Custom Filtration Screens

Custom Filtration Screens Engineered for Your Process

ActionLaser’s approach to custom filtration has been perfected over 35 years of working with customers around the world. No two customers or processes behave the same, and we have seen how quickly a standard screen can reach its limits when accuracy becomes critical or conditions shift. Filtration needs to be designed with a real understanding of how the operation runs, not shaped around the constraints of an off-the-shelf part.

Our custom filtration screens are built with that understanding at their core. Every screen is engineered to suit the exact requirements of the application, from aperture geometry to material thickness and the balance between strength and open area. With laser-drilled accuracy down to sub 35 microns, we help operators maintain clarity, stable flow and consistent product quality in environments where small variations can influence the entire line.

When a filtration system is tailored to the process, everything downstream becomes more predictable and easier to control. A custom screen provides a stronger, more reliable foundation for production, supporting higher output, steadier performance and long-term operational confidence.

There is no increase in price for custom screens. Every ActionLaser laser-drilled screen is drilled one hole or slot at a time. Every screen we drill is custom. Discuss with us your exact application requirement for a custom screen for your process.

Designed for When Standard Filtration Falls Short

Our filtration systems are built for operations where precision is critical. In many plants, processes or applications a standard screen can only perform for so long before accuracy slips, flow becomes harder to manage and equipment begins to feel the strain. When that happens, the process needs more than a simple replacement. It needs a filtration solution that reflects the realities of the operation and is engineered to stay accurate over time.

Our custom systems are tailored to the exact requirements of each process. By refining aperture size, spacing, percentage Open Area and screen thickness to match real production conditions, we help deliver the consistency and control needed in high-performance environments. In sugar processing, our slot configurations have supported cleaner separation and more reliable purity.

In food and beverage lines precisely shaped apertures have helped maintain steady flow and more uniform output. Across continuous systems, tailored geometry has supported longer operating cycles and reduced the need for intervention.
What sets our solutions apart is how well they hold their geometry. Our screens are engineered to last, even in abrasive, high-load or high-vibration environments. Their durability supports better performance across the line and gives operators a filtration system they can depend on.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are ActionLaser’s custom filtration screens engineered to suit specific applcations industrial processes?
ActionLaser designs custom filtration screens by analysing how each process operates, including flow behaviour, load conditions and separation requirements. Aperture geometry, material thickness and open area are engineered to suit those specific conditions. Filtration remains accurate as operating conditions change. The result is more predictable performance across the entire production line resulting in increased yields.
When should an operation consider a custom filtration system instead of a standard screen?
A custom filtration screen is necessary when standard screens lose accuracy, restrict flow or require frequent intervention. This often occurs in high-precision, abrasive or continuous processes where small variations impact yield or quality. Custom screens are designed to hold their geometry over time, reducing drift and extending service life. They provide a stronger foundation when reliability becomes critical.
What industries or applications use ActionLaser’s custom filtration screens?
ActionLaser supplies custom filtration screens to various industries, including sugar processing, food and beverage production, plastics recycling, water and wastewater treatment, mining, and industrial processing. Each solution is tailored to the specific behaviour of the material and process involved.
How does laser-drilled accuracy down to sub-35 microns improve filtration performance?
Laser drilling allows precise control over aperture size, spacing and geometry, achieving accuracy down to sub-35 microns where required. This level of control supports greater capture of small particles, giving enhanced product yield or, removing adverse particels from your filtrate. This improves overall process control and product consistency.
Can ActionLaser design custom filtration screen to integrate with existing equipment?
Yes. ActionLaser designs custom filtration screens to integrate with existing equipment without requiring major modifications. Laser drilled screens can be manufactured in various shapes and configurations to suit OEM designs or retrofit applications.
