According to different ways of fabrication ,mainly wire mesh can be divided into two types, welded wire mesh and woven wire mesh , woven wire mesh apertures and wires can be various ,thousands of specs ,Compared to woven type , welded type has it's own advantages, It has bigger apertures (openings) ,The wires welded at each intersection giving the mesh strength and the capability of maintaining its integrity under stress, in other words , it is firm, steady ! it is widely used in different construction projects , since it is cheaper and quicker fabricated , also easy cut and shape forming ,welded mesh in stainless steel is free of corrosion ,can survival very long time in acid ,hot ,wet situation, looks shining after many years use.
In previously , our welding machines made to Inch system , that means the mesh(wire center distance) can be only 1/4" ,3/8" ,1/2" ,5/8",3/4",7/8", 1inch ,2inch , However ,As a result of CNC technology widely used in wire mesh industry , computer controls the feeding distance ,especially for wire panel / sheets any pitch is available , such like 20mm ,22mm, 40mm .....
