Conical Strainer Installation

Installation of a conical strainer can be done in one of two different ways, cone facing upstream or cone facing downstream.

When cone is downstream, debris collects inside of the cone near the tip and cone may rip apart due to heavy strain on the tip.

Advantage of cone downstream side is easier removal of debris. But mechanical strength of cone shall be ensured.

When cone is upstream, debris collects to the side of the strainer. Its advantage is that any plugging of the strainer will start in the outside and work its way in.

Why need to replace the Extruder Screen ?

When a new extruder screen is placed into production, there is typically 40-100 psi present in the equipment. As production continues, the filtered contaminants begin to block the opening of extruder screen mesh, causing pressure to build up.

When this happens, the extruder screen must be replaced.

Types Of Filter Media

The filter media we can produce includes woven mesh, wedge wire screen,perforated plate,expanded metal

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.

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 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.

Expanded metal

Expanded metal is being slit and stretched by punching machines, forming into various hole patterns. It has sturdy construction and more rigid and solid than the wire mesh filter tubes.

The End Ring of Cylindrical Filter

Ourun Wire Mesh can fabricate a range of end rings of cylindrical filters.

The Mesh Media for Making Cone Strainers

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. Woven mesh can remove particle sizes down to 40 micron, however ‘standard’ mesh screens typically remove particle sizes in the range of 0.4 mm to 1.0 mm. A mesh screen can be strengthened by layering it together with a Perforated Plate
