crimp
A smooth contoured indentation formed into wire providing a locking arrangement for
perpendicular wires to stabilize the hole size and shape. |

crown
An arc placed in woven wire mesh (screen cloth) to facilitate tensioning across a
crowned deck. |
|
|
|
crown bar cover
A protective sleeve of rubber or polyurethane, contoured to the shape of a vibrating
screen decks support rails (stringers) on the bottom surface and provided with a
"crown" shape on the top surface to prevent direct contact between the screen
and the supporting surface and help facilitate tensioning of the wire cloth.
Crown bar cover is also referred to as "bucker-up strips", "buffer
strips", "c-b-c", "channel cover" and "channel rubber".

|
|
cut-back
Edge preparation (hook strip) that is shorter than the screen cloth to allow a
lap-joint of the screen cloth panel in conjunction with a butt-joint of the edge
preparation, thus preventing leakage between screen panel sections. |

dewatering
Separation of solids from liquids in which the solids are retained on the screen
surface while the liquids pass through the screen (wire mesh or wire cloth) surface. |

double crown
Two arcs placed in a screen panel to conform with double contoured crown rails on a
vibrating screen deck, allowing for fastening (tie-down) in the center of the screen
section. |

|
double shoot
Frequently used in "slotted openings" to increase wire cloth strength and
durability. Two shoot wires are placed in adjacent crimps on each end of the long slot.
Also referred to as "double bar", "double shot", or "double
shute". |
|
|
|
double weave
Wire cloth with equal depth crimps in both warp and shute wires, thus locking the wires
in position. Also referred to as "double crimp", "over and under" or
"regular crimp". |
