Plastic Extruder Screens: Essential for Purity in Extrusion

JD Hardware Wire Mesh Co., Ltd specializes in manufacturing and exporting high-quality Plastic Extruder Screens and Filters, vital for melt filtration in plastic and rubber processing. Our range includes Single Extruder Screens, Spot Welded, and Rim Extruder Screen Packs, designed to enhance machinery efficiency and productivity. Made from durable materials in various weaves, our screens offer diverse micron ratings to meet specific filtration needs, ensuring clean and efficient extrusion and reliable machinery performance.

Classification

• Single Extruder Screens: These screens are particularly effective in industries where raw material contamination is low and extruder head pressure is moderate. Featuring a Dutch Weave filter backed by a plain weave filter, they are widely used in plastic reclamation, extruded profiles, and blown film industries.
• Spot Welded Wire Mesh Filter Packs: Ideal for applications demanding precise graduation filtration, these packs prevent the misplacement of single screen filters in the extruder. A typical pack configuration, such as 10mesh / 20mesh / 10mesh, ensures effective operation irrespective of how it is inserted into the extruder head.
• Rim Extruder Screen Packs: Constructed with spot-welded packs and reinforced with a rim of Aluminium or Stainless Steel for added strength and rigidity. These packs are exceptionally suited for high-pressure environments or where there’s a risk of contamination circumventing the breaker plate’s edge.

Standard Sizes and Shapes

Extruder Screens and Filters are available in a wide range of standard sizes and shapes, designed to meet the diverse needs of various machinery and optimize filtration efficiency in different extrusion processes. This extensive variety ensures the most efficient filtration for each specific type of machinery and process.The range includes:

• Circular Screens: Commonly preferred, these screens come in diameters ranging from 25mm to 600mm, accommodating a wide array of operational scales and making them versatile for multiple uses.
• Square and Rectangular Screens: For applications that require more specific dimensions, square and rectangular screens are offered, with typical sizes spanning from 30mm x 30mm to 500mm x 500mm. These are ideal for processes where a non-circular screen is more effective.
• Oval and Kidney-Shaped Screens: Catering to equipment that necessitates unique shapes for effective filtration, oval and kidney-shaped screens are provided. Their longest dimensions range from 100mm to 400mm, making them suitable for specific machinery configurations.
• Cones and Custom Shapes: For highly specialized applications where standard shapes do not suffice, cones and other custom-shaped screens are available. These are carefully crafted to meet the particular needs of diverse extrusion machinery, ensuring that each screen fits perfectly and functions optimally in its designated machine.

Customization Capabilities

Extruder Screens and Filters provide extensive customization options, enabling precise tailoring for various plastic and rubber processing applications. This flexibility is key to improving the performance and lifespan of the machinery they are used in. Such customization guarantees that each screen and filter is precisely engineered to meet specific application requirements, ensuring optimal performance and durability.

• Material Choices: The materials used for these screens and filters include Black wire cloth, SUS304, SUS316, and SUS316L stainless steel wire mesh, as well as brass wire mesh. Each material is selected for its unique properties such as durability, chemical resistance, and filtration efficiency, making them suitable for various operational conditions.
• Custom Design: Beyond standard shapes, screens and filters can be custom-designed to specifically fit particular machinery designs or to meet unique filtration tasks. This ensures a perfect fit and optimal function for any specific application.
• Edge Reinforcement: For added strength, especially in high-pressure situations, the screens can be equipped with edges reinforced with Aluminum. Alternatively, for less demanding applications, they can be left non-framed.
• Layering Options: The screens offer varying layering options, ranging from a single layer to up to 5 layers, and even multiple layers for more complex filtration needs. This variety in layering significantly influences the filtration grade and is crucial for processes that require either finer or more robust filtration.
