Several Common Reasons

Hydraulic system problem: The hydraulic system is the core part of the filter press and is used to provide pressure. If there is a fault in the hydraulic system, such as damage to the oil pump, blockage of the oil line, or oil leakage in the oil cylinder, the filter press will not be able to pressurize normally.

Filter plate problem: The filter plate is the main component of the filter press, used to carry materials and filter. If the filter plate has cracks, deformation, or poor sealing, the filter press will not be able to press normally.

Electrical control system issue: The electrical control system manages all functions of the filter press, including hydraulic operations and the movement of the filter plates. If the electrical control system fails, such as sensor failure, control line failure, or motor damage, the filter press will not be able to press normally.

Wear of mechanical parts: During the use of the filter press, the mechanical parts will gradually wear out, such as bearings, gears, chains, etc. If these parts are severely worn, it will cause uneven transmission and reduced movement accuracy, which will affect the normal pressure of the filter press.

Improper operation: When using a filter press, whether the operation method is correct will also affect the normal pressing. For example, if the filter plates are not aligned or placed unevenly, or if the prescribed operating steps are not followed during the pressing process, the filter press may not be able to press normally.

Solution to the Problem of the Filter Press Not Pressing

Check the hydraulic system: First, check whether the oil pump, oil circuit, and oil cylinder of the hydraulic system are normal. If the oil pump is damaged, the oil circuit is blocked, or the oil cylinder is leaking, it should be repaired or replaced in time. Maintain proper oil levels and keep the hydraulic oil clean to ensure the hydraulic system operates smoothly.

Check the filter plate: Check whether the filter plate has cracks, deformation, or poor sealing. If any issues are detected with the filter plate, it should be promptly repaired or replaced to maintain its integrity and sealing performance. Regular cleaning and maintenance of the filter plate are essential to prolong its service life.

Inspect the electrical control system: including key components such as sensors, control circuits, and motors. If problems such as sensor failure, control circuit failure, or motor damage are found, they should be repaired or replaced in time. Regular maintenance and servicing of the electrical control system are essential to ensure its proper functioning.

Inspect mechanical components: regularly check for signs of wear, including parts like bearings, gears, and chains. If parts are found to be severely worn, they should be replaced or repaired in time to ensure the normal operation of the transmission system. Mechanical parts should be lubricated and maintained regularly to extend their service life.

Standardized operating procedures: The filter press should be operated according to established guidelines. Avoid improper or forceful operation to prevent equipment damage or potential safety hazards. The skills and safety awareness of operators should be improved, and training and assessment should be strengthened.

Enhance routine maintenance and care: Conduct regular daily upkeep of the filter press, including cleaning, lubrication, and inspections. This helps identify potential issues early and ensures reliable operation and extended equipment lifespan. A complete maintenance and care system should be established and implemented conscientiously.
