Nickel

Provides excellent resistance to corrosion and is often used for fine, detailed work.

Advantage of

Chemical Milled Precision Screens:

Air Intake and Filtration

screens can be used in the air intake areas of hair dryers to filter out dust, lint, and other small particles before the air is heated and blown out. This helps to prevent these particles from entering the internal components of the hair dryer, which could lead to reduced efficiency or damage. Design: The precise etching allows for a finely tuned mesh that ensures optimal airflow while trapping unwanted debris. This design helps maintain the performance and longevity of the hair dryer.

Protective Grilles

These screens often serve as protective grilles over air intake and exhaust openings. They help prevent hair, small objects, or fingers from coming into contact with the internal heating elements or fan blades, enhancing safety during use. Design: Chemical Milling process enables the creation of intricate and aesthetically pleasing patterns that can be both functional and visually appealing.

Applications of Precision Screens

Food & Sugar Industry

High-Precision Filtration: In the food industry, screens can be used for high-precision filtration applications. They are used in processes such as the filtration of juices, sugar, mineral , grinding & wines, and other liquids where fine particle removal is essential to ensure product quality and consistency.

Pharmaceutical Industry

Filter Membranes: Chemical Milled screens are used in the pharmaceutical industry to create filter membranes with very precise pore sizes. These membranes are crucial for sterilizing solutions, separating active ingredients, and ensuring the purity of pharmaceutical products.

Automotive Industry

Precision Components: In automotive manufacturing, screens are used to create precision components, such as filters for air and fuel systems. These components require exact specifications and fine details to function correctly and meet performance standards.

Hair Dryer

Air Intake and Filtration
