Different manufacturers will produce shaker screen with various screen configuration. Some will put screen with rectangular holes and square hole screen, some will put all layers screen with square holes, also some put all layers wire mesh with rectangular hole

Why so many different configuration?

When we face different shale shaker, different drilling mud or well drilling condition, the different shaker screen configuration will provide user different efficiency and function. For example, the rectangular hole will give us more effective filtration area so lead higher efficiency

If the screen with thicker wire than same mesh screen, user will definitely have a longer life shaker screen. Even some manufacturer will put 4 layers wire mesh together for more durable and anti-abrasion.
