Increase yields with this heel-break system
This company is presenting its Heel Break System for the Pressofiltro filter dryer (photo). The device breaks up the heel remaining after the product discharge, thus achieving a heel-free product discharge and the highest possible yield of the valuable product. By pressurizing the multilayer filter plate with bursts of nitrogen, the heel breaks up and is discharged by the agitator. This is particularly effective in combination with the Whirl Snake Turbine, which uses nitrogen to blow any product remaining on the filter plate toward the discharge port. The mixing shaft and the rotating nozzle head, rotating at the same time, ensure that all areas in the vessel are covered and the remaining product is completely removed. As an alternative to manual emptying via glovebox, the Heel Break System enables a contained and automated process cycle. Hall 4, Stand 319 — Comber Process Technology S.r.l., Agrate Brianza, Italy
