Recently, OQITOP completed a customized batch of circular titanium mesh filters for a university customer in Munich, Germany.
The customer is conducting a series of laboratory filtration experiments and required titanium mesh discs with multiple mesh counts and different pore sizes. Instead of using only one mesh specification, several grades were prepared so that the research team could compare filtration performance under different experimental conditions.
All titanium meshes were cut into customized circular shapes according to the customer’s required dimensions and prepared for direct use in their laboratory filtration devices.
Project Overview
Product: Circular Titanium Wire Mesh
Material: Titanium
Shape: Customized Circular Discs
Mesh Range: 10–350 Mesh
애플리케이션: Laboratory Filtration and Research
Customer: University Research Project in Munich, Germany
Customization: Mesh Count, Wire Diameter, Aperture and Circular Size
The finished products included both relatively coarse titanium mesh and very fine titanium mesh, giving the customer a wide range of filtration options for testing and comparison.
Titanium Mesh Specifications
Different mesh counts provide different wire diameters and mesh openings. Lower mesh numbers generally provide larger openings and higher permeability, while higher mesh numbers provide smaller openings for finer filtration.
The specifications supplied or available for this type of project include:
| Mesh Count | Wire Diameter | Mesh Opening |
|---|---|---|
| 10 Mesh | 0.50 mm | 2.00 mm |
| 20 Mesh | 0.35 mm | 0.95 mm |
| 30 Mesh | 0.15 mm | 0.70 mm |
| 30 Mesh – Heavy | 0.35 mm | 0.48 mm |
| 40 Mesh | 0.15 mm | 0.50 mm |
| 50 Mesh | 0.15 mm | 0.35 mm |
| 60 Mesh | 0.12 mm | 0.30 mm |
| 60 Mesh – Heavy | 0.25 mm | 0.17 mm |
| 80 Mesh | 0.10 mm | 0.20 mm |
| 80 Mesh – Heavy | 0.18 mm | 0.14 mm |
| 100 Mesh | 0.10 mm | 0.154 mm |
| 100 Mesh – Heavy | 0.15 mm | 0.10 mm |
| 120 Mesh | 0.06 mm | 0.15 mm |
| 150 Mesh | 0.06 mm | 0.10 mm |
| 180 Mesh | 0.06 mm | 0.08 mm |
| 200 Mesh | 0.05 mm | 0.077 mm |
| 250 Mesh | 0.045 mm | 0.0566 mm |
| 300 Mesh | 0.035 mm | 0.049 mm |
| 350 Mesh | 0.030 mm | 0.042 mm |
Specifications may be adjusted according to actual production requirements and customer drawings.
Why Use Different Mesh Counts for Filtration Experiments?
For laboratory research, one filtration specification is not always sufficient.
Changing the mesh count changes the effective opening of the titanium mesh and therefore affects the passage of particles, liquids, gases or other experimental media.
For example, coarse meshes such as 10, 20 or 30 mesh provide relatively large openings and higher flow capacity. They can be useful for preliminary separation or experiments requiring low flow resistance.
Medium specifications such as 40–100 mesh provide a balance between filtration accuracy and permeability.
Fine titanium meshes such as 150–350 mesh have much smaller openings and are more suitable for experiments requiring finer particle retention or more precise filtration.
By preparing multiple mesh specifications, the university research team can compare filtration efficiency, flow characteristics and experimental performance under different conditions.
Customized Circular Cutting
Standard titanium woven mesh is usually supplied in sheets or rolls. For this project, however, the customer required finished circular mesh discs that could be directly installed in their laboratory filtration equipment.
Each mesh was therefore cut according to the required circular dimensions.
For research applications, we can customize:
- Circular titanium mesh discs
- Different diameters
- Different mesh counts
- Different wire diameters
- Different apertures
- Single-layer or multi-layer mesh combinations
- Small quantities for laboratory testing
- Larger quantities for repeated experiments
Customers can also provide drawings or equipment dimensions, allowing us to prepare the mesh according to the actual filtration holder or experimental device.
Titanium Mesh for Laboratory Filtration
Titanium mesh is widely considered for demanding research environments because it combines a lightweight structure with good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance.
Depending on the experimental medium and operating conditions, titanium mesh can be used in applications such as:
- Laboratory filtration
- Particle separation
- Liquid filtration
- Gas filtration
- Electrochemical experiments
- Electrode support
- Water treatment research
- Chemical research equipment
- Battery and energy research
- Customized scientific instruments
The correct mesh count and material specification should always be selected according to the actual experimental conditions.
Supporting Customized University Research Projects
University and laboratory projects often require specifications that are very different from standard industrial products.
Researchers may need only a small number of samples, but require many different mesh counts, pore sizes or dimensions for comparison.
OQITOP supports this type of customized research requirement. We can prepare multiple specifications in one project, allowing researchers to test different materials and filtration structures without being limited to a single standard mesh.
In addition to titanium mesh, we can also provide customized nickel mesh, copper mesh, stainless steel mesh, silver mesh, molybdenum mesh and tungsten mesh for research and industrial applications.
Need Custom Titanium Mesh for Your Experiment?
If your filtration or research project requires a special titanium mesh, please send us your requirements, including:
Mesh Count + Wire Diameter + Aperture + Diameter/Size + Quantity + Application
If you already have a drawing or filtration holder dimensions, you can also send them directly to us for evaluation.
