IMPACT FILTER DEVELOPMENTS
Specific development of a dynamic varnish trapping system.
Surf-Métal develops innovative solutions to optimize the performance of your coating lines while significantly reducing operating costs.
Among these developments is our impact filter system, an innovation designed to capture varnish overspray before it passes through traditional filter media. This system treats air laden with varnish particles—particularly for so-called “high-gloss” UV applications—by significantly reducing the saturation of conventional filters.
The system is based on a cascading baffle system, strategically positioned in the extraction airflow :
- Airborne varnish droplets, sprayed against the baffles, are trapped within them and then collected in recovery tanks to facilitate their evacuation and reprocessing.
- The air exits with very few particles, reducing the upstream load on traditional filters.
This process acts as active pre-filtration, blocking up to 50% of varnishes before they reach the final filters.
- Up to 50% of varnishes trapped upstream: less deposits and clogging in the final filters.
- Varnish recovery in interchangeable, easy-to-clean trays
- Significant savings on consumables: reduced frequency of finishing filter replacement
- Less filter consumption
- Reduced operating costs
- Reduced reprocessing costs
- Reduced production downtime
- Optimized VOC capture performance, particularly for high-yield or high-speed lines
Réduction des couts de retraitement - Particularly suitable for high-gloss, low-viscosity, and highly-saturated UV varnishes
This system can be :
- Easily integrated upstream of existing filtration systems
- Sized according to the extracted airflow, the nature of the products applied, and the booth configuration
- Available as a stand-alone module positioned in your booths or integrated into a custom-designed technical tunnel
- Low purchase cost for a rapid return on investment
- Technical expertise : over 35 years of experience in cabin airflow and controlled atmosphere engineering.
- Custom development : each solution is designed in our design offices to perfectly adapt to your industrial environment.
- Comprehensive vision : systematic integration into new projects or as an improvement to existing ones.
With Surfi-Métal, you transform an invisible point of loss into a lever for performance and savings.
