Tray Filters

 

 

Tray filters are top fed and are distinguished by their lack of a rubber belt. They are primarily used for thin cakes, although some machines are available for thick cakes. Two different design concepts are used for tray filters, both consisting of a cycle where the vacuum is turned on and off.
• In the first type, a cloth moves continuously over reciprocating trays. The vacuum is on during the forward stroke and then switches off during the reverse stroke.
• In the second design, the cloth moves over fixed trays. The cloth stops with the vacuum on during the filtration phase and then switches off to allow the cloth to move forwards.
