Sanitary Wedge Wire Screens for the Food & Beverage Industry
In the food and beverage industry, maintaining strict hygiene standards while maximizing production yield is a constant challenge. The screens and filters used in processing directly impact product quality, clarity, and safety. Johnsonslot provides a comprehensive range of premium food grade wedge wire screen solutions, specifically engineered to meet the stringent demands of modern sanitary processing.
We understand that contamination is not an option. That is why our food industry components are manufactured from certified Stainless Steel 304 or 316L and utilize advanced, crevice-free welding techniques to prevent bacterial growth. Whether you are extracting juice, refining sugar, or brewing beer, Johnsonslot ensures that your filtration system is compliant, efficient, and durable.
Our Core Food & Beverage Applications
Juice and Puree Extraction: Our wedge wire sieve bend screens (also known as Paraglide screens) are the industry standard for the primary dewatering of fruits and vegetables. The continuous, outwardly enlarging slot geometry allows for maximum juice yield and clarity, significantly improving the efficiency of juice extraction lines.
Sugar Milling and Refining: We manufacture heavy-duty wedge wire panels for mud filters and precision-balanced centrifuge baskets. These components are built to withstand high abrasion and mechanical stress while maintaining exact slot opening tolerances to minimize sugar loss and ensure uniform crystal retention.
Brewing and Distilling: Johnsonslot provides custom Lauter Tun screens (false bottoms) for the brewing industry. The precise V-wire profile ensures a consistent and even flow of wort during the lautering process, reducing channeling and improving extract efficiency.
Dairy Processing: We offer specialized inline filter elements for CIP (Clean-in-Place) systems, designed for easy sterilization and robust chemical resistance.
The Johnsonslot Sanitary Advantage
Unlike woven wire mesh, which can trap particles and become impossible to clean, the smooth, smooth surface of a V-wire screen allows for effective backwashing and manual cleaning. By combining our superior V-wire geometry with high-purity materials, we deliver filtration solutions that are inherently non-clogging and fully hygienic. This translates to fewer production stoppages and a significantly longer service life.
Furthermore, our engineering team ensures that every component is designed with food safety in mind, prioritizing easy-to-clean structures and FDA-compliant material certifications. By optimizing the open area calculation of each screen, we balance structural strength with maximum hydraulic throughput, helping you achieve your production goals without compromising on safety.
