Abstract: A plate-shaped filter element made from several wire cloth layers and having at least one layer in the form of a filter cloth is designed to allow particles of a certain size can be filtered out from a filterable material, whereby, in particular, particles can be filtered out from a fluid, an emulsion or the like. The filter element according to the invention is configured such that at least the layer forming the filter cloth is provided with spaced-apart alternating crossovers at an angle to the warp and weft threads. The alternating crossovers extend in a zigzag whereby each straight section extends across a same number of warp threads. The alternating crossovers extend from the edges which are parallel to and spaced from the warp wires. The filter element according to the invention is particularly suitable for filtering of emulsions.

Abstract: A cloth comprising a woven wire cloth covering an extended cloth area wherein said wire cloth has a uniform, low-reflective surface in that it consists of oxidized filaments, and a method for manufacturing a cloth.

Abstract: A sieve tray for a sieve device that includes at least one sieve netting. The sieve netting includes wire netting having warp and weft wires mutually connected in a weave. The weave has mutually spaced alternating crossings extending diagonally with respect to the warp and weft wires.
