Woven mesh is made from wire formed into a grid arrangement. They are typically used to remove smaller particles as the wire used can be very fine. Each aspect of the mesh filter, including the layer configuration, wire diameter, weave pattern, alloy, and mesh count, are customizable, allowing woven wire mesh to deliver desirable results to a wide range of filtration systems.
Welded wire mesh is best defined as an array of metallic wires that are welded at each wire intersection instead of being woven together.Because of limitations associated with the welding process, the mesh openings of welded wire mesh filters cannot be fabricated as fine as woven wire mesh filters can.
A wedge wire screen is a filter screen that employs v-shaped wires that are welded onto a supportive base. This helps create a slotted filter that resists blinding, can be cleaned with ease, and provides a durable means of proper filtration.
Perforated plate filters are filters constructed from a piece of sheet metal that feature several holes of a specific size in a specific pattern that are punched out using one of several fabrication techniques. As it’s constructed from sheet metal, it can deliver maximum durability while maintaining the ability to filter out larger particles accurately.
