Thickening is an important process step in the production of paper. It not only ensures an increase in the stock consistency as required for downstream processing, but also minimizes storage volumes and water loop separation.

The Thickener EFK is a solid and flexible all-rounder. Due to its strong design, the Thickener EFK is insensitive to any process variations. Fluctuating inlet consistency and changes in furnish are handled easily.
Unlike conventional gravity drum thickeners, the Thickener EFK contains circular ring dewatering segments. These long-lasting components consist of a metal wire embedded in glass fiber reinforced plastic. They have been proven to be virtually maintenance free and are resistant to foreign objects.

The compact design of the Thickener EFK makes it possible to be installed in almost any location and is an economical solution for different areas of application.
