Filter Cloths for Chamber Filter Presses and Industrial Pressure Filtration
Choosing the right filter medium is critical for efficient solid-liquid separation in industrial processes. At Winkler Filtration, we offer highly specialised filter cloths designed specifically for use in chamber filter presses and precoat filtration systems. Our fabrics stand out for their mechanical stability, excellent cake release and chemical resistance.
Buying the Right Filter Cloth: Monofilament and Multifilament Fabrics
Every filtration process places different demands on flow rate and particle retention. That's why our range includes filter cloths made from both monofilament and multifilament yarns, to offer the optimal solution for every suspension.
- Multifilament fabrics: These filter cloths for chamber filter presses (such as our 3L, 6L, 7L, 15L models) deliver excellent particle retention and are ideal for processes requiring high turbidity reduction.
- Monofilament fabrics: For applications that need especially easy cake release and a low tendency to clog, our monofilament filter cloths (e.g. for precoat filtration) are the first choice.
Whether you need a filter cloth with low air permeability for the finest particles or a more permeable fabric for fast filtration cycles, we cover the full technical spectrum.
Applications: Filter Cloth for Sludge and Wastewater Filtration
Our filter cloths are made from premium polypropylene. This material is chemically resistant to many acids and alkalis, making it the standard in the chemical industry, mining and municipal wastewater filtration.
Winkler's filter cloths for chamber filter presses deliver maximum dewatering of the filter cake. The optimised surface structure not only speeds up solid-liquid separation but also significantly extends the cloths' service life. This makes our products a cost-effective solution for industrial dewatering.

Custom Contours & Cuts to Drawing
When standard formats don't fit or special plate/installation dimensions are needed, precise cutting can be critical. With our laser cutting for technical textiles, we produce cuts from synthetic and technical fabrics to DXF specifications: clean, dimensionally accurate and reproducible.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Filter Cloths for Chamber Filter Presses
Do you have technical questions about optimal solid-liquid separation or choosing the right fabric for your pressure filtration? In this FAQ section, Winkler Filtertechnik brings together years of expertise as a specialised filter cloth manufacturer based in Werther (North Rhine-Westphalia), to give you fast, well-founded answers about filter cloths for chamber filter presses. Discover valuable tips straight from the experts in East Westphalia-Lippe (OWL), so your industrial filtration processes run efficiently and cost-effectively for the long term.
Choosing the right cloth depends heavily on the type of suspension and the filtration result you want. For very fine particles and strong turbidity reduction, we recommend multifilament fabrics (such as our 3L, 6L, 7L or 15L types). If fast solid-liquid separation and easy cake release are the priority – for example in precoat filtration – a monofilament fabric (such as our 67L type) is often the better choice.
We're happy to advise you individually on your plant.
Monofilament yarns consist of a single, smooth thread. This creates a very smooth fabric surface, so the filter cake releases extremely easily after pressure filtration and the cloth clogs less. Multifilament yarns are made up of many fine individual fibres. This structure enables tighter particle retention and higher mechanical strength, making them ideal for demanding filter presses in industry.
Yes, our standard qualities (e.g. PP) are made from premium polypropylene. This material stands out for its excellent chemical resistance to most acids and alkalis, making it perfectly suited as a filter cloth for the chemical industry, electroplating or wastewater filtration, where aggressive media need to be filtered.
Regular cleaning is essential. Depending on the level of contamination, the filter cloth can be regenerated through high-pressure cleaning or a chemical acid wash. This ensures permeability is maintained and filtration pressure in the chamber filter press doesn't rise unnecessarily. A premium cloth from Winkler is built for durability, to minimise maintenance intervals.
As a specialised filter cloth manufacturer and partner, we know that not every press has standard dimensions. Whether overhang, feed-through mounting or special edge reinforcement, we offer solutions cut exactly to your plate formats. If you're looking to buy a special filter cloth that isn't listed in the standard shop, get in touch with us directly.
