In the field of precision filtration, the performance of metal wire mesh filter discs directly determines the overall system's production efficiency and product purity. Whether in the petrochemical, pharmaceutical, or food and beverage industries, customized filter components are crucial for ensuring process stability.
However, faced with complex specifications, buyers often struggle to balance filtration accuracy with lifespan. As a supplier with years of manufacturing experience, Kewei Metal Mesh summarizes five key factors to consider when customizing precision filter discs.
Ⅰ. Material selection: Not only corrosion resistant
The material is the "soul" of the filter disc. Different working environments place vastly different demands on the chemical stability and mechanical strength of the metal wire.
• 304/316L Stainless Steel:The most common choice, offering excellent corrosion resistance and cost-effectiveness, suitable for most industrial liquid filtration applications.
• Titanium:Suitable for strong acids, strong alkalis, or seawater desalination environments.
• Nickel and Nickel Alloys (Nickel/Monel/Hastelloy):Essential solutions for extremely high temperatures or specific chemical media (such as hydrofluoric acid).
Note:Before customization, please be sure to confirm the pH value and operating temperature of the medium. Incorrect material selection will cause premature intergranular corrosion of the filter.
Ⅱ. Filtration accuracy and mesh structure
Precision is reflected in the ability to intercept micron-sized particles. You need to choose the appropriate weave method based on the size of the target impurities:
• Plain/Twill Weave: Suitable for primary filtration with high transmittance and low resistance.
• Dutch Weave: This structure provides finer pores and higher strength, making it the preferred choice for absolute filtration accuracy.
Note: When customizing, it is necessary to specify whether nominal or absolute accuracy is required, as this affects the filter's interception efficiency.
Ⅲ. Single-layer vs. multi-layer composite structure
• Single-layer filter: Simple structure, easy to clean, suitable for low-pressure environments.
• Multi-layer spot-welded/sintered filter: Combines mesh layers of different mesh sizes. The multi-layer structure significantly improves the compressive strength of the filter and prevents mesh deformation under high pressure differentials.
Ⅳ. Edge treatment process
• Rimmed/Framed: The edges are wrapped with aluminum, stainless steel, or copper sheets. This increases the overall rigidity of the filter and ensures a perfect seal when installed in the pipeline.
• Unrimmed/Spot-Welded Edges: Suitable for recessed installations and lower cost, but ensures the edges are free of burrs to avoid scratching equipment or contaminating downstream materials.
Ⅴ. Why choose Kewei as your customization partner?
