Inside Filtration – The Official FAUDI Newsletter<br />
FAUDI for Continental, Eastern Europe<br />
Clean performance<br />
for a clean emulsion<br />
Eastern Europe is growing very rapidly as an automotive<br />
region. Continental AG opened a new production facility<br />
in Zvolen in the Slovak Republic in 2005 in order to keep<br />
pace with this development and to retain its international<br />
competitive edge. It is intending to expand the new factory<br />
in Zloven to become one of the largest facilities for the<br />
manufacturing and assembling of brake callipers. FAUDI<br />
equipment is increasingly being used in the location‘s<br />
16,000 square metre production area, e.g. a coolant cleaning<br />
and supply plant with sediment tank and backflush filters.<br />
This supplies 11 cutting machines with a total capacity of<br />
8,000 l/min. The required filtration grade is 60 μm. In order<br />
to achieve this, the feed emulsion is first pre-cleaned in a<br />
sediment tank and subsequently pumped through three selfcleaning<br />
backflush filters. These are equipped with split-pipe<br />
filter elements made from stainless steel and are backflushed<br />
by the pressure in the system using clean emulsion. The<br />
backflush liquid is then cleaned once more with a vacuum<br />
filter. This combination of various filter systems ensures safe<br />
supplies of clean emulsion to the machining equipment.<br />
Continental AG has great expectations of its location in Zvolen<br />
and puts its complete trust in products made by FAUDI.
