▪ Baskets can be replaced directly without
modifications to the press
▪ All baskets delivered in split design
▪ Reduced stock-keeping costs because of uniform
spare and wear parts.
▪ Standardized, precision manufacturing
▪ Excellent production and quality results
Comments
Small holes increase manufacturing cost, but have very little impact
