Filter presses are pressure filters in which a filter pack formed by filter plates and filter frames or chamber plates is arranged in a frame between a “fixed cover” and a “loose cover.” Filter presses are used in the food and beverage industry and in the chemical, pharmaceutical or environmental sector. There they are often used as laboratory filters, wine filters or juice filters.
