Mining

From horizontal vacuum filter belts to plate and frames for filter presses, Filterfab has the experience and know-how to custom manufacture the correct filter for your mining application.

Filterfab is one of the most experienced filtration suppliers to Merrill-Crowe processes in North America and beyond. Since 1906, Filterfab has been innovating filtration processes in the mining industry.

Horizontal Belt Vacuum Filter

Horizontal belt vacuum filters are commonly used in the many washing stages needed in the mining industry. Filterfab will custom manufacture horizontal vacuum filter belts to your exact specifications.

Filterfab offers customized fabric weave, edge tracking solutions to help your belts stay in alignment and “endless” belt solutions that reduce vacuum leaks. We will work with you to find the right horizontal belt vacuum filter for your project.

Our horizontal belt vacuum filters use counter current washing or cake washing. This system is efficient and results in minimum loss of washing agent, or reagent.

Filter Press

When using a filter press to separate contaminants from precious metals like gold, Filterfab will custom manufacture the correct plate and frames for you. Our filter presses can also be used in dewatering high-volume mine tailing, dewatering mineral concentrates and the Merrill-Crowe Process.

The Merrill-Crowe Process is the preferred method for refining gold material as it results in high quality gold.

Dust Collection

Additionally, our dust collection filters can help control dust thereby increasing the longevity of your mining equipment and the safety of your employees.
