/ Repair

Partial repair and overhaul

Partial repair

When the equipment's main service life is intact and full reconstruction is not economically necessary.

  • bearing replacement
  • seat restoration
  • shaft repair
  • seal replacement
  • hydraulics restoration
  • piping repair
  • valve replacement
  • drive repair
  • guide restoration
  • plate shifting system repair
  • filter cloth replacement
  • electrical system restoration

Overhaul

An overhaul involves in-depth fault detection with restoration or replacement of worn main units.

  1. 01

    Disassembly and fault detection

    Determining the actual condition of parts and units.

  2. 02

    Restoration

    Machining, repair or manufacture of parts.

  3. 03

    Replacement

    Installation of new components where restoration is technically or economically unjustified.

  4. 04

    Assembly and adjustment

    Restoring geometry, adjusting mechanisms and drives.

  5. 05

    Testing

    Testing of equipment systems.

  6. 06

    Commissioning

    Installation supervision and commissioning, depending on the scope of work.

Filter press plate repair

Restoration of chamber and membrane filter plates where repair is technically possible. Repairability is determined after fault detection, taking into account the material, type of damage and plate condition.

We diagnose

  • mechanical damage
  • surface condition
  • tightness
  • seal condition
  • membrane condition
  • slurry feed channels
  • filtrate discharge channels
  • seating surfaces
  • deformation

Possible work

  • Restoring damaged areas
  • Channel repair
  • Restoring seating surfaces
  • Replacing individual elements
  • Membrane replacement
  • Seal replacement
  • Post-repair inspection

Repairability is determined after fault detection, taking into account the material, type of damage and plate condition.

/ Upgrade

Improving the efficiency of existing equipment

If the unit's mechanical base still has service life left, an upgrade may be more rational than full equipment replacement.

Filter pack

Changing the configuration of plates, filter elements and consumables within the equipment's capabilities.

Hydraulic system

Upgrading the pump station, valves, hydraulic cylinders and pressure control system.

Feed system

Upgrading pumps, piping, valves and the filling algorithm.

Cake discharge

Mechanisation or automation of discharge operations.

Washing system

Automatic washing of cloth and equipment elements.

Safety

Guards, interlocks, sensors and emergency circuits.

Automation

New PLC, HMI, sensors, frequency converters and integration with the plant DCS.

Important: the potential throughput increase is determined after analysing the existing filtration cycle, slurry characteristics and equipment condition; specific percentages are given only after a project calculation.

/ Automation

Filtration cycle automation

A control system upgrade automates the sequence of process operations and centralises equipment control.

Filtration cycle

  1. Filter press closing
  2. Clamping pressure control
  3. Filling
  4. Filtration
  5. Membrane squeeze
  6. Blowing
  7. Opening

/ What to choose

Repair, upgrade or replacement?

Repair

When the equipment's original performance needs to be restored.

Goal: return the equipment to working order

Upgrade

When existing equipment is working or repairable, but its throughput, automation or operating characteristics need to change.

Goal: improve the existing system

Replacement

When remaining service life, structural condition or restoration cost make further repair economically unjustified.

Goal: replace the equipment with a new solution
