Wedge Wire Sieve Bend Screens

Wedge Wire Sieve Bend Screens for optimal dewatering and desliming screen performance

For separating solids from liquids, choose the efficiency of Wedge Wire Sieve Bend Screens from FLSmidth, the market leaders in screen media. They can be custom made and designed for your needs in applications across a wide range of industries.

Key Benefit

Energy-efficient, quiet, safe and rotatable screening

Energy-efficient expand_more

The curved screen of a sieve bend provides greater capacity than flat wedge screens due to increased gravitational forces on material flowing against the curve.

Corrosion and abrasion resistant expand_more

FLSmidth offers you the highest quality Wedge Wire Sieve Bend Screens which are custom designed for applications in a wide range of industries – anything from mineral processing and coal washing plants to gold recovery and waste water processing.

Accurate slots expand_more

Our quality sieve bend screens consist of a concave curved profile wire screen mounted in a frame with the screen openings either perpendicular to the flow (Cross Flow) or parallel to the flow (With Flow). In Cross Flow applications the profile wire is given a small tilt of a few degrees so that the material can run onto a sharp cutting edge to increase the screening efficiency. Once the sharp edges have worn away, the sieve bends can be rotated by 180 degrees so that material can once again run onto sharp edges. The sharp edges are naturally reformed on the trailing edge.

Customised design expand_more

Both wedge wire sieve bend units and replacement wedge wire sieve bend screens are available to suit your existing unit. The complete units come in a variety of designs to facilitate the need to rotate the screens by 180 degrees and some include pneumatic cylinders to assist with this process. Special wear linings can be incorporated in the feed box and under pans to extend the service life.
