Why Choose Wedge Wire Screen Basket?

JX Filtration April 30, 2025 Wedge Wire Basket

In industrial production, solid-liquid separation technology directly affects production efficiency and product quality. The pain points of traditional screens being easy to clog and having a short life span have long plagued enterprises, while Wedge wire screen basket that has emerged in recent years is becoming a star solution in the field of industrial filtration with its revolutionary design.

Structural innovation: scientifically designed precision barrier

The core of Wedge Wire Screen Basket lies in its unique V-wire welding process. By arranging the wedge wires with trapezoidal cross-sections longitudinally along the circumference, a conical or cylindrical screen blue is formed by precision welding, and the gaps between each wedge wire form a uniformly distributed filtration channel. This structure not only achieves millimeter-level gap precision control, but also through the gradually narrowing wedge design, the particles automatically slide down under the impact of centrifugal force or water flow to avoid jamming.

Technical advantages of Wedge Wire Screen Basket

Dynamic cleaning system: The inverted trapezoidal channel formed by the wedge wire generates micro-vibration force when the equipment is running, so that the particles stuck in the gap are automatically ejected, and with the high-pressure backwashing system, a 99% permeability rate is maintained.
Modular customization solution: supports material selection from food-grade 316 stainless steel to Hastelloy alloy, the screen gap accuracy can be controlled between 0.05 and 5 mm, and the diameter specifications cover 200 to 3,000 mm, meeting the diverse needs from pharmaceutical micro-powder classification to mine tailings treatment.
Mechanical reinforcement design: The combined structure of annular reinforcement ribs and support rings is adopted to keep the radial runout accuracy of 0.01 mm at a speed of 5,000 rpm, and the compressive strength is more than three times that of traditional screens.

With the upgrade of intelligent manufacturing, the intelligent Wedge Wire Screen Basket has integrated IoT sensors, which can monitor parameters such as flow rate and pressure difference in real time, providing data support for predictive maintenance.
