Sifters & Connectors
Sifting screens made from stainless steel wire are fabricated to grade and separate solid particles in numerous food processing applications. Synthetech is able to shape a comprehensive range of products for various capacities, separations, and equipment sizes.
These durable and reliable screens ensure accurate separation and sizing of a single product stream into multiple particle sizes.
Our flexible connectors are expertly constructed from Nylon, PVC and Kevlar explosion-proof materials, to assist maximum material flow. Pre-sized stainless steel bands provide a quick fit and release, while the enclosed seal ensures no product leakage or loss and a clean, sanitary factory.

Drum Pan Disc Filter
Precision-woven Pan Filter Media have been developed for adequate, consistent drainage, cake formation and washing to ensure a clean, evenly distributed, dry filter cake for subsequent discharge in alumina hydrate, phosphoric acid and titanium dioxide applications amongst others.
Fabric and elastomeric disc covers featuring tight seals have been perfected over many years to optimise washing, lower filtrate solids and reduce moisture content. High drainage properties also help our customers achieve capacity gains in typically heavy duty applications.
Drum Filter Covers (roll, knife, string and belt) require a durable, true-tracking and stable media with rapid cake formation to optimise cake thickness, lower cake moistures, reduce maintenance and significantly reduce solids in filtrate.
All fabrics are developed in partnership with clients using state of the art technical textile and testing technologies which enable us to match our materials to your desired filtration characteristics.
