Wedge Wire Screen, also called wire wrapped screen, v wire screen, profile wire screen, and continuous slot screen. It is a welded steel structure, profile wire usually V-shaped, that is resistance welded onto support rods. Each intersection of the profiles wire and support rod is well welded. The wedge wire screen has a smooth surface, is resistant to clogging, and has greater structural strength. The numerous combinations of profile wires and support rods, and the wide range of apertures between the wires and rods allow us to design a screen according to your required specification.
*non-clogging: the continuous slot formed by the V-shaped surface wires ensures a
two-point contact between the particles and the slot, which minimizes clogging.
*high-precision slot sizes: precise slot sizes are available to meet customers´ requirements.
*surface filtration: the V-shaped surface wires allow easy cleaning by mechanical scraping or backflushing.
*low pressure-drop.
*strong construction: for most applications, the wedge wire screen is self-supporting, because of the welding at each intersection.
