As a core component of industrial equipment such as centrifuges, vibrating screens, and filtration equipment, the performance and efficiency of the screen basket depend on multiple key attributes.
Material selection directly affects the applicable scenarios:
For example, stainless steel (304, 316L) is widely used in high-sanitation standard industries such as food and pharmaceuticals due to its corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance.
Carbon steel can reduce costs after plating and is suitable for general industrial environments; while polymer materials (such as polypropylene) or titanium alloys are respectively designed for special working conditions with strong corrosion or high corrosion resistance.
In terms of structural design, the mesh size (aperture), shape (round hole, slit, etc.) and opening rate jointly determine the separation accuracy and efficiency of the material, and the diameter and height need to match the equipment capacity requirements.
In terms of mechanical properties, the mesh basket needs to have sufficient strength to withstand centrifugal force or vibration loads, and at the same time, the life span can be extended through wear-resistant treatment (such as surface hardening), and the temperature resistance needs to adapt to high or low temperature working environments.
From the application scenario, the screen basket is widely used in the fields of chemical industry, mining, environmental protection, etc. For example, high manganese steel screen basket is used in mining to achieve ore classification, the pharmaceutical industry relies on 316L stainless steel precision screen basket to meet GMP standards, and sewage treatment tends to use corrosion-resistant polymer screen basket with anti-clogging design.
In addition, special designs such as detachable structure, self-cleaning surface or polishing treatment further enhance the practicality of the screen basket, ensuring its stable operation and convenient maintenance under complex working conditions.
