Vincent Fiber Filters         Featuring fine filtration of low consistency, high gpm throughputs, the Fiber Filter is a unique machine. There is nothing quite like it available in the market. It operates continuously with a fabric filter that is vibrated clean by the process flow, requiring only occasional back-flush cycles.     Liquid flows with fiber contents ranging from 100 ppm to 4.0% are thickened to a range of 2% to 14% solids with the Fiber Filter. The filtrate liquid is remarkably free of suspended solids. The Fiber Filter can replace equipment ranging from pre-thickening screens to centrifuges. Fiber Filters can be used both to thicken flow ahead of a screw press and to remove fiber from press liquor.

Vincent Screw Presses        There are four Series of Vincent presses available: the TSP, VP, CP, and KP. Above you will see the KP Press      The newest Vincent Press is the TSP Series. These have two overlapping screws. This design offers positive feeding of even very slippery materials. The best dewatering performance over the widest operating range is available in this press. The capacity and performance of the press is sensitive to changes in screw rpm, so the use of a VFD is recommended.      The traditional Vincent Press is the VP. These are differentiated by having screens in the inlet hoppers; a flared section in the main screen just ahead of the discharge cone; a single air cylinder cone actuator; and (usually) a belt drive between the motor and gearbox.      The Series CP (Compact Press) features a hollow shaft gearbox and a simplified cone drive, both of which shorten the frame of the machine. There is no screen in the inlet hopper, and profile bars screens are almost always used. These presses are available only in stainless steel construction.      The Series KP presses are designed for a "soft" squeeze. They dewater high throughputs of easily dewatered materials. Instead of a discharge cone, they use a lever actuated stopper plate. Perforated screens are used in almost all cases. Only stainless steel construction is available.
