Stainless Steel Perforated Wire Mesh Filter Tubes Used In Automotive Industry
One of the most popular methods, however, is perforated metal machining or Etching. When this particular method is used, a piece of sheet metal is continuously cut and stretched by a machine that forms it into the pattern of a wire mesh filter. The biggest advantage of perforated metal machining is that it avoids the creation of any metal waste during manufacturing. After the mesh has been created, it is cut to the exact size that the filter needs to be for its application.
Wire mesh filters can be found in many different applications. Small wire mesh filters are found on the top of microphones, in the plumbing systems of many showers and taps, in dryers and in automotive oil filters. Because wire mesh filters can be made with such a wide range of specifications, they can be used in literally dozens of completely different industrial and household applications.
