Optimized dutch weave (ODW): high permeability
Optimized dutch weave
Optimized plain dutch weave is a further development of plain dutch weave for ultrafine filtration.
It is made up of a small number of thick warp wires and many thin weft wires. Due to the larger number of fine weft wires, these are interlocked during the production process. The result: slit-like openings with very small pore sizes (small edge length), which ensure a high level of permeability. Like plain dutch weave, optimized plain dutch weave offer a particularly high mechanical load-bearing capacity. One of the most frequent applications for this product is the filtration of fresh water and sewage.
