Expanded Metal
Expanded metal is a versatile and durable product that can be used in a wide range of applications, from industrial and commercial to decorative and
architectural. To help you choose the right expanded metal product for your needs, we've put together this technical fact sheet that covers some of the key details you should know about expanded metal.
The vibrating screen wire mesh works by using a vibrating motor to create vibrations that cause the screen mesh to vibrate, allowing materials to pass through the openings in the mesh based on their size. The vibrating motor is attached to the screen frame, and as it rotates, it creates vibrations that cause the material on the screen to move and separate into different sizes.
Vibrating screen wire mesh is commonly used in industries such as mining, quarrying, construction, and others for the efficient screening of various materials. It is available in a range of sizes and openings to suit different requirements and can be customized to fit specific dimensions as needed. It is also easy to install and maintain, making it a cost-effective solution for your screening needs.
- Material: Expanded metal can be made from a variety of materials, including steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and other metals. The material used can affect the strength, durability, and corrosion resistance of the expanded metal.
- Thickness: The thickness of the metal sheet before it was expanded is an important factor to consider, as it can affect the strength and rigidity of the expanded metal. Thickness is usually measured in gauge or mm.
- SWD and LWD: The diamond-shaped openings in the expanded metal sheet are formed by stretching and cutting the metal strands in a specific pattern. The width and length of the strands can affect the size and shape of the diamond openings.
- Strand thickness: The thickness of the strands can also affect the strength and durability of the expanded metal, as well as the size of the diamond openings.
Highlights:-
- Open area: The percentage of open area in the expanded metal sheet is an important factor to consider for certain applications where air or light flow is required. Open area can be calculated based on the size and spacing of the diamond openings.
- Standard sizes: Expanded metal sheets are available in a range of standard sizes, including width and length dimensions. Knowing the standard sizes available can help you determine the most cost-effective option for your needs.
- Applications: Expanded metal can be used for a variety of applications, such as fencing, grating, walkways, filters, and decorative purposes. The application will determine the material, thickness, strand width and length, and other factors required for the expanded metal.
- Customization: If you need expanded metal in a size, shape, or finish that isn't available as a standard option, customization may be possible. Contact us about custom orders.
In summary, expanded metal is a versatile and durable product that can be customized to suit a variety of applications. By understanding the material, thickness, strand width and length, open area, surface finish, applications, customization options, and standards compliance, you can choose the right expanded metal product for your needs.
