Stainless Steel Plain Dutch Weave Mesh Factory

Stainless Steel Plain Dutch Weave Mesh

Plain Dutch weave mesh combines two fine warp wires with two coarser weft wires in an over‑under pattern, producing small rectangular slots that deliver finer filtration and higher open‑area than equivalent plain weave. At Anping CREMOTIVE, we produce plain Dutch mesh with warp:weft counts from 100 × 25 up to 400 × 100 wires per inch, yielding slots as small as 40 µm × 80 µm.

Manufacturing Highlights

• Wire Pairing: Warp wires as small as 0.05 mm are paired and woven over thicker weft wires (up to 0.5 mm), locking them into a rigid lattice.

• Automated Weaving: High‑precision looms manage warp tension and weft insertion to maintain slot uniformity within ±10 %.

• Post‑Weave Treatment: Annealing, pickling, and passivation ensure dimensional stability and corrosion protection.

Performance & Properties

• Fine Retention: Cut‑points down to 10 µm when multi‑stage panels are assembled.

• Open‑Area Efficiency: Ratios of 30 %–45 % support high flow‑through rates while achieving fine filtration.

• Structural Rigidity: The coarser weft wires carry mechanical loads, allowing large unsupported spans.

Key Applications

• Membrane Prefiltration: Protecting reverse‑osmosis and ultrafiltration membranes from particulate fouling in water treatment.

• Catalyst Recovery: Separation of sub‑50 µm catalyst fines in chemical reactors, improving catalyst reuse and reducing process downtime.

• Food & Beverage Polishing: Clarification of fruit juices, wine, and beer without impacting flavor or color.

Customization & Quality Control
We supply panels, discs, and cylinders, supporting flange or clamp mounting. Quality routines include slot measurement via image analysis, pressure‑drop testing at predefined flow rates, and tensile tests on wire bundles. Mill certificates and inspection reports accompany each order.

Maintenance & Lifecycle
Dutch weave mesh withstands in‑place backflushing, steam sterilization (up to 120 °C), and mild acid or caustic CIP. Under typical operating regimes, service intervals extend beyond 12 months before requiring ultrasonic regeneration or replacement.
