Tanis NYLON SCREENS: Flexible Power in Precision Sieving
In seed, grain, and industrial product processing lines, the success of sieving systems depends not only on the machine but also on the screen structure, hole precision, and surface properties. Traditional metal screens have limited tolerance, leading to performance drops, high losses, and product damage in sensitive classification applications.
Tanis Nylon Screens set a new standard for modern separation technology with high strength, smooth surfaces, flexibility, and micron-level precision. Used in agriculture, food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries, these screens enhance product quality while reducing operational costs.
Advantages Over Traditional Metal Screens
-
Lightweight & Flexible: Absorbs impacts without deforming.
-
Product-Friendly Surface: Minimizes embryo damage in fragile seeds.
-
Precision Holes: Can be manufactured down to 50 microns (0.05 mm).
-
Corrosion Resistant: No rust or moisture-induced deterioration.
-
Easy Cleaning: Air, water, or brushes; antistatic coating prevents dust adhesion.
-
Food-Grade Compliance: Uses FDA/EU-approved pigments and polymers.
Working Principle: Micron-Scale Precision Sieving
-
High-Strength Monofilament: Made of PA6 or PA66 nylon.
-
Weave Options: Plain weave or twill.
-
Vibratory Systems: Products move across the vibrating screen; particles fitting the openings pass through.
-
Accurate Calibration: Micron-level hole precision ensures exact size separation.
-
Product-Friendly Separation: Smooth nylon surface prevents seed coat damage.
This ensures high classification accuracy with minimal product loss.
