AFT Screen Cylinders and Plates
The First Cost of a screen cylinder should be a consideration, but not the most important one. It is the Second Cost and Third Cost that can really make you pay.
For a screen, the Second Cost is energy; the Third Cost is fiber. Both of these represent more money to you than the cost of the cylinder.
AFT has this in focus – to enable you to reduce the total cost of screening. Our experience began as the Union Screen Plate Co. over 100 years ago. No other supplier has as much screening applications experience in the pulp and paper industry.
The results of this experience are proven ways to help you reduce energy (by reducing the screen's thickening factor for example, improve capacity (for example, by increasing the cylinder's open area without increasing slot size), and increase efficiency (based on the contaminants targeted for removal).
The AFT portfolio of screen cylinders and plates includes:
