LACKEBY PISTON PRESS PP
Combines the good dewatering capacity of a screw press with the capability of a hydraulic press to lift and transport the dewatered material.
This is made possible by the drive system’s flexibility.
Function
The piston in the press housing is driven forward by a worm gear or flat gear motor and a trapezoidal threaded shaft. On the piston there is a guiding pin, which activates the microswitches positioned at each end of the piston stroke. The forward microswitch steers the piston’s turning point to a press zone with openings for high dewatering or past the openings if a less dry material is required. Maximum dewatering can be achieved by extending the interval in the press zone. Extra microswitches at each end ensure that the piston does not go too far if any of the ordinary microswitches malfunctions.
To create the resistance required for dewatering, the piston press should be connected to a press pipe with a lifting height, or a short press pipe with an adjustable counter-pressure device. Press water and flushing water is collected in a fixed trough underneath the press housing.
