Structure and Functionality of the welded wire machine
1.Feeding System:The machine's feeding system is responsible for pulling and adjusting the rebar's tension as it enters the machine. This system is equipped with automatic wire feeders and tension controllers to ensure the rebar is fed smoothly and consistently.
2.Mesh Forming Mechanism: The machine precisely arranges the longitudinal and transverse rebars into a grid pattern, with adjustable spacing between the bars. The distance between wires and the diameter of the rebar can be customized to meet specific mesh requirements.
3.Welding System:The welding system uses high-frequency electrical current to create welds at the intersections of the rebar. The electrodes heat the contact points to create strong, permanent welds. The system automatically adjusts the current and pressure to ensure uniform weld quality.
4.Control System: Modern rebar mesh welding machines are equipped with a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), allowing operators to easily set parameters such as mesh size, rebar diameter, welding spacing, and more. The control system ensures stability and efficiency during production.
5.Cutting and Output System:After the mesh is welded, the machine automatically cuts the welded mesh into the required length or roll size, depending on the set parameters. The mesh is then discharged automatically, making it ready for further processing or packaging.
Working Principle
1.Rebar Feeding:Rebar is loaded into the machine, where it is fed through the feeding system. The tension is adjusted to ensure the rebar is straight and evenly spaced before welding.
2.Mesh Formation:The machine arranges the rebar in a grid pattern. The vertical and horizontal rebar cross each other at specific intervals, and the spacing is controlled precisely.
3.Welding Process:
High-frequency electric current is applied at the intersection points of the rebar. This creates welds that securely bind the rebars together, forming a strong and durable mesh. The welding parameters such as current, pressure, and time are adjusted according to the wire diameter and mesh size.
4.Cutting and Discharge:Once the mesh is welded, the machine cuts it into the required length or rolls. The welded mesh is then discharged for further use.
1.Construction Industry: The welded wire machine is used to produce rebar mesh for concrete reinforcement, such as floor slabs, foundations, walls, and other structural applications.
Bridge and Road Construction: Rebar mesh is used in the reinforcement of bridges, roads, and other infrastructure to ensure strength and stability.
2.Tunnel Engineering:Rebar mesh is essential for reinforcing tunnel walls and floors, providing structural integrity and safety.
3.Industrial Facilities:In factories, warehouses, and other industrial settings, rebar mesh is used for reinforcement purposes, particularly in flooring and walls.
4.Other Construction Projects: Rebar mesh is also used in other construction areas, including parking lots, underground parking structures, retaining walls, and seismic-resistant structures.
