Wire mesh weaving machine YG-20-100

Product overview
A chain link fence machine automatically weaves metallic wires into interlocking diamond-mesh panels. Modern units use PLC touchscreen control and servo motor drives to manage spiral wire feeding, weaving, cutting and automatic edge curling or twisting. Machines accept galvanized and PVC-coated wires and can be configured for knuckled, twisted or knuckle-only mesh sides.

Main capabilities

• Automatic spiral feeding, weaving and cutting controlled by PLC touchscreen and servo drives.
• Compatible raw materials: hot-dipped galvanized, electro-galvanized, PVC-coated, aluminum-clad steel, stainless steel.
• Adjustable mesh width and length; quick-change molds to switch mesh sizes.
• Single-wire or dual-wire feed configurations available for different production rates and wire diameters.

Fully Automatic vs Semi-Automatic (feature comparison)

• Output rate: Fully automatic 70–150 m²/h — Semi-automatic 20–40 m²/h.
• Labor needed: Fully automatic 1 operator — Semi-automatic 2–3 workers.
• Compatible wires: Fully automatic: galvanized, PVC-coated, stainless steel — Semi-automatic: galvanized, mild steel.
• Material waste: Fully automatic: nearly zero — Semi-automatic: higher end-scrap rate.

How to choose for industrial applications

• Commercial & highway security: select machines handling 2.5–4.5 mm wire and mesh sizes 50–80 mm; heavy-duty single- or double-wire feed for continuous operation.
• Sports courts & public parks: prefer PVC-coated or aluminum-clad wire compatibility and larger mesh widths (up to 4–6 m).
• Mining & slope protection: choose heavy-gauge galvanized or stainless-steel compatibility to resist corrosion in harsh environments.

Operational & maintenance notes

• Operators set mesh width, weaving speed and length on the touchscreen; familiarization is quick with tutorial materials.
• Daily maintenance: remove metal shavings and check oil levels in key gears.
• Weekly maintenance: inspect drive belt tension and lubricate moving cutter joints.
• Recommendation: order extra spiral weave molds with the initial purchase; changeover typically under 30 minutes. Run a trial roll with local wire to fine-tune servo tension before full production.

Frequently asked questions
