Key Applications
Beverage Production
Juices & Soft Drinks: Used for pulp separation, clarification, and concentrate production.
Beer & Wine: Applied in mash filtration, yeast separation, and clarification steps.
Sugar Processing
Screening of sugarcane or sugar beet juice.
Separation of bagasse fibers and removal of coarse solids before refining.
Dairy Industry
Clarification of milk and whey.
Pre-filtration before ultrafiltration or reverse osmosis membranes.
Edible Oils & Fats
Used in crude oil filtration (soybean, palm, sunflower, olive oil).
Helps in removing suspended solids before refining and bleaching stages.
Food Ingredients & Additives
Applied in starch processing, flavoring extracts, and food additives production.
Provides reliable particle separation and ensures product consistency.
Advantages in Food & Beverage Applications
Non-clogging slot design → continuous flow and reduced downtime.
High mechanical strength → suitable for large volumes and high-pressure operations.
Corrosion-resistant stainless steel (304/316L) → compliant with food safety standards.
Easy to clean & sterilize (CIP/SIP compatible) → maintains hygiene and reduces contamination risks.
Customizable slot sizes (typically 25 µm – 2000 µm) → adaptable to different process needs.
Wedge wire screens are essential in the food and beverage industry for efficient solid–liquid separation, product clarification, and process protection. Their durability, hygiene compliance, and excellent cleanability make them a preferred choice in applications ranging from beverages and dairy to sugar, edible oils, and food additives.
