The figure FIG 1 shows the present invention of the new structure of the filter assembly of the beeswax separation screw 1 that comprises cylindrical filter components 2,3,4 attached to each other one after the other. One of these cylindrical filter components composes of a cylindrical filter pipe 5, at the ends of which there are mounted flanges 6. The filter components 2, 3 and 4 are tightly attached one after the other with bolts so that the opposite flanges of the filter components 2, 3, 4 mounted one after the other settle against each other. The first filter component 4 of the structure 1 is open at its top under the feed hopper 7 and the following filter components 3 and 2 are closed, the sides of said filter components 2,3 and 4 having small holes on them, through which the increasing pressure forces the honey out. The other end of the filter component 4 Is mounted to the body of the beeswax separation screw with bolts. The structure 1 is beneficial also when composed of only two filter components 4 and 2, mounted one after the other, in case of which the filter component 4 comprises the whole length of the compression zone. The problem the invention is dealing with is in traditional machines needing to have different parts (auger) for different viscosity of honey and wax combinations. Also to improve cleaning and maintenance of the device. The present invention overcomes this by the bolt flanges that can be undone to allow removal of parts. Different beeswax and honey has different consistence and there is a problem of how to separate this easily. The device has a compression zone that gradually adds more pressure for different consistencies.
