FILTERING elements

With our many years of experience in the processing of metal meshes and micro-expanded metal, we produce value-added finished products that conform to your design. We actively support the design and creation of the necessary equipment for prototyping, performing sampling and subjecting prototypes to rigorous quality and functionality tests to verify their performance. This process ensures efficient mass production that meets the required standards.
Fratelli Mariani finished products, whether made from metal mesh or expanded metal sheet, feature specific characteristics that translate into many application advantages.
Finished products with metal mesh filters, characterized by a base product created from an interweaving of warp and weft wires, guarantee:
- Precision
- Flexibility
- Permeability
- Filtration efficiency starting from 2 Microns
Finished products made from expanded metal sheet, characterized by a base product which is a metal mesh produced by cold plastic deformation of metals without generating waste, guarantee:
- A monolithic structure
- Consistency
- Shape stability
- Filtration efficiency starting from 100 Microns
These properties make our finished products and filtration elements extremely versatile and reliable for multiple industrial applications.
Automotive Sector
Finished products and filtration elements in metal mesh and expanded sheet are widely used in the automotive sector. Some examples include:
- Air filters
- Oil filters
- Decorative grilles
- Protectors
- Fuel filters
- Oil pick-up filters
The ongoing commitment to improving performance and increasing efficiency of vehicles leads to filtration solutions that are increasingly complex, both for the intake of air, oil, and fuel, as well as for exhaust gas and other outlet filters. A possible area of use also includes decoration and protection with grilles.
Energy Sector
Finished products in metal mesh and expanded sheet are also used successfully in the energy sector, particularly in:
- Screens
- Degassers
- Catalysts
- Micro batteries
- Batteries
The evolution in sectors and applications aimed at preventing energy loss, ensuring safety, and finding alternative sources demands new technologies, in which metal mesh plays a fundamental role. As a result, shielding, protection, and catalysts with metal support structures are becoming increasingly common.
Household Appliances Sector
In the field of household appliances, fluid filters in metal mesh and expanded sheet ensure the operation and safety of various devices, including:
- Air filters
- Water mixers
- Aerators
- Dishwashers
- Coffee machines
- Water inlet filters
The need to ensure the use of ever-cleaner liquids and air must cope with the increasing pollution of sources. Filtration becomes an essential requirement for the proper functioning of appliances, but above all, for our health.
Other Applications of Filtration Elements:
Our filtration elements in metal mesh and expanded sheet are used in many other fields, including:
- Irrigation
- Air compressors
- Refrigeration
- Valves
- Plastic extrusion
Wherever there is a need for a metal structure that filters an incoming and outgoing element, our metal mesh filters are the precise, durable, and highly customizable solution to ensure safety and performance according to the highest standards.
Thanks to the high-precision work carried out in-house, we can configure filtration elements in metal mesh to a design, according to your specific needs and the best characteristics to meet them, using processes such as punching, calendaring, stamping, surface treatments, heat treatments, and much more.
