Filter Design

FORTY YEARS OF FILTER DESIGN

BEC have been at the forefront of filter encapsulation for over four decades. In a company built and owned by engineers, we design with both toolmaking and injection moulding in mind. Blending the two allows us to see the bigger picture and create the best filtration solutions for our customers.

After manufacturing one of the first tumble dryer filters for Phillips in 1982, BEC were approached to design and encapsulate filters for Hotpoint, Creda and Kenwood to name a few. Fast forward to today and BEC filters are used across marine, bio-medical, automotive, transport, white goods, and hot beverage industries across the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

I have an injection moulded part but no tooling, can you make me new tooling?

Yes, customers can bring in or send their part to the BEC site; our team will then use several techniques to 3D scan the object- collecting incredibly accurate measurements of every surface at lightning-fast speed. Once this data has been collected it can be pulled across into CAD software and altered, 3D printed, or used to create a mould tool.

I’m not sure if my design is suitable for plastic injection moulding, can you advise me?

Of course, feel free to call or email us and one of our team members will be happy to discuss how your parts are best made. We’ll gladly tell you about the pros and cons of injection moulding for your particular project.

I have an idea or a sketch, but no CAD drawings, can you help me with them?

Yes, our team can produce CAD drawings for your design with some help from you. A sketch of a design with measurements and details/applications will be a good starting point.

I’m not sure what type of plastic will work best in my design; can you advise me?

We can certainly help. Your material selection will depend on what is required for your part- flexibility, impact resistance, toughness and more. We will be happy to offer our opinion on what will work well.

I’d like to keep my design private; would you be happy to sign an NDA?

Many of our customers (big and small) use NDA’s to ensure total privacy. We’ll be happy to enter into one with you.

I need a filter made for a specific space and use; can you design it?

Yes, get in touch and discuss the details of the filter and we'll be happy to help you with your design. We manufacture filters for tiny fuel particles and large debris alike, working with woven, non-woven and stainless steel meshes.
