Bead Mill Screens

During the pigment milling process, slurry containing pigments and dispersants is mixed and ground using ceramic or glass beads inside the bead mill chamber. The wedge wire filtration screen, installed at the slurry outlet, allows only the finely ground pigment slurry to pass through, while retaining the beads.

Model

Multitech Bead Mill Pigment Filtration Screens
  • Application: Colour pigment slurry filtration in bead mills
  • Slot Openings: 0.2 mm to 0.4 mm (standard)
  • Material of Construction (MOC): SS 316L (standard)
  • Surface Finish: Hard chromed for enhanced wear resistance
  • Screen Shape: Flat panel or curved wedge wire screen based on mill design
  • Custom Fitments: Clamp-type or bolted designs depending on bead mill model

Use

Pigment Filtration Screens are used in high-speed bead mills and sand mills within the paint, pigment, ink, and coating industries. Their role is to filter the fine pigment slurry during milling, ensuring:
- Retention of grinding media (beads)
- Consistent particle size distribution
- Smooth pigment dispersion and reduced contamination

Description

The V-shaped wedge wire design prevents clogging and ensures continuous filtration under high-speed, abrasive conditions. The hard chrome plating provides superior surface hardness, drastically extending screen life even in chemically aggressive and highly abrasive pigment systems.

Key Advantages

  • Precision filtration ensures uniform pigment particle size
  • Superior wear resistance with hard-chrome plated surface
  • Non-clogging design for high-speed bead mill environments
  • Minimized downtime with durable, long-life screens
  • Custom-fit designs for all leading bead and sand mill brands
  • Corrosion-resistant SS 316L construction ideal for chemical applications
