With corrosion resistance, high strength and durability, 304 stainless steel screen mesh is an important accessory in vibrating sieve screening operations. Especially in the chemical, food, pharmaceutical, mining and other industries, the vibrating screen needs to deal with wet, high temperature or corrosive materials for a long time, 304 stainless steel screen can effectively extend the service life of the screen.
This article will introduce in detail the characteristics of 304 stainless steel screen mesh, the key role in the vibrating screen, and how to choose the right 304 stainless steel screen mesh to optimize the screening effect, to help you improve the production efficiency and reduce the maintenance cost.
304 Stainless Steel Woven Wire Mesh Cool Weaving Process
304 Stainless Steel Woven Wire Mesh usually adopts plain, twill or dense weaving process, with even mesh and strong filtration. Plain weaving has a simple structure and high tensile strength, which is suitable for conventional screening; twill weaving can improve the flexibility of the mesh surface and reduce material clogging; dense weaving is suitable for fine screening, such as medicine, powder metallurgy and other industries. Due to the good elasticity and wear resistance of stainless steel wire, 304 stainless steel woven mesh is not easy to be deformed under the long-term impact of vibrating screen, and the screening precision is stable. In addition, 304 stainless steel woven mesh can be electropolished or electrolytically treated, which can enhance the surface finish and reduce the adhesion of materials.
Application of 304 stainless steel woven wire mesh
Because of the advantages of 304 stainless steel woven wire mesh such as corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, easy to clean, it is widely used in the vibrating screening industry
The following industries are commonly used in vibrating screening:
Food industry: the industry of sieving flour, starch, icing sugar, seasoning and other food-grade fine screening.
Chemical industry: sieving fertiliser, plastic granules, corrosive chemical raw materials and other industries with strong acidity and alkalinity.
Pharmaceutical industry: used for medicine powder, granules, Chinese medicine extract classification and filtration industry.
Mining and metallurgy: screening quartz sand, metal powder, coal and other industries with severe wear and tear.
Environmental protection and water treatment: used in sewage treatment, filter mesh and other corrosion-friendly industries.
Economy of 304 stainless steel woven wire mesh
Compared with 316 stainless steel, 304 stainless steel woven wire mesh has higher cost performance in common industrial environment. 316 stainless steel performs better in strong acid and high chlorine ion environment (such as seawater and chemical plating) because of molybdenum (Mo) element, but the cost is higher. While 304 stainless steel woven mesh has been able to meet the demand in most vibrating screen applications, such as food processing, general chemical screening, etc., which can guarantee the performance and reduce the purchase cost. In addition, 304 stainless steel woven mesh is easy to process, can be customised with different mesh (10 mesh 500 mesh) and wire diameter (0.03mm2mm), more suitable for different screening needs.
Conclusion:
As a manufacturer with thirty years of experience in manufacturing vibrating screening equipment, all vibrating screens produced by Sanyuantang are made of high-quality 304 stainless steel woven mesh, which has excellent abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance and screening precision. They are widely used in food, chemical, pharmaceutical and mining industries. If you need professional screening solutions or technical guidance, please feel free to contact our engineer team.
