there’s a whole thread in here on FF FFE’s. Hit the search above and you will find it.
There wiped film is feon china so id imagine tou could easiky find who supplies them.
Thanks! Sorry stiller super new to all this extraction and recovery stuff I went through all those links already and read majority of it but still wondering if my plan will work, I’m thinking about using a jacketed centrifuge from china (thats all I can afford apparently ) and connect a touch science -120c chiller onto it for cyro extraction and then that’ll be pumped into jacketed spools with a filter paper packed with filter media. Would this get around winterizing? From here it would be going into the FF ffe. What do you guys think of this? I only have a budget of 75-80k for this whole lab setup. Thanks guys
Word of advice: redundancy
you need a heater and either tap water, a radiator, or a chiller for your ffe. i think your budget is a little low.
Pull a vacuum on the centrifuge jacket. Connecting a chiller will simply make a snowball in your lab.
This can be done on a budget, but if you’re not the type that looks at every** piece of equipment and sees how it could be used to extract cannabis, it won’t be easy.
**eg: would it occur to you to try this?

Are you aware that the centrifuges you refer to were originally designed for filtration?
Way faster than any spool/paper/magic dirt combo you’re gonna come up with…

please don’t make unsubstantiated claims.
All of Falling Formulations units are made in USA
Work amazing and just as advertised, plus are a fraction of any other company.
It’s a no brainer honestly.
@bsanchez244 My handle will get you 5% off if you end up going that route.
And last I heard they offer a centrifuge option as well, just not on the site yet, I would definitely call the guys over there and see how they can get you up and running at or under budget
They saved me over 200k so far.

Why did they take down their 15k add from eBay?

They were selling pilot units thru eBay
They didn’t even have a website when I placed my order, looks like they grew fast and switched to all USA sourced steel and welders
Hence the price raise

So, you have the Chinese sourced steel and welding unit that was 15k? I don’t see why anyone would pay more when they can get what you purchased for the same price you paid from China.

Man you guys are too much
The accurate information is in the original thread
So sad you all choose to hate each other instead of work together
It’s clear that that China ripoff company has zero knowledge and stole their design.
Happens to Gucci and Prada, and it happened to FF
They’re not the same?
Looks the same to me
Gtfo with your constant salesman BS
Even the rack is the same
Stop being a

Beef like you guys is immature
Especially all you other guys selling your crazy overpriced 100-200 units that recover 40gpg lol
End of the day their units are all USA sources and welded steel.
And they are MUCH cheaper than any USA company.
And have actual cannabis knowledge 
I feel bad for anybody that falls for the China ripoff of ANY company. I repeat, BUY CHINA-BUY HEADACHE 
lol

As you stated, you purchased one of the Chinese steel and welded models before they switched to all US. Explain what “headaches” this is giving you on your unit please?
