Automatic Filterpress

Automatic Filter Press & Sludge Dewatering Systems

One Eight Filtration Dynamics is the exclusive Irish agent for leading European designers and manufacturers of premium automatic filter press systems and advanced dewatering technologies.

The AF Filter Machine Series is engineered to filter and discharge filter cake reliably without manual intervention. Operating seamlessly on a continuous 24-hour cycle, these systems guarantee maximum plant availability, optimal throughput, and minimal operational downtime.

The Evolution of Industrial Sludge Dewatering

Conventional recessed chamber filter presses have long been an industry standard. However, modern industrial wastewater requirements demand a far greater degree of automation, processing efficiency, and cost-effectiveness—rendering traditional manual filter presses obsolete.

Due to its unique, proprietary automation technology, the AF Series delivers a significantly higher throughput ($m^3/h$) compared to conventional chamber filter presses.

Key Benefits of the AF Filter Press Series:

  • Unattended 24/7 Operation: Fully automated cake discharge eliminates manual labour costs and boosts workplace safety.

  • Intelligent Process Control: Equipped with a smart control system that automatically adapts to changing slurry concentrations and variable filtration characteristics.

  • Optimised Component Synergy: Designed to streamline the interaction between mechanical assemblies, ensuring safe, continuous, and highly efficient operation.

  • Maximum Flexibility: Fully customisable to handle diverse industrial effluents, mining slurries, and chemical processing waste.

Smart Filter Press™ (SFP) | High-Capacity Industrial Filtration

The Smart Filter Press™ (SFP) is a revolutionary, self-cleaning industrial filter designed to deliver maximum dewatering efficiency within an incredibly compact footprint.

Engineered for modern manufacturing and processing environments, the SFP achieves up to 10 times higher filtration capacity compared to conventional recessed chamber filter presses of the exact same size.

Unrivalled Safety and Total Process Enclosure

The Smart Filter Press™ completely redefines operational safety in industrial wastewater treatment. The entire filtration process takes place within a heavily gasketed filter plate pack, sealed behind fully enclosed and interlocked doors.

This smart engineering design ensures:

  • Zero Slurry Sprays: Eliminates the risk of high-pressure leaks into the workspace.

  • No Human Contact: Operators are entirely protected from direct exposure to the filter cake, chemical filtrate, or hazardous fumes.

  • A Clean Working Environment: Keeps the surrounding plant floor free from contamination, spray, and odours.

Intelligent, Unmanned Operation

Equipped with a proprietary, integrated self-monitoring system, the Smart Filter Press™ is the safest and least labor-intensive fully automatic filter press available on the global market today.

With fully automated cake discharge and self-cleaning cycles, the system delivers continuous, trouble-free operation virtually independent of operator intervention.

Key Performance Benefits

  • Drastically Lower O&M Costs: Automated cycles reduce manual cleaning hours, lower fabric wear, and cut overall operating and maintenance expenditure.

  • 98%+ Unmanned Availability: Engineered for non-stop industrial performance, requiring nothing more than brief, periodic inspections.

  • Enhanced Safety Interlocks: Multi-layered security systems protect both your staff and your plant assets during high-pressure cycles.

  • Maximum Throughput, Minimal Footprint: Reclaims premium floor space in your facility while multiplying your daily filtration output.
