Engineered Load-Bearing Performance
Hump-shaped support plates provide critical structural reinforcement for packed beds while maintaining ≥85% open area for unrestricted vapor/liquid flow. Engineered arch designs prevent bed compaction and distribute mechanical loads up to 15,000 kg/m² – eliminating capacity constraints in refinery, petrochemical, and gas processing columns.
