Mining plates

Customized filter press plates for the toughest mining applications
JVK® develops and manufactures mining plates for maximum service life, fast dewatering, and reproducible filtrate results. Whether custom-made for new projects or compatible with Metso/SALA and Ishigaki – we deliver the precisely fitting solution for your filter press.

JVK® Mining Plates

Custom-Made: the Best Solution is Yours

  • Geometry & Connection Diagrams: Center/Corner inlet, additional washing and rinsing channels, optimized drainage surfaces.
  • Cake Thickness & Surfaces: Defined chamber heights, structured sealing and dewatering zones for fast cake formation.
  • Materials: PP or PVDF; membranes, e.g., TPE/EPDM/NBR – matched to temperature, pH, chemicals, and abrasion.
  • Process options: Cake washing, repressing / squeezing (MRP/MCP), thermal drying / tempering.
  • Target Values: Short cycle time, low residual moisture, high plant availability.

Metso/SALA Type – Plug-and-Play

JVK® supplies SALA-compatible plates (e.g., 800/1000/1200/1500 mm) with matching geometry, suspension, and drilling patterns. Ideal for retrofit or conversion to membrane technology without machine modification.

Ishigaki Type – Custom-fit Compatible

For Ishigaki presses, you receive chamber, membrane, and combination plates with a project-specific fit. Options for washing, temperature control, and special media included.

Advantages in Mining

  • Long Service Life: Low-wear plastics, reinforced edges, large flow cross-sections.
  • Performance & Quality: Fast dewatering, uniform cake, stable filtrate quality.
  • Process Reliability: Low-leakage sealing concepts, robust membranes, reliable pressure ratings.
  • Service: Design for cake thickness, media resistance, material, and seal selection.

Applications

Ore and concentrate filtration, tailings dewatering, process water treatment, recycling, and other solid/liquid separation tasks in mining.

Start Project Now

Please provide press type/size, inlet type, cake thickness, medium/temperature/pH, and target values (residual moisture, cycle time). We will create a custom specification with material recommendation and service life estimation.

FAQ

Customized geometries, optimized channel design, and material resistance for abrasive media shorten cycles and extend service life.

Yes. JVK® manufactures compatible chamber, membrane, and combination plates in common sizes – plug-and-play in existing presses.

PP/PVDF for plate bodies; membranes, e.g., TPE, EPDM, or NBR – depending on temperature, pH, and chemicals.

Laboratory Filter Press Configurator

JVK SnapFit®

Screwless and non-destructive "SNAP" connection

Inspired by applications outside the industry, this fastening technique finds its place in filtration. This simple mounting option significantly reduces working times. The screwless assembly also prevents screws from falling into the filter cake trough. For example, an overhang cloth can be changed quickly and easily at the turbidity bore in the filter press using a ring remover and rubber hammer.

Through the connection with the JVK SnapFit®, the attachments are pre-assembled with sufficient holding force, ensuring they remain firmly connected during the transport of the filter elements. The attachments are fully fixed and sealed to the filter plate by the closing force of the filter press.

The ring remover (JVK utility model) is also a JVK development, specifically designed to release rings fastened with the JVK SnapFit® and safely remove them from the filter press area.
