What are perforated plates and what are their main uses?

Perforated plates are metal sheets with punched holes of various shapes and sizes. They serve milling, filtration, separation, and architectural functions. Kentech supplies these plates nationwide for industries like food processing, mining, and construction.

Perforated plates come in stainless steel 304, 316, and carbon steel. Apertures start from 0.3mm diameter. You can order them flat or rolled for hammer mills, centrifugals, and diffuser plates.
