Since 1970 Martin Kurz & Co., Inc. has been manufacturing high quality diffusion-bonded specialty materials such as Dynapore® sintered wire mesh laminates, porous powder metals, and Foil-Mesh™ laminates. MKI offers a wide range of standard materials for filtration and fluidization. MKI also offers SWM™ filter elements with a variety of end-fitting configurations, and filtration ratings from 2 to 100 microns.

DYNAPORE® Porous Metal Products

MKI's Dynapore® diffusion-bonded products comprise porous metals such as sintered wire mesh, multi-layer mesh laminates, powder metal, and non-woven fiber metal felt; as well as non-porous structures such as our Foil-Mesh™ materials, or custom laminates of metal foils with reticulated metal foams.

Dynapore® products are available as-produced in standard size sheets, or fabricated into cylinders, cones or other shapes with welded fittings, flanges, or connectors. For certain applications such as filtration or fluidization, standard formulations have been developed with specific uniform pore sizes or controlled permeability.

DYNAPORE® Filter Plate Laminates...The Ideal Filtration Media
TWM™, BWM™, and "Perf Plate" filtration media are an extremely useful class of diffusion-bonded laminates that feature substantial mechanical strength and precise filtration characteristics. These materials are typically used in filter plate assemblies for both chemical and pharmaceutical filtration

MPP™ "Micro-Perforated Plate"
The low cost alternative to expensive photo-etched media.

DYNAPORE® Fluidizing Media for Bulk Powder Handling and Processing
The Ideal Choice for Fluidized Material Handling

LFM™, HFM™, and PCM™ controlled permeability media is the superior choice for your fluidized material handling needs. Utilizing precision diffusion-bonding (sintering) technology,

LWD™ Stainless Steel Filter Discs
Dynapore® porous metal laminates are constructed of one or more layers of carefully selected stainless steel wire mesh, laminated by precision sintering (diffusion bonding) and calendering. Sintering utilizes molecular diffusion to produce homogeneous metal bonds at each point of metal contact, including the wire crossover points within individual layers, as well as the contact points between each layer. The resultant monolithic structure is permanently bonded and has highly uniform porosity.

SWM™ Sintered Wire Mesh Filter Elements
SWM™ filters were developed to replace poorly performing sintered porous metal, wedge-wire, string wound and other types of cartridges. In many instances, flow rates may be dramatically improved without compromising filtration efficiency. In other instances, frequency of downtime for element cleaning and replacement may be sharply reduced, resulting in savings which can far outweigh initial retrofit costs.

SPM™ Maximum Performance Sintered Porous Metals
MKI produces media equivalent to conventional pre-compressed porous metals, but with a proprietary compaction procedure which does not require the use of any binders whatsoever. Our "C"-Series porous metals are identical to industry standard materials, including 40, 20, 10, 5, 2, 1, 0.5 and 0.2 micron grades, but they are produced without any risk of carburization or susceptibility to intergranular attack. If you simply want a direct exact replacement of an existing conventional medium, our "C"-Series will do the job!

SFM™ Sintered Non-Woven Fiber Metal Felt
Superior Quality SFM™ Sintered Fiber Metal, The Ideal Choice for Depth Filtration

MKI's SFM™ sintered non-woven fiber metal felts are ideal for applications requiring depth media. While some filtration systems may employ periodic onstream backwashing to remove contaminant buildup, the demands of other applications require maximum on stream life between cleanings. This is particularly true in the filtration of viscous molten plastics, from monomers to polymers, where backwash is impractical and downtime very costly. Our SFM™ media are the classic choice for pleated tubular polymer candle filters and high pressure leaf discs.

FUEL CELLS
Dynapore® porous metal laminates have found successful application in the emerging fuel cell technology market in the thermal management, flow distribution, membrane support and current collection components of the fuel cell stack. Dynapore® materials are an attractive alternative to traditional fuel cell stack materials due to Dynapore®'s unique set of properties.
