Operating principles AKUPRESS ! A<br />

The materials to be treated are fed to the screw via a filler chute and propelled by<br />

the screw towards the press outlet. Depending on the application, the screw speed<br />

can be unchangeable (constant) or changeable.<br />

The exit opening is kept closed by a conical ring which opens only when the<br />

internal pressure exceeds the pressing pressure (basically 2-5 bars). This pressing<br />

pressure is set by means of a pneumatic cylinder or pneumatic bellow. The<br />

internal pressure is built up by the screw action on the materials to be dewatered.<br />

filler chute<br />

screen basket<br />

The internal pressure drives the free liquids (and pasty stuff) of the treated<br />

materials through perforations of the basket enclosing the screw. Solids are<br />

retained and expelled by the screw through the press exit aperture. Depending on<br />

the application, it is possible to choose screens with different hole diameters or<br />

even screens with different sizes of slits.<br />
