Wedge wire centrifuge screen baskets provide cylindrical or conical screening surfaces for centrifugal dewatering. The basket geometry, mounting joint, slot direction and rotating assembly are specified together.
Wedge wire screensShare a drawing, reference sample or application requirements to discuss the configuration.
The screening wall, end rings and mounting structure form a machine-specific rotating component.
| Parameter | Specification | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Working geometry | Cylindrical / conical | Identify inlet and solids-discharge ends. |
| Cylindrical dimensions | Working diameter × active length | Record overall mounting dimensions separately. |
| Conical dimensions | Small diameter × large diameter × axial length | State cone angle and measuring datums. |
| Screening surface | Continuous-slot profile wire | Measure opening at the working face. |
| Support structure | Reinforced screen and mounting rings | Match support positions to machine interfaces. |
| Mounting joint | Locating seat, flange and fixing pattern | Define the rotation-axis datum. |
| Material options | 304 / 316L / 2205 / 2507 | Identify each load-bearing and wetted part. |
| Assembly checks | Slots, radial runout and axial face runout | Use mounting datums and the specified balancing schedule. |
| Minimum working-face slot | 25 µm | Fine-slot centrifuge basket construction; the slot is measured between adjacent working-wire faces, with the wire section and basket geometry specified separately. |
Materials: 304 / 316L stainless steel; 2205 / 2507 duplex stainless steel for the specified construction and process duty.
The basket forms the permeable wall of a screening centrifuge. Liquid passes through the slots under centrifugal loading while retained solids move along the specified discharge path. The component schedule identifies the screening surface, support structure, mounting ring and discharge edge.
Cylindrical baskets are defined by working diameter and length. Conical baskets require both end diameters, axial length and cone angle. Inlet and discharge ends are identified explicitly so the slot surface and end rings match the machine geometry.
The narrow opening is measured at the working face of the profile wires. Wire direction and support positions are coordinated with solids travel and the machine’s transport mechanism. The back of the screening surface provides the liquid exit path; reinforcement and mounting features are recorded separately.
The installation drawing defines the locating diameter, axial seat, bolt pattern and rotation axis. Radial runout and axial face runout refer to those datums. The drawing also carries the operating-speed and balancing requirements of the complete rotating assembly, along with the inspection method.
Choose 304 or 316L stainless steel, or a defined 2205/2507 duplex construction, for the actual corrosion and wear duty. Inspect slots, working geometry, attachment and mounting surfaces. A replacement schedule includes feed, solids, liquid, cleaning and machine-interface data so the new basket fits its specific position.
| Component | Function | Drawing information | Inspection datum |
|---|---|---|---|
| Screen wall | Retains solids and releases liquid | Slot direction and working geometry | Working face |
| Support rings | Support the screening wall | Section, spacing and joint locations | Basket axis |
| Mounting flange or seat | Locates the rotating component | Diameters, face and fixing pattern | Installation axis and seat |
| Discharge edge | Connects to the solids exit | End diameter, lip and clearance | Discharge interface |
| Wire face width (mm) | Wire profile height (mm) | Profile relief angle (°) |
|---|---|---|
| 0.8 | 1.9 | 6.5 |
| 1.2 | 2.5 | 10 |
| 1.5 | 2.5 | 13 |
| 1.8 | 3.2 | 10 |
| 1.8 | 4.7 | 6 |
| 2.3 | 3.8 | 13 |
| 3.2 | 5.1 | 13 |
| 3.3 | 7.9 | 8 |
Each row pairs the face width, profile height and relief angle of one V-wire section. The angle describes the wire cross-section; the basket cone angle is defined by the basket drawing. Select the working-face slot separately, then coordinate wire direction, supports and mounting rings with the rotating assembly.
