The invention relates to a device and an assembly for cross-flow filtration comprising filter cassettes. An apparatus having the EPD applies a driving voltage with a periodic pulse to first color particles for a voltage applying period of the first color particles if a current temperature is below a predetermined temperature. The setting mechanism includes first and second stop members, one being coupled to the base and the other being associated with the cutting blade. The rigid platen includes a face with at least one cavity, into which is added powder to be compressed. The component may be a split torque gearbox. The tile designs make effective use of the area of an entire manufacturing panel.
