METHOD FOR FORMING SEAM IN WIRE WEAVE, AND WIRE WEAVE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for forming a seam in a wire weave, and to a wire weave. According to the method, the seam in a wire weave is made by weaving at least two separate superimposed weaves, i.e. a seam weave (3a) and an auxiliary weave (3b), over a distance at both edges of the wire weave. A folded part (5) is formed in the seam weave (3a), totally lacking threads in the transverse direction of the wire weave. The seam weave (3a) is folded double and fastened by stitches. Both ends of the wire weave further comprise a seam structure made in the above described manner. The seam structure of the invention allows the periphery of a drum filter to be provided with an endless filter wire made of a plurality of separate wire weaves.
