Woven nickel wire mesh is highly valued for its high corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, and high-temperature resistance. Due to its versatility, nickel mesh is widely used in various industrial fields, such as hydrogen production, aerospace, electronics, and chemical processing. Precise nickel mesh production is necessary to ensure the quality of woven nickel mesh meets the criteria of different industries. So how is woven nickel wire mesh produced?
If you want to learn more, please visit our website Ruiyun.
The first step of nickel wire mesh production is to select proper nickel wires for specific industries. According to the nickel purity contained in the raw material, nickel wires are divided into different grades. Common high purity nickel wires include Ni201 wires and Ni200 wires with minimum nickel purity of 99.9% and 99.6% respectively. They are usually applied in hydrogen production industry.
Additionally, nickel wires always come in different wire diameters ranging from 0.03mm to 0.5mm. And the wire thickness may bring effect to the final use. Therefore, it’s crucial to confirm the wire diameters you need before requiring nickel wire meshes.
The next step after nickel wire selection is wire drawing. In this process, the rolled nickel wires are fed into a wire drawing machine and pulled through a series of dies to reduce their diameter. This process is essential as it helps to increase the tensile strength of wires to make them suitable for mesh weaving.
When the nickel wires are drawn into the desired diameter, they are ready to be used for mesh weaving. Nickel wires lay in different directions are fed into a loom and they are interlaced in a certain weave pattern to present different mesh structure. Common weave patterns include plain and twill weave. Different weaving methods may affect mesh strength and surface smoothness slightly.
Subject to specific request for practical application, woven nickel wire meshes may undergo extra surface treatment to enhance its performance. This may include electroplating with other metals in certain ratios, such as 50% aluminium + 50% nickel, 20% aluminium + 80% nickel, or 80% aluminium + 20% nickel. The additional coating will help to increase corrosion resistance of nickel meshes and promise a better performance in the application.
Clients always demand nickel meshes in different sizes and shapes to fit their equipment. Once the surface treatment is complete, nickel meshes are cut into the desired shapes and sizes using dedicated cutting tools. The edges of the mesh are then finished to remove any sharp burrs or rough edges, ensuring a smooth and uniform appearance.
To recap, woven nickel wire mesh production is a complicated process that involves nickel wires selection, wire drawing, mesh weaving, annealing, surface treatment, mesh cutting and finishing. Each step is crucial and should be seriously treated to acquire high-quality nickel meshes that meet needs of different industrial applications.
NHGT has been devoting itself to manufacturing and supplying high-purity nickel meshes for ages.
