Slotted screen has a higher open area than conventional square opening wire mesh, resulting in an increased throughput. When compared to rectangular opening wire mesh, slotted screen can effectively avoid deformation caused by undesirable factors, while delivering greater wear and impact resistance. The additional crimps generate a vibration action helping to reduce blinding, and create tumbling effect for better fines removal. The slotted mesh is ideal for complete screening of materials by slowing material down to offer more time for material to pass over the openings.

Red Star is able to offer customer-specific woven wire screens to cater to your individual applications needs.
woven wire mesh with slotted openings could be woven in any slot length and with any number of wires in clusters. This type of opening provides greater open area, in addition to higher production compare to regular square mesh. Designed to screen scalp flat, elongated particles, and smaller materials in wet conditions, and also to reduce clogging or blinding of material. Slotted screens could be customized to have a long aperture with or against the material flow. As one of the professional screen mesh suppliers, our slotted screens are long wearing even against the most high-impact applications to be found in quarries and mines.
Application of Slotted Mesh Screens:
Slotted mesh screens provided by screen mesh suppliers are used in various applications where separating solids and liquids is necessary. Some of the most common applications of slotted mesh screens include:
Water well drilling:
Slotted mesh screens are commonly used in water well drilling to filter out sand and other small particles from the water.
Mining:
Slotted mesh screens are used in the mining industry to filter out particles from drilling mud and other fluids. The screens are also used to process minerals to remove unwanted particles and impurities.
Oil and gas industry:
Slotted mesh screens are used in the oil and gas industry to filter out sand and other particles from the drilling fluid.
Features of Slotted Screen Mesh:
Increased open areas than square mesh
Less blinding when screening damp material
Engineered to increase screening efficiency and reduce blinding
Improve effective wear life of screens
Wide range of openings and sizes to meet your requirements
Ideal when sizing accuracy is secondary to screening capacity

Characteristics of Slotted Screens:
Slot Size: The width of the slots can be customized depending on the required separation size, usually in millimeters or microns.
Material: Typically made of durable materials such as stainless steel, high-carbon steel, or polyurethane to withstand abrasive conditions.
Shape and Design: The slots are aligned in parallel, allowing for better material flow and reduced clogging.
