At Wiremesh-ProTec, we do our best to meet business requirements in the best possible way and to support every process with high-quality filter elements that can be used for a long time.
The possibilities for shaped filters seem almost endless
Whether used as semi-finished products for the production of filters or even on their own – the shaped filters from Wiremesh-ProTec can take on any conceivable geometry and thus adapt perfectly to any situation. This means that not only filter disks, but also cylinders, half-shells and cones can be selected from us. Which shape is best always depends on the respective application and the space available. The professionals at Wiremesh-ProTec will be happy to advise you in more detail in order to optimize separation results or generally help you make the right purchase.
Shaped filters – using high-quality filter elements from Wiremesh-ProTec
If shaped filters are required in large series, this is usually the case in the automotive industry. Here, the metal wire mesh often has to be thermally treated in order to complete the shape embossing without changing the pore size. This also ensures the stability of the selected dimension. Post-cleaning of the mesh may also be necessary so that the shaped filters can be used directly. Strict control of the shaped filters is also important here to ensure the highest possible quality.
Project-specific selection of the metal wire mesh
Wiremesh-ProTec specializes in a diverse selection of metal wire meshes that can be used to achieve different filtration and separation properties. The metal wire mesh is therefore specifically selected for haped filters before a prototype is produced. Only in this way can production be resumed as quickly as possible. Shaped filters made of metal wire mesh are tested several times by us for their quality and prove to be extremely precise during filtration.
Processing and material of the shaped filters
When it comes to metal wire mesh filters, Wiremesh-ProTec usually uses the materials 1.4301 and 1.4401. The stainless steels offer excellent properties when it comes to hygiene and are virtually germ-resistant. The materials also make manual cleaning easier. At the same time, good corrosion protection and resistance to greater loads can be expected. The molded filters can also be punched, pressed, embossed, soldered or welded. If certain hurdles need to be overcome during filtration, Wiremesh-ProTec is happy to help as an expert in the field with years of experience and comprehensive know-how. We not only provide customized advice, but also take all individual requirements into account when finding a solution.
