Wedge Wire

Wedge Wire Filters Types: Cylindrical Screen, Flat Panels, Curved Sieve Bends, and Basket Strainers

Wedge wire filtration products, with precision-welded wedge-shaped wires forming accurate slots, are used for efficient filtration and separation. Classified by shape, they include cylindrical screens, flat panels, curved sieve bends, and conical baskets. Cylindrical screens are common in water wells, boreholes, and oil filtration for their durability and clog resistance. Flat panels are used in vibrating and static sieves for solid-liquid separation in mining and wastewater. Curved sieve bends efficiently dewater and classify materials in coal and mineral processing. wedge wire basket strainers serve as centrifuge screens in the food, beverage, and chemical industries, enhancing production through effective filtration.
