Cleaning system
Systemate Numafa has developed
a new filtration system, an optional
piece of equipment for industrial
cleaning. The filtration system
consists of a buffer tank in which
a rotating drum filter is placed.
The inner side of this drum filter
has a 40-micron-thick filter cloth.
There are two pumps: one sucks
the water out of the washing tank,
though the drum filter and on
into the buffer; the second pump
returns the filtered water to a
specified location, for instance
back into the washing section.
This system greatly improves the
quality of the water, and yet it does
not need to be refreshed as often
as conventional systems. It has
applications in many industries.

closed feet and a pattern of grid and
rims designed to fit the egg trays
- plastic egg trays, each for 30 eggs
- the new plastic
divider (120 x

to bear the
weight of the
trays and eggs.
