It is an undeniable fact that perforated metals are used in almost every type of industry due to their flexibility, lightweight and excellent shielding performance. Heanjia Super-Metals is a highly experienced production resource for perforation of a wide range of materials with superior efficiency. If you are a buyer, you are familiar of the worth of hole solutions for the several crucial design issues. Round holes, square holes, rectangular, triangular, slotted, decorative patterns etc are the various possible shapes. In order to produce accurate and high efficiency holes, a special process is followed that involves state-of-art machinery, tools and specialized technology and experience. We have hundreds of perforated presses using which we are able to perforate thousands of various hole patterns.
Additionally, Heanjia also possess wide stocks of standard sheets and hole designs that are ready for quick delivery. Advanced high speed and automatically monitored presses can punch holes as large as up to 30,000 per minute that are punched with extensive accuracy, hole designs, specified blank areas and required margins.
Perforated Metals Industrial Use
The perforated metals provide the multitude of solutions for the design problems in the building and architecture applications. They are significant for sound reduction, microwave and EMI/ RFI shielding, filtration and distillation of air, water and gas. In this post we have briefly described their significance in the various industries in which they are used on the vast rate.
Other industries- aircrafts, marine, lighting, petrochemical, mining and processing, paper production and pollution control.
Perforated Sheets offer excellent EMI shielding performance. Following tables show their shielding value and percentage from which it is evident they are fit for this application.
