What is Multi-layer Sintered Metal Mesh Filters?
A multi-layer sintered metal mesh filter is a metallic filter created by stacking multiple layers of metal fiber (metal mesh) and sintering them at high temperatures. Through sintering technology, the metal meshes are bonded together, resulting in a filter with high filtration precision and strength. These filters are employed across various industries, showcasing excellent durability and corrosion resistance.
