacement of the breaker plates.
