PROCESS OPTIMIZATION: FILTRATION SYSTEMS
Nearly every filtration system in metal strip producing lines show weak points that compromise effective filtration. As a result oil and iron fines are redeposited on the surface in closed-loop lines, alkali solutions, shorten process life due to premature media saturation. We can be really good at getting the oil, iron fines, dirt, smut, etc. […]
