The ASTM E11 and ISO 3310-1 Standards for Test Sieves have
rules for the identification of Test Sieves.
Both Standards dictate that all test sieves must be marked
with the nominal aperture size, the standard with which it complies, the name of
the supplier, and have a unique serial number.
There are various ways to label test sieves – laser etching,
markers, colour coding and engraving being the most common.
Test sieves are typically marked for identification using a variety of methods.
The most common method is to mark the sieve with a label that indicates the mesh
size or opening size of the sieve. This label is often placed on the top or
bottom of the sieve frame and may include additional information such as the
manufacturer, serial number, and date of manufacture. This label can be etched
using laser, which ensures a long-lasting label, which will last for the entire
useful life of the test sieve.
Another common method for marking test sieves is to use a permanent marker or
engraving tool to mark the frame directly. This method can be used to indicate
the mesh size or opening size as well as any other relevant information about
the sieve.
Some manufacturers may also use colour coding to identify test sieves. For
example, sieves with a certain mesh size may be color-coded with a specific
colour to make them easier to identify.
Finally, some test sieves may be marked with a barcode or other type of
identification code that can be scanned or read by a computer system to identify
the sieve and its characteristics. This method is often used in automated
testing systems to streamline the testing process.
