From mechanical bar screens for headworks to advanced dewatering with filter presses, screw presses, and belt presses. Loway Equipment is your direct manufacturing partner for efficient, cost-effective sludge management.
Integrated Solid-Liquid Separation & Wastewater Pre-treatment Solutions for Global Industry
Unbiased Engineering, Premier Manufacturing
Loway Equipment bridges the gap between precision manufacturing and process engineering. Unlike suppliers limited to a single technology, we manufacture the complete spectrum of solid-liquid separation machinery in-house—from pre-treatment units like Mechanical Bar Screens and Rotary Drum Filters, to high-performance sludge dewatering systems including Filter Presses, Screw Presses, and Belt Presses.
This integrated capability gives you two distinct advantages:
- Unbiased Recommendations: Because we build every type of filtraction equipment, we don’t force a “one-size-fits-all” solution. We recommend the exact technology that suits your sludge characteristics.
- Direct Factory Control: By managing the entire production lifecycle in our own facility—from raw steel laser cutting to final PLC programming—we ensure every machine meets international standards while offering factory-direct value.
Loway filter press equipment is designed and manufactured to the highest standards of quality and precision.
Only the highest-grade materials and manufacturing processes are used to ensure reliability.
Loway offers customizable solid liquid equipment solutions to meet your unique operational needs.
Loway team is committed to offering comprehensive support long after your purchase.
Comprehensive Dewatering & Screening Technologies
Sludge Dewatering
Multi-Disk Screw Presses (Volute Dewatering)
Ideal for: Oily Sludge, Food Processing, DAF Sludge Engineered for continuous, unmanned operation, our Screw Press utilizes a self-cleaning moving ring mechanism that prevents clogging. It is the superior choice for oily and greasy sludge where traditional filter cloths would blind. With low energy consumption and minimal water usage, it offers a "plug-and-play" solution for 24/7 automated plants.
Chamber & Membrane Filter Presses
Ideal for: Mining Tailings, Chemical Processing, Stone Cutting When maximum cake dryness is the priority, the Loway Filter Press is unmatched. Our high-pressure designs (up to 30 bar) and membrane squeeze technology extract the maximum amount of liquid, significantly reducing transportation and landfill costs. We offer fully automated plate shifting and cloth washing systems to reduce labor intensity.
Belt Filter Presses
Ideal for: Large-Scale Municipal Sewage, Paper & Pulp Designed for high-volume handling capacity, our Belt Filter Press provides a reliable, continuous dewatering solution. Featuring heavy-duty rollers and high-quality filter belts, this system is perfect for treating large quantities of municipal sludge or wastewater with high organic content, ensuring consistent throughput and low polymer consumption.
Pre-treatment & Screening
Mechanical Bar Screens
Ideal for: WWTP Headworks, Pump Protection Effective treatment starts at the inlet. Our range of coarse and fine Mechanical Bar Screens (Rotary Drum, Rake type) effectively removes debris, rags, and large solids. This critical pre-treatment step protects downstream pumps and dewatering equipment from damage and blockage, ensuring the longevity of your entire treatment plant.
Rotary Drum Filters
Ideal for: Aquaculture (RAS), Food Processing, Water Intake Screening Bridging the gap between coarse screening and sludge dewatering, our Rotary Drum Filter removes fine suspended solids (TSS) from large water flows. Featuring high-precision wedge wire screens, it continuously separates organic matter and particles that pass through standard bar screens. This is essential for protecting sensitive biological systems in aquaculture and reducing load in industrial water recovery.
Accessories & System Integration
Ideal for: Plant Maintenance, System Upgrades, Spare Parts Inventory Ensure peak performance and minimize downtime with genuine Loway components. From custom-sewn filter cloths and replacement filter plates (PP/Cast Iron) to matched screw pumps and conveyors, we offer one-stop sourcing. Our accessories are engineered to integrate seamlessly with your main equipment, guaranteeing system synchronization and simplifying your supply chain.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: I am unsure which equipment suits my sludge (Screw Press vs. Filter Press). How do I decide?
The choice depends on your specific sludge characteristics and operational goals.
Choose a Multi-Disk Screw Press if you are handling oily sludge (DAF), food waste, or need 24/7 continuous, unmanned operation with low energy costs.
Choose a High-Pressure Filter Press if your priority is maximum cake dryness (lowest moisture) to reduce hauling costs, typically for mining tailings, chemical processing, or stone cutting wastewater.
Choose a Belt Filter Press for large-scale municipal sewage where high throughput volume is the main requirement.
Still unsure? Send us a 2L sludge sample, and our lab will perform a free filtration analysis to recommend the best technology.
Q2: Do you support OEM manufacturing? Can you match our specific component brands?
Yes, Loway is a premier OEM partner for many global engineering firms and distributors. We can manufacture equipment under your private label.
Crucially, we offer Component Flexibility. While our standard units use top-tier Chinese brands, we can integrate specific international brands (e.g., Siemens/Allen-Bradley for PLCs, SEW/Nord for drives, Schneider/ABB for electrics) to match your local site standards and spare parts inventory.
Q3: How do you ensure the equipment fits into our existing facility?
We don’t just sell standard models; we engineer solutions. Before manufacturing, our engineering team will provide detailed 3D CAD drawings and foundation layouts. We can customize the frame dimensions, piping orientation (left/right inlet), and hopper height to fit tight spaces or retrofit existing installations seamlessly.
Q4: What is your solution for international after-sales support and spare parts?
We understand the “distance anxiety” of importing machinery.
Standardized Parts: We design our machines using universal standards (bearings, seals, motors), so 90% of wear parts can be sourced locally.
Emergency Stock: For specialized parts (like filter plates or screw shafts), we maintain a ready-to-ship inventory for immediate air freight.
Remote Support: Our PLC systems can be equipped with a remote access module, allowing our engineers to troubleshoot software or logic issues instantly from our office in China.
Q5: Can you provide a complete turnkey system, not just the bare machine?
Absolutely. We specialize in Skid-Mounted Integrated Solutions. We can package the dewatering machine with the matching feed pump, polymer dosing unit, pipework, and central control panel—all pre-wired and mounted on a single steel base. This “Plug-and-Play” design reduces your on-site installation time and costs by up to 60%.
Q6: How is the equipment packaged to prevent damage during sea freight?
We take packaging as seriously as manufacturing. All sensitive components (motors, panels) are packed in export-grade plywood crates (fumigation-free). Large frames are wrapped in heavy-duty industrial film for moisture protection and securely lashed/bolted to the container floor to prevent movement. We guarantee the equipment arrives in factory-new condition.
