Montreal-based Major Wire Industries Limited now offers a full line of new 1-foot x 2-foot (305 mm to 610 mm) Flex-Mat® 3 Self-Cleaning Polyurethane Modular screen media panels. This new screen media size fits virtually any flat-surface screen deck, so screening operations using traditional 1-foot x 1-foot (305 mm x 305 mm) and 1-foot x 2-foot polyurethane and rubber panels can increase their existing screening capacity and in-spec material throughput up to 50 percent. Screening operations can choose between pin-, grooved-, snap- and step-types in opening sizes of 30 mesh, or 0.020 inches, up to 1-1/2 inches (30 mesh, or 0.5 mm, to 38 mm). Proven Flex-Mat 3 Modular 1-foot x 1-foot panels were introduced earlier in 2007.
Both Flex-Mat 3 Modular’s 1-foot x 1-foot and 1-foot x 2-foot panels provide up to 50 percent more screen open area than traditional rigid polyurethane and rubber panels. In addition, each new 1-foot x 2-foot Flex-Mat 3 Modular panel increases total screen media open area by 4.6% when compared to using two 1-foot x 1-foot panels to cover the same screen deck area. No screen box changes are necessary to switch to the larger panels.
One key to Flex-Mat 3’s success in both tensioned and modular screen media is its independently vibrating wire technology. It increases product throughput over traditional rigid polyurethane and rubber panels by creating more screening action and eliminating blinding, pegging and clogging.
Flex-Mat 3 Modular panels install easily using the same fastening systems as traditional polyurethane and rubber panels and are available in both stainless steel and Major Wire’s proprietary OptimumWire®. Wire diameters range from 0.025 inches to 3/8 inches (0.6 mm to 9.5 mm). Snap- and step-types are available in 1-foot x 2-foot sizes, while the pin- and grooved-types are available in both 1-foot x 1-foot and 1-foot x 2-foot sizes.
Both Tensioned and Modular Flex-Mat 3 are ideal screening solutions in many applications, including aggregate, mining, sand & gravel, aglime, recycled concrete and asphalt, C&D recycle, coal, slag, talc, top soil, salt, mulch, industrial minerals and green waste.
Celebrating more than 125 years in business, Major Wire Industries Limited designs, manufactures and markets screening solutions, including Flex-Mat® 3 High-Performance, Self-Cleaning Screen Media in Tensioned and Modular versions, OptimumWire® and stainless steel woven wire cloth for the quarry, mining, recycling and industrial markets. Major Wire is ISO 9001:2008 registered.
