Wire cloth weaves and fabricates industrial wire mesh baskets in a wide variety of styles, materials, frames, and lifting devices. Thousands are in use throughout the industry. Each is custom-built to meet your specific requirements for:
Bales, handles or hooks may be attached to the basket so they are: stationary, droppable, or swiveling in operation.
Basket styles fabricated by Cleveland Wirecloth include:
Certain baskets may be formed from woven wire cloth with no special hardware. However, where frames are required, round or rectangular, they may be constructed from rod, flat, or angle stock. Basket tops may be equipped with smooth finish “U” bindings. Built-in accessories may include legs, lids, shelves, dividers, compartments, and sections. Baskets for small parts may be furnished with a small opening screen inner liner, with outer protection of heavy screen for strength. Assembly may be by welding or through fusion by spot, gas, or electric arc. Special cases may require clinched wire around the rod, riveting of screen to the frame, or soldering and brazing. After fabrication, woven wire baskets may be protected with additional coatings (e.g. zinc, tin, rubber, enamel or other suitable coatings).
Fabricated wire mesh is often used for burners and heater elements; flame guards and spark arrestors; vent screens; machinery and equipment safety guards and cages; screen sections for sizing and sifting equipment; shielding and sound control components.
The most important part of the strainer or filter is the screen, which guards an orifice or protects moving parts. One particle of scale, dirt, or other entrainment can cause serious damage to highly engineered, expensive equipment. To prevent equipment damage and protect against contamination, strainer screens must be designed of durable, corrosion-resistant materials with the specific application in mind. Cleveland Wirecloth individualizes strainers to customers’ design or we design a strainer to fit specific requirements. Our modern production facilities include electronic welding, soldering, stamping, rolling, folding, seaming, brazing, with particular attention being given to the finish desired.
Woven wire is the most popular material used in the manufacture of modern strainer screens. This is partly due to its inherent characteristics — high percentage of open area and roundness — which favor high flow and are ideal for flow patterns. Other reasons for woven wire popularity include its high strength and its ability to withstand extreme temperature variations, corrosive environments and vibration.
Woven screens find their greatest use in low and medium-pressure applications and typically range from 60-400 mesh. In high-pressure service, the fine mesh screen may be supported by a coarse backing screen. Plain weave screens ranging from .0008″ openings upward represent the bulk of strainer applications. For high pressures or heavy loads, twilled weaves are recommended.
Wire mesh for this application offers superior shielding to radio frequency interaction (RFI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) when blocking incoming or outgoing energy is necessary to optimize functioning capabilities.
Wire cloth mesh screens are ideal guards and protective screens for equipment and machinery. Mesh guards offer great protection while allowing high visibility to moving parts of the machine.
Whether seen or unseen, wire cloth plays a vital role in functionality in numerous OEM applications.
While welded wire mesh is more commonly used for concrete reinforcement, woven wire cloth mesh is used to reinforce various other materials, such as the structure and support of medical implants. Titanium wire cloth is often used in these medical applications, as well as stainless steel for procedures such as hip replacements. The wire cloth mesh is often laminated between synthetics to create a more rigid structure for a variety of applications
Maximum vibrating screen production and efficiency is a result of many important factors. Some of these include selection of the vibrator; length and stroke of the unit; feed rate and method of feed; direction of rotation of circular action; and finally, the selection of screening media with the proper “hook” or screen edge preparation. Preformed metal hooks are engineered and designed for the grade of screen used to provide a means of applying tension until the surface is “taut.” A “taut” screening surface is essential for successful vibration performance.
Architectural mesh excels in enhancing acoustics by deflecting and diffusing sound throughout any space. Wire mesh acoustic panels or drapes are suitable for both ceilings and walls, optimizing sound quality effectively. Ideal for environments from performing arts centers to office spaces.
Architectural mesh, particularly fine mesh, boasts exceptional flexibility, enabling it to be molded, bent, and twisted to fit various free-from structures. Its versatility allows for the creation of distinctive art installations and unique sculptural pieces.
