Woven Wire Cloth is also known as woven wire mesh, is woven on looms, shares a similar process that applied to the ones used to weave clothing. Metal wires are woven together to produce wire mesh cloth. The Woven wire mesh weaved by heavier wire gauges and larger opening sizes are called the Crimp Wire Cloth. And the woven mesh weaved by thinner wires, especially the ones used for filtration screens are called Fine Woven Cloth.
YMX Filter’s Woven Wire Cloth is produced on special wire weaving machines. A wide range of materials is used for manufacturing the mesh. The range of materials for metal meshes extends from non-alloyed steel to non-ferrous metal such as copper, bronze, brass, nickel, nickel-based alloys and high-alloy stainless steels through to titanium and precious metals. Depending on the material and weave type, porous media with a much wider range of uses than textile meshes can be produced.
The woven wire cloth also differs significantly from high-performance textiles: thanks to the mechanical capability, temperature resistance, conductivity and the versatile possibilities of metal processing. In the field of architecture, the meshes are also coated, painted, blastedand anodized.
The applications of the woven cloth are based on this fact that the meshes are always ideal media with precisely defined and reproducible pore sizes. They are therefore predestined for separation and filtration technology. At the same time, the even structures open up many application options in the field of architecture making versatile use of the combination of regularity, transparency and visual appearance.
In addition to the visual impact of metal meshes, the functional advantages in the field of architecture are also convincing, for example as an air-permeable exterior shell of multi-story car parks or stadiums. The structural properties of the mesh allow for an optimal combination of design and function in many applications: Sun protection, sound absorption for false ceilings, safety functions through roller shutters and railings or LED-equipped transparent media with metal mesh as the carrier material.
The remarkable strength and versatility of woven wire mesh make it an excellent choice for numerous applications,include:

Fine Woven Wire Cloth
The fine woven wire clothes are produced on looms as mesh rolls, mainly used in filtration industry. The meshes are stored in rolls. All further processing steps are then performed on the basis of this roll material.
The mesh rolls are used as a semi-finished product in applications where it is logistically undesirable to supply the material as strips or cut-to-size pieces due to the many different dimensional requirements.
Standard roll lengths range between 30 and 50 m. Depending on the mesh used, however, lengths of up to 300 m can be supplied.
Mesh rolls can be cleaned up to a width of 2 m and thermally treated up to a maximum width of 1 m.
If meshes are required in smaller widths, partial widths can be produced from a mesh roll and ultimately become mesh strips.
Weaving Types of Woven Cloth
Woven wire clothes are weaved in different patterns, such as PLAIN WEAVE, TWILL WEAVE, PLAIN DUTCH WEAVE, TWILL DUTCH WEAVE, REVERSE PLAIN DUTCH WEAVE, REVERSE TWILL DUTCH WEAVE, FIVE-HEDDLE WEAVE.
Plain Square Woven Wire
The most common weave type, with the same diameter warp and shute wires woven in a simple over and under pattern. It produces screens with the same mesh count in both directions.
Twill Square Woven Wire
Each shute wire typically passes over two warp wires and under two, producing square openings. Twill weave can be made from larger-diameter wires than would be possible in plain square weave to obtain greater strength, density or corrosion resistance.
Plain Dutch Woven Wire
Woven in a plain, over and under pattern. A thinner, smaller diameter shute wire is used; these are driven very close together creating a very tight weave. Dutch weaves do not have a straight-through, clear opening as do most plain weave styles. Instead the weave style creates a tortuous path through which very fine filtration and particle retention can be achieved. Dutch weaves may be specified by "mesh count" or "absolute filter rating."
This extremely tight mesh is ideally suited for filtration applications, as well as the separation of slurry and liquid materials.
Dutch Twill Weave
Similar to Plain Dutch except woven in the Twill style. Each wire passes over two wires then under two wires, still utilizing a smaller-diameter shute wire, allowing an even tighter weave and even finer filtration than Plain Dutch weave.
Twilled Dutch weave is capable of filtering materials as fine as two microns in diameter, making it well-suited for various liquid and gas applications.
Reverse Dutch Weave
The same weave as Plain Dutch except the warp and shute wires are reversed; the warp wires have a smaller diameter than the shute wires. The larger shute wires are woven closer together than would usually be seen in a Plain Dutch weave.
Reverse plain Dutch weave is ideally suited for solid filtration applications where maintaining mechanical stability is of primary importance, such as those involving heavy-duty cleaning processes, centrifugal filter cake removal or back washing.
Five Heddle Weave
Five heddle weave provides a rectangular opening. The unique design of this mesh can assist increased drainage and flow properties. This mesh also has a smooth surface on one side, which is widely used in filtration of petroleum chemical industries, in the form of filter ribbons and filter elements.
Five heddle weave offers high flow rates and is suitable for high mechanical loads, featuring a lightly structured mesh surface. Five-heddle woven meshes are popular in applications including pressure and vacuum filters as well as filter candles.
Woven wire is available on the roll or cut to size
YMX supply woven wire cloth both in rolls and custom cut sized strips.It is always identified with labels showing the material description, mesh and aperture or wire diameter, dimensions and number of pieces, if applicable. Standard roll lengths are 1m wide 30 meters long, or 1.22m wide 30 meters long. A limited number of woven wire cloth are available up to 2m wide.
These are always available in stainless steel and in some specifications, plain and galvanised steel. Other metals and special alloys are generally made to order - please contact us with your special requirements.
