Elcon - Custom Screens/Filters
Elcon produces photochemically etched mesh screens for use in a wide range of applications, from medical devices and particle filters to EMI/RFI shields, and current collectors. We customize products based on several factors, including material type, material thickness, and hole size, shape and spacing. Holes are produced in a variety of geometries and are tailored to meet the unique needs of your project. Chemical etching of screens is a fast and inexpensive manufacturing method, with minimal tooling required for new or revised designs. Scaling production from prototypes to large volumes is quick and easy and does not require new tooling.
Mesh screens are a strong, durable, and long-lasting solution across many different industries, offering tight tolerances, intricate features, and dimensional stability. Using our photochemical machining process to produce screens results in higher-quality parts that clean easily, are more efficient, and burr- & stress-free compared to woven wire mesh, laser cut, or stamped screens.
Photochemically etched screens are commonly made from metals such as stainless steel, titanium, copper, and nickel. For more information on designing screens, please review Elcon’s Design Guidelines.
