BTOSLOT Wedge Wire Screen--V Shaped Profiler Wire Mesh Screen
Release Time:
2026-05-25
A wedge wire screen (also known as a "Johnson" or "vee wire" screen) is a highly durable industrial filter made by continously resistance-welding V-shaped profile wires onto perpendicular support rods. Its inward-widening slots resist clogging and ensure precise, high-capacity solid-liquid separation.
Key Advantages
Wedge wire is favored over woven wire mesh or perforated plates in demanding applications due to several key benefits:
- Non-clogging: The V-shape creates only two contact points for particles, minimizing the chances of lodging or blockage.
- High Flow Rates: The design provides a massive open surface area, allowing for large volumetric flow with minimal pressure drop.
- Structural Strength: The welded support rods offer high mechanical strength, making them capable of withstanding heavy loads and immense pressure.
- Easy to Clean: The smooth surface is highly suitable for backwashing or blow-washing.
Common Applications
Because of its durability and sanitary properties, you'll find wedge wire screens in a wide variety of industries:
- Water Treatment: Used in intake screens, municipal water filtration, and well screens.
- Food and Beverage: Utilized for separation, straining, and dewatering in sugar refining, brewing, and dairy processing.
- Mining and Minerals: Employed for desliming, sizing, and dehydrating aggregates and coal.
- Chemical and Petrochemical: Used in catalyst retention and molecular sieve support beds.
