Premium vombaur filter sleeves in a unique filtration system

An efficiency booster for solid-liquid filtration  – 

Developing a successful new solution usually requires more than one brilliant mind – and often the expertise of more than one company. After all, innovative products typically incorporate specialised components manufactured by trusted suppliers. This is also true of a patented filtration system developed by a vombaur customer.

Robust filter sleeves for a highly efficient filtration system

The fully automated solid-liquid filtration system uses compressed air as its driving force. Thanks to the unique geometry of its filter candles, it achieves exceptionally efficient filter cake discharge. To ensure the outstanding performance and virtually maintenance-free operation of the system, the manufacturer requires robust, durable filter sleeves. These sleeves must reliably withstand the enormous forces generated within the system, particularly the sudden loads occurring during backflushing. vombaur filter sleeves meet these demanding textile requirements. The circular woven filter sleeves are manufactured without seams or welded joints, making them exceptionally robust. This makes the Wuppertal-based textile specialist, part of the Textation Group, the ideal partner for this innovative filtration system.

Seamless sleeves for 100% filter area utilisation

Whether for precoat filtration or cake filtration, whether in the food or fibre industry: the yarns and mesh specifications of the filter sleeves are individually defined with precision for every project. As a result, circular woven vombaur filter sleeves deliver precise, reliable and long-lasting filtration performance. Their seamless construction also ensures consistently uniform filtration characteristics across the entire sleeve. Material thickness and flow behaviour remain identical at every point, guaranteeing the specified filtration performance over the full filter surface. An additional efficiency advantage: while longitudinally welded or stitched filter sleeves can lose up to ten per cent of their effective filtration area, the high-tech filter sleeves from vombaur utilise 100% of the available filter surface. Their seamless design also simplifies installation, providing additional benefits during both system assembly and maintenance.

Partnership for maximum quality and process reliability

Combined with vombaur filter sleeves, the highly efficient filtration system delivers stable throughput throughout every stage of the filtration process – even at extremely fine filtration ratings of up to 1 μm and with solids contents of up to 10%. “The intelligent filter candle design combined with our circular woven filter sleeves is a genuine efficiency booster for solid-liquid filtration. Our success is also based on the fact that we see ourselves as development partners. We tailor our products precisely to the specific requirements of each individual production system while consistently focusing on quality, process efficiency and durability,” says Maren Zurek, Sales Manager at vombaur. “We are simply the perfect fit. Together, we enable manufacturers in the food industry, the fibre industry and many other sectors to operate their filtration systems virtually maintenance-free over many years. At this level, that is truly something new.”
