Wedge Wire Screen Cylinder – Stainless Steel Rotary Drum Screen for Filtration

Wedge wire screen cylinder, also known as wedge wire drum screen or rotary drum screen, is a high-efficiency filtration and separation component widely used in industrial processing systems. It is manufactured by welding V-shaped profile wires onto support rods and forming them into a cylindrical structure.

This design creates continuous slot openings that allow precise filtration while preventing clogging. The cylindrical shape makes it ideal for rotating drum filtration systems, where liquid-solid separation is required under continuous operation.

Wedge wire screen cylinders are widely used in water treatment, wastewater processing, food production, mining, and industrial filtration systems. At WireMeshi, we supply high-quality stainless steel wedge wire cylinders with customized sizes and slot openings to meet different operational requirements.

Structure & Working Principle

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper matt

Wedge wire screen cylinders consist of:

  • Profile Wire (V-shaped wire)
    Forms the filtration surface with precise slot openings
  • Support Rods
    Maintain structural strength and stability
  • Cylindrical Design
    Enables rotation in drum filtration systems

Working Principle:

In a rotary drum screen system:

  • Liquid flows into or over the rotating cylinder
  • Clean water passes through the slots
  • Solids are retained on the surface
  • Rotation helps remove accumulated materials

This continuous process ensures efficient filtration with minimal maintenance.
