3) Aquaculture: cages net, rabbit cage, fox cage aquaculture.

It is computer controlled and is equipped with “welding experts” programs, and the welding parameter is displayed by LED screen and digitally stored. Moreover, the welding process is done by high and low level pressure accordingly in case of sudden crush of welding head and bad work piece.

Is the winter of Wire and Mesh industry coming for China?

Even though the 12th Five-Year Plan put emphasis on the development of energy conservation, new energy and other industries, the upstream spare parts manufacture of these industries are optimistic. Companies expect state more support. At the same time, benefit that other types of parts manufacturers could obtain from the plan remains to be seen.

Although the wire machine machinery manufacturing enterprises in China in recent years are rapid developed due to the growing market demand, the profit is limited in the whole industry chain. 

According to industry sources, China's CNC wire machine enterprises take the production mode of purchasing spare parts from foreign manufacturers and for assembly, thus the sales price of complete machine is very low in domestic market, and therefore lead to the profits of Chinese enterprises much lower than foreign competitors. This situation tells us that we must strengthen the upstream industry of wire mesh machine manufacturing, among which the basic spar parts industry should be focused attention. 

As for research and development ability, recently companies mainly depend on their own investment in R & D, getting little support from the state. Many wire mesh machine companied are still waiting for a refined policy and specific implementation, they are expecting revive plans to be implemented.

A spare part is usually small, but often requires high technical level; our companies can not produce those components, so we must rely on imports. Some of China's basic components, such as hydraulic fittings, is still depends on the international market, its drawback is already appeared. In the first half of this year, sales of excavator has been in explosive growth, but the supply of spare parts can not keep up with demand, thus leading to a rapid decline in sales in the second half of this year. 

In addition, the current domestic production of bearings and other spare parts on a technical level have little difference with the imported products, but the misunderstanding has become a stumbling block for further development. Part of the wire machine enterprise should be overcome the stereotypes of imported spare parts are much better than domestic made ones.

Expansion Road of the welded wire mesh

Wire and mesh can be found everywhere, no matter fence netting in soccer fields, railways, green belt in highways, bridges, buildings, residential quarters, as well as welding of shelves and storage cages.

Welding Fundamentals is not hard for professional people. After training for days, normal people can master it. But expert is different from how to operate welded wire mesh machine in their exquisite work.

Resistance welding is a kind of welding method which presses the work piece between two electrodes and gives electric current to them, with the current flows through the work piece, the contact surfaces and the surrounding region generate resistor thermal effects and it is heated to a molten or plastic state, forming a metal binding. Working method of Welded wire mesh machine includes spot welding, seam welding, and projection welding, and so on.

Seamless welding skill shows excellent function in the mold processing, which improves parts precision and glossiness of appearance, and shortens the manufacturing cycle of the mold.
    

With the growing global market demand for high-quality parts, seamless welded steel net skill is more and more popular with customers, for it can improve part accuracy. Recently, the coalition partner of the Japanese company successfully developed a new seamless gantry welding skill, this company called Makino (Makino), and the seamless gantry weld machine it produces can effectively eliminate the welded joint, inform line and parting line between each mold.

The key to this process is to improve the processing skills and adopt vertical machining centers, with a whole new way to produce the mold. Moreover, it uses efficient heating and cooling cycle skills during the plastic injection molding process. This new skills are not yet pleaded patent; the Makino company develops some processing use one by one.

Seamless gantry weld skill can not only eliminate mold weld echoes to improve parts precision, but also do good to make the appearance more considerable. What’s more, this skill shortens the processing cycle of the mold by implementing efficient control. As the product produced by the process having a superior surface gloss degree, it does not demand a secondary sputtering and annealing, thus avoiding the change of the size of the secondary shortened constitute.

The welded wire mesh machine, of course, enjoys high popularity in the market mostly because it widely used for net products manufacturing in coal mines, highways, steel bridges, construction, etc. According to the industry injure early warning monitoring system from Ministry of Commerce, it ranks first in the factory price fluctuation, showing an increase of 41.50%. From this we can see that investing on this equipment is really a wise choice.

3 Practical Tips for Quickly Making Wire Meshes

In the previous time, people produce wire products by hand, which costs plenty of time and energy, then the wire mesh machine appeared and it automates many of these wire making processes, taking some of the burden off human workers and improving the production efficiency. And the wire machine not only solves this problem, but also meets people’s demand for different kinds of wires.

The automation of wire mesh production line increases the productivity of wire machine to a great extent compares with traditional hand made method, but is there still some way to improve the working efficiency of this equipment? Maybe you can make some improvements from the following aspects.

1. Wire tension. High wire tension is necessary to maximize accuracy, and it will also reduce corner error, belly, vibrations and deflections of the wire induced by flushing forces. Actually, a higher tensile wire will better resist breaking in high performance cutting than a “softer wire”, but it is not absolutely true. You should find the proper limitation. It is experimented that A .010” wire with a tensile strength of 900N/mm2 will reach the best effect.

2. Wire diameter. A larger diameter wire, along with its associated higher current levels, will typically leave more corner error than a smaller diameter wire; and results in more cutting debris, a combination of work piece and wire material; it normally also result in reduced power feed contact life. So you know that the wires diameter is not as larger as better, you should also seek an appropriate degree.

3. Cutting rate. To achieve reliable working effect and shorten cutting time, you should pay attention to the running speed. It is common to see a wire machine operator “fiddling” with the cutting parameters to get the last bit of speed out of the process, only to have the wire break ten minutes after he leaves for the night, thereby losing a whole night’s burn. But this will not frequently happen and as long as it’s done when the 1st shift arrives, you need not to worry about the job schedule. But if the wire breaks and the job doesn’t finish, not only are the nighttime hours wasted but the subsequent daytime schedule is blown also.

Apart from the above mentioned factors, you should also take care of the crimped wire mesh product line and regularly does some maintenance work, so as to keep the machine at best working state that is also important to help you quickly produce wire products.

Three Types of Crimped Wire Mesh Machine

Crimped wire netting machine is also referred to crimped wire mesh machine, pre-bend forming mesh machines, embossing net machinery, mine screen product line, square wire mesh machine, etc. It is mainly used for the production of crimped wire mesh.

Crimped wire mesh machine can be divided into three models: the semi-automatic type, automatic crimped type and hydraulic crimped wire mesh machine.

This device is among one of the wire mesh machinery. New crimped mesh machine break through the traditional mode of keyboard operating silk weaving, and adopts double-kun shot latitude to improve the stability of the number of weft knitting machinery, it is more convenient to operate. What’s more, the electromagnetic clutch sensor makes the brake go on automatically, which effectively improves production efficiency one and a half times and the mechanical failure rate is close to zero, achieving the automatic knitting of wire net whose diameter is below 2mm.

Semi-automatic crimped wire mesh product line is designed for thick wire; the mesh is first manually rolled into the weft, and the diameter is automatically set. It is applied to wire weaving of those diameters range from 2mm to 6mm; it has the advantages of simple operation and no broken diameter weft phenomenon. The new design has features of high production efficiency and stable mechanical properties.

The fully automatic type is shuttleless weft insertion. It can be divided into disposable crimped wire mesh equipment, universal crimped wire net equipment, the entire woven crimped net machinery and so forth. Disposable crimped wire mesh equipment comes with a complete set of ginning mold; it can edge and weave the top quality warp wires and weft wires at the same time. Universal crimped wire net equipment can complete the whole netting process with one set of mold, and it can be produce various woven mesh screen by a single equipment, it firstly enrolls the meshes, and then make them into designed diameter to process fully automatic netting. Both the two kinds of device are equipped with the automatic shutdown alarm of warp net and weft net error. The fully automatic type wire machine is CNC controlled and is easy to operate. It as applicable to automatic wire weaving of meshes whose diameter are below 2mm and wire network wide is below 3 meters.

Hydraulic type crimped meshes machine is manually enrolling the weft yarn, and is made up of cotton gin and hydraulic netting machinery. The cotton gin can be divided into CNC automatically broken type and manually broken type. Hydraulic netting machinery is suitable for large wire diameter crimped wires whose woven diameter range from 6mm to 14mm. It is widely used in mining, petrochemical, coal, ore screening.
