Wedge Wire Screen - Precision Screening & Durable Pioneer

Product Introduction

1. Structural Composition

• V - Wire Design: Constructed by welding stainless - steel V - shaped wires (wedge wires) and support bars. The sharp top of the V - shaped wire effectively intercepts impurities, while the wider bottom enhances the strength and stability of the screen surface.

• Welding Process: Advanced resistance welding or argon arc welding technology is used to firmly weld the V - shaped wires and support bars. The welding points are uniform, ensuring a flat screen surface that is not easily deformed.

• Multiple Specifications: Customizable mesh gap sizes (0.02 - 5mm), screen surface sizes (minimum 10cm×10cm, maximum 10m×3m), and shapes (round, square, arc, etc.) are available to meet different usage requirements.

2. Working Principle：When fluids or granular materials pass through the wedge wire screen, impurities larger than the mesh gap size are intercepted by the sharp top of the V - shaped wire, while materials that meet the size requirements pass through the mesh gap smoothly, achieving solid - liquid separation or particle classification. Due to the special structure of the V - shaped wire, impurities are not easily stuck in the mesh gap, reducing the risk of blockage and ensuring the continuous and stable progress of the filtration or screening process.

3. Core Advantages：Compared with traditional screens, the wedge wire screen has higher strength and wear resistance, resulting in a longer service life. Its unique V - wire design enables higher filtration or screening accuracy and is not prone to blockage. It can be customized according to different working conditions and requirements, making it highly adaptable.

Working Process

1. Installation and Debugging

• Install the wedge wire screen correctly on the filtration or screening equipment according to the equipment requirements, ensuring a firm installation and a flat, wrinkle - free screen surface.

• Check the connection parts between the wedge wire screen and the equipment to ensure good sealing and prevent material leakage.

2. Material Processing

• Start the equipment and introduce the fluid or granular material to be processed into the area where the wedge wire screen is located.

• The material passes through the wedge wire screen under the action of gravity, pressure, or mechanical power. Impurities larger than the mesh gap are intercepted on the screen surface, and materials that meet the size requirements pass through the mesh gap and enter the subsequent process.

3. Cleaning and Maintenance

• Regularly check the accumulation of impurities on the surface of the wedge wire screen. When there are too many impurities affecting the filtration or screening efficiency, clean it.

• For surface impurities, methods such as high - pressure water flushing and brush cleaning can be used. If the impurities are stubborn, chemical cleaning agents can be used in combination.

• Check whether the wedge wire screen is damaged or deformed. If there are problems such as welding point detachment or V - wire breakage, repair or replace it in a timely manner.

4. Continuous Operation：After the cleaning and maintenance are completed, confirm that the wedge wire screen is in good condition, restart the equipment, and continue the material processing work.

FAQ

1. How to choose the mesh gap size of the wedge wire screen?：The selection of the mesh gap size of the wedge wire screen depends on factors such as the particle size of the processed material, the requirements of subsequent processes for the particle size of the material, and the processing efficiency. For example, in food screening, if a fine - particle product is required, a mesh gap of 0.1 - 0.5mm can be selected. In mining classification, according to the particle size distribution of the ore, an appropriate mesh gap is selected to achieve effective classification. At the same time, the impact of the mesh gap on the processing flow rate should be considered to avoid too low processing efficiency due to too small a mesh gap.

2. What should I do if there is local damage to the wedge wire screen during use?：If there is local damage to the wedge wire screen, first judge the degree of damage. If the damaged area is small, it can be repaired by welding. Use welding wires of the same material as the original screen for repair welding and polish it smoothly. If the damage is severe, such as large - area wire breakage and screen surface deformation, the entire wedge wire screen needs to be replaced. When replacing, ensure that the specifications of the new screen match the original equipment and install it firmly to ensure normal use in the future.

Conclusion

The wedge wire screen, with its precise screening performance, excellent durability, and wide applicability, has become an important tool for many industries to achieve efficient filtration and precise classification. Whether in the food and chemical fields with strict product quality requirements or in the mining and environmental protection industries with high requirements for resource processing efficiency, it can provide reliable and stable solutions. Choosing our wedge wire screen means choosing an efficient, durable, and precise material processing solution to boost production and operation.
