Pleated filter bag cages are specifically engineered to support pleated (star-shaped or cylindrical) filter bags, offering a high-efficiency solution for modern dust collection systems. Unlike traditional round bag cages, pleated cages provide increased filtration surface area in the same—or even reduced—installation space, allowing for higher air volume throughput, lower differential pressure, and compact system design.
The pleated structure increases the surface area of the filter bag by 1.5x to 2.5x compared to traditional cylindrical bags, which translates into:
Pleated filter bag cages are ideal for high-performance industrial dust collection where space optimization and airflow efficiency are critical:
They are especially favored in retrofit applications where increasing capacity without modifying the entire dust collector is necessary.
| Feature | Advantage |
|---|---|
| Increased Filter Area | 1.5–2.5 times more area than standard cylindrical bags |
| Space-Efficient Design | Reduces collector size while maintaining performance |
| Lower Differential Pressure | Improves airflow, reduces fan load, and saves energy |
