KnitMesh Technologies’ Mesh Rolls offer an incredibly versatile solution for a wide range of applications. With the ability to use almost any material that can be drawn into a wire or a filament, these Mesh Rolls are a go-to choice for industries looking for reliable and adaptable mesh solutions.
One of the key advantages of KnitMesh Technologies’ Mesh Rolls is their flexibility in wire diameter. While round wires ranging from 0.11mm to 0.35mm diameter are commonly knitted, the manufacturing process allows for even smaller wires with diameters as small as 0.03mm or as large as 0.8mm to be used, catering to specialised applications.
In addition to wire diameter flexibility, KnitMesh Technologies also offers the option of flattened wires and multi-filament knitting. This innovative approach increases the surface area of the knitted wire mesh, enhancing its capabilities in areas where increased surface coverage is required.
Moreover, KnitMesh Technologies’ Mesh Rolls can be further enhanced through a crimping process. By passing the knitted wire mesh through special rollers, a diagonal or herring-bone pattern can be achieved, providing the mesh with additional depth. This crimping technique typically results in a depth of between 4mm and 8mm, offering increased structural integrity and performance.
Knitted wire mesh is a remarkable material that seamlessly blends the traditional art of knitting with the strength and versatility of metal. While it is rooted in the same principles as garment knitting, the production of knitted wire mesh involves specialised machinery to intricately knit wire into a mesh pattern.
The defining feature of knitted wire mesh lies in its interlocking asymmetrical loops of wire. These loops not only facilitate movement and stretch in both horizontal and vertical directions, similar to fabric, but also endow the mesh with remarkable resilience. Each loop is akin to a small spring, enabling the mesh to withstand considerable stress and strain.
The adaptability of knitted wire mesh is another striking attribute. It can be utilised in its original flat form or undergo further processing through techniques such as layering, folding, coiling, stitching, or compressing. This flexibility allows for the customisation and tailoring of the mesh to suit a wide array of specific requirements and applications.
Knitted wire mesh finds utility across diverse industries, serving functions ranging from filtration and protection to insulation and aesthetic embellishment. Its unique combination of flexibility, strength, and adaptability has established it as a valuable material in fields as varied as automotive, aerospace, and industrial manufacturing.
