PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Hygienic High-Flow Non-Clogging Wedge Wire Screens for Food Processing

Apollo Wedge Wire Screens are widely used across the global food processing industry for precise solid–liquid separation, hygienic filtration, dewatering, and screening. Manufactured from food-grade stainless steel with accurately controlled slot openings, wedge wire screens offer superior hygiene, high flow capacity, resistance to clogging, and long service life under continuous operation and rigorous CIP cleaning.

Their V-profile wire construction creates a self-cleaning effect that prevents particle lodging, making them ideal for food applications where product purity, yield recovery, and uptime are critical.
