Equipment for filtration membrane and media manufacturing
In filtration manufacturing, product performance is set by the production equipment. Membrane pore structure, media density, and thickness uniformity are all established during coating, casting, calendering, and converting. IMC provides the equipment portfolio for these critical process steps.
Membrane coating and casting
Slot die and knife-over-roll casting systems for polymer membrane solutions. Solvent-rated and explosion-proof designs for NMP, DMF, DMAc, and other membrane solvents. Quench bath integration for immersion precipitation processes. Multi-zone drying with controlled humidity for vapor-induced and evaporation-induced phase separation.
Media calendering
Precision calenders for filtration media densification and surface finishing. Controlled compression for target porosity and thickness uniformity. Heated roll options for thermal bonding applications.
Converting
Slitting, lamination, and material handling for finished filtration products with the dimensional accuracy and edge quality these products require.
