Woven Mesh Products As a supplier for many different industries and applications, GKD produces a wide variety of woven wire meshes. Our production program for Square Mesh ranges in aperture sizes from 0.025 mm to 14 mm. Requirements in the area of fine filtration are met by using Micronic Meshes with filter grades ranging from nomimal 1 µm upwards. In addition to our standard mesh stock program, we also weave special production for customer-specific applications.
PZ-Microdur and KPZ-Microdur weaves are the main focus in wire mesh production for applications in the field of precoat-filtration. Production is geared to maintaining large stocks of market standards in the materials AISI 316L and 904L (1.4404 and 1.4539) to ensure shortest response times for customer requirements.
For the Plain and Twilled Dutch Weaves used in this field, as well as the corresponding support meshes, GKD manufactures and inventories material on a needs-oriented basis.
For other applications, TELA cloth (5-heddle atlas weave) and Multiplex Weaves are produced upon customer request.
Depending on the application, GKD can weave mesh in widths up to 3 m. For filtration of high viscous media, GKD produces Optimized Plain Dutch Weave filter media with filter grades ranging from 10 µm to 80 µm. In many cases GKD mesh is supplied in rolls or strips ready for final fabrication by the filter manufacturers.
Our newest development in the woven wire mesh sector is the innovative filter composite YMAX®. This filament-wire connection made of stainless steel offers two advantages—high porosity with absolute homogeneous pore structure and high mechanical stability. Retention rates range from 3 µm to 100 µm. High mechanical strength coupled with flexibility allows for highly efficient surface and depth filtration with a single filter media.
