Does anyone know the proper name for this type of filter? I only get 1 ghit for the literal "smoothing drying filter" and it is a translation for a French lab supply company. I don't really have any context, it is part of a list of a equipment used for a particular production.

Filter-Dryer
To expand a bit on SJLD's answer... these are commercial product made by COMBER:
Pressofiltro® Agitated Nutsche Filter - Dryer
Labo PF / TD Filter Dryer - Pan Dryer
Since the "smoothing action" happens inside this filter-dryer, you may not need to use "smoothing" in your translation IMO as it is implied in the use of this type of product:
LABO units permit the operations inerting, slurry charging, vacuum or pressure filtration, cake smoothing, displacement or reslurry washing, heating, vacuum drying with agitation, cooling and discharge of the dry product. The unit can be used as an agitated nutsche filter, filter dryer, pan dryer and also as a paddle dryer, mixer/blender and reactor.
