Sell Expanded Metal Mesh
Expande metal also known as expanded mesh is one of the main building materials in the construction sector. The raw material of the product is cut and expanded with the help of special devices. Expanded metal can be produced from different materials, such as steel, aluminum, galvanized and copper. Patterns and sizes of eye ranges can be selected according to demand and needs. This product is reliable for exterior facade applications and space design.
Expande metal mesh is a plate or sheet that is cut from sheet metal and stretched into a mesh with diamond-shaped cavities by stretching the metal, but it can also be made in many other patterns. The open area ratio in the expanded metal pattern will determine the amount of space for air, water and light to pass through and will vary according to the intended application.
What are the Characteristics of Expanded Metal Mesh ?
Expanded metal mesh is a strong, low-maintenance, flexible and moldable material. Due to its safe structure, it is durable and offers strong impact resistance. Provides sound insulation. In addition, it is designed intact without welding or adding and provides effective durability. Expanded metal is also easy to assemble at its center of gravity due to its light weight in terms of dimensions.
Expanded Metal Mesh Application
Expanded metal has a very wide range of uses, although it is commonly used in architecture today. The biggest advantage of perforated sheet is that it is economical and durable. Other expanded metal applications are:
- Food industry
- Chemical Industry
- Pharmaceutical industry
- Power Plant
- Ship Construction
- Elevator Protection
and other applications.
What are the Benefits of Using Expanded Metal Mesh
There are many advantages of using expande metal that we produce, namely:
1. Cost-effective, small amounts of metal can be stretched into large pieces.
2. Efficient Processing: Very little waste is generated when producing and processing this expande metal.
3. Good conductor, because of the expanded metal braid into a single unit, it can be an excellent conductor of electricity, magnetic flux and heat.
4. Protective reinforcement, expanded metal can be combined with glass, concrete and other materials for greater strength.
5. High strength, expanded metal supports weight and withstands stress better than woven metal or welded joints.
6. Low weight, expanded metal is lighter than conventional sheet metal.
7. Allows circulation, allowing air and light to move freely.
8. Acoustic properties, expanded metal is specially developed, which can improve acoustics and provide sound insulation.
How is Expanded Metal Mesh Made ?
Trio Jaya Steel manufactures expanded metal mesh with an expanding machine that converts solid sheet metal and rolls into expanded metal mesh. The expanding machine is equipped with a pattern setting bar for meshes.
As the metal passes through the expansion machine, it is cut and stretched simultaneously using a pressure-stretching and cutting process. The pattern created by the blades allows the metal to stretch, which creates a smooth hole.
To ensure a smooth pattern, the expander is programmed or manually operated when the metal is fed. The finished metal mesh is then rolled into rolls or cut into sheets.
Expanded Metal Mesh Types
The types of expande metal mesh we produce are:
1. Standard Expanded Metal Mesh
Standard expanded metal is very flexible and economical. Standard types of expanded metal mesh are available in various sizes and opening sizes. Usually used to provide a hard, raised, and non-slip surface. The strands and ties on standard expande metal, are set at the right angle to provide extra strength and rigidity while allowing for maximum air circulation.
2. Flattened Expanded Metal Mesh
The falttened type expanded metal is produced by cold rolled expanded metal to flatten it. It is chosen when a smooth surface is required. The flattening process generally extends the sheet length by 5%.
3. Hexagonal Expanded Metal Mesh
Hexagonal expanded metal mesh has hexagonal shaped openings instead of regular diamond ones. Its hexagonal shape gives the metal extra strength while allowing the passage of air, light, heat, sound and fluids. Hexagonal openings are preferred over diamond openings when the metal is highly expanded.
4. Architectural Expanded Metal Mesh
This expanded metal type has a diamond pattern with additional architectural features. The result is a design that combines good aesthetics, increased security and privacy, and increased ventilation. Suitable for functional and decorative purposes or a combination of both.
5. Micro Expanded Metal Mesh
This type of expanded metal has a small opening in the light metal. Apertures can be standard, flattened, hexagonal and square. This type of expanded metal is often used in filters.
