Wedge wire screens

With latest technology used in the production process there is a continuous demand for effective filtration with minimum slot opening which conventional woven wire mesh screens failed to provide. Wedge wire screens are welded wire screens with very minimum slot opening which behaves like a pipe and withstand huge suction or discharge pressure where by effective filtration takes place due to very sturdy structure of the same. Manufacturing Process Wedge wire screens are made out of triangular wires welded to flat wires to form a panel or ring . Continuous length triangular wires are welded to flat wire panels with special precision die tools in order to achieve the desired opening. The flat wire panels are holded in a die tool where by the triangular wires are moved in a traverse like a typical lathe machine application where by the welding takes place and the movement of the traverse determines the slot opening of the mesh. Several die tolls with diameter range from 15MM to 700MM are developed and maintained in order to make screens with different aperture openings. The screens with smaller slot openings are made initially in cylindrical form and then cut and opened and flattened in order to achieve the flat opening screens. Usage & advantage High pressure filtration applications and in typical filtration applications where strong screens are required wedge wire screens are used. The usage of the screens provides the end user with effective filtrations with slot opening control maintained at the range of 0.1MM you achieve a screen which is very firm due to the support structures. Wedge wire screens are used as well screens in the rigging application and quality wire can design and supply screens typically strong enough to be used in this rigging applications. Typical Sand screens ; rigging screens; sea water intake screens; high pressure intake screens ;catalyst bed for dumping the catalyst are manufactured and supplied by Quality Wire Products Co W.L.L.. Besides for any application where a strong filtration system is required wedge wire screens can be used and the same offers effective solutions for filtration.
