Customer Case: Shanghai Junyi Fully Automatic Box-Type Filter Press Assists a Large Electroplating Industrial Park in Achieving Automation Upgrade of Sludge Dewatering and Reducing Operating Costs by 40%
Customer Background:
A large electroplating industrial park houses dozens of electroplating enterprises, generating a large amount of complex and highly contaminated electroplating wastewater every day. The original traditional filter press equipment in the park has been in operation for over ten years, suffering from cumbersome manual operations, low efficiency, high moisture content of the filter cake, and poor on-site environmental conditions, making it difficult to meet the increasingly strict environmental requirements and high processing load.
Key Pain Points:
High labor costs: Each piece of equipment requires a dedicated person to operate, including tasks such as pulling plates, unloading, and cleaning. For a two-shift system, 4 workers are needed. The labor cost is high and the working environment is harsh.
Low production efficiency: A complete filtration cycle takes as long as 4-5 hours, and the processing capacity is severely limited. This has become the bottleneck of the wastewater treatment line in the park.
The treatment effect is unstable: The moisture content of the filter cake has remained at 35%-40% for a long time, and it is viscous and difficult to unload, which increases the costs and risks of hazardous waste transportation and disposal.
Management challenges: High equipment failure rate, inability to track operation data, and difficult management.
Solution:
After detailed technical communication, we customized and installed two fully automatic box-type filter presses for them, along with a fully automatic plate-lifting discharge device.
Implementation Results:
Since the new equipment was put into operation, remarkable and immediate results have been achieved:
Significantly reduce labor costs: Achieved “one-click” fully automatic operation. Now, the entire dehydration workshop only requires one employee for inspection, directly saving the labor costs of 3 operators, and saving over 200,000 yuan in labor expenses annually.
Significantly enhance processing efficiency: The automated cycle has reduced the processing time for a single batch from an average of 4.5 hours to 2.5 hours, with an efficiency increase of over 40%. Now the daily processing volume of sludge in the park has significantly increased, completely resolving the production bottleneck.
Optimize processing efficiency and reduce disposal costs: The moisture content of the filter cake is steadily reduced to below 25%, and the filter cake is hard and has a high rate of automatic detachment. The reduction in hazardous waste is significant, with annual savings in hazardous waste disposal costs exceeding 150,000 yuan.
Customer Testimonials:
Mr. Wang, the director of the wastewater treatment station in the park, stated: “This equipment upgrade has completely changed our traditional perception of the filter press. It not only solved our manpower problems and efficiency bottlenecks, but more importantly, the filter cake is drier and the disposal cost has significantly decreased. In fact, it only took about a year to recover the investment cost. Now our operation management has become much easier, and we have fully achieved the expected goals of safety, environmental protection, and efficiency.”
