In the production of 304 stainless steel charcoal baskets, high-performance processing equipment is crucial for creating high-quality baskets with features like "heat & corrosion resistance, thickened 加粗 structure, deformation resistance, and durability". The 2-6 full-servo loop and butt welding all-in-one machine has become the industry's indispensable core equipment, thanks to its precise processing capabilities, high production efficiency, and perfect adaptability to stainless steel. It provides solid support for charcoal basket manufacturers to break through capacity bottlenecks and enhance product competitiveness.

I. High-efficiency Production for Large-scale Manufacturing Needs
For 304 stainless steel charcoal baskets, stable mass production capacity is a key foundation for seizing market share. The equipment leads similar products with a production speed of 10-15 pieces per minute, meeting the concentrated delivery needs of large orders. Its core power system consists of a 2.6KW/3000 rpm domestic servo wire-feeding motor and a 1.0KW servo cutting motor, with a wire-feeding speed of 35 meters per minute, achieving fully automated control of the entire process: wire conveying, loop forming, cutting, and welding.
Notably, addressing the high hardness and processing challenges of 304 stainless steel wires, the equipment's servo system employs intelligent torque compensation technology. When processing 6mm thick wires, the wire-feeding motor automatically adjusts output power to ensure stable wire posture during high-speed conveying, avoiding loop deformation caused by tension fluctuations. This feature enables the equipment to maintain a stable production capacity of over 12 pieces per minute when processing "thickened" charcoal basket skeletons, increasing efficiency by 40% compared to traditional equipment and significantly reducing labor intervention costs in large-scale production.

II. Precision Processing Redefines Quality Standards for Charcoal Baskets
The "deformation resistance" and "durability" of 304 stainless steel charcoal baskets essentially rely on high-precision control in loop forming and welding. The equipment excels in key precision indicators: circumference tolerance ±0.2mm, loop diameter tolerance 0.5mm, and flatness <0.5mm—all three core parameters reach top industry levels.
-
Loop Forming: The equipment uses a full-servo closed-loop control system, collecting wire movement data in real time through high-precision encoders and combining self-developed trajectory compensation algorithms to ensure precise control of loop diameter ranges for different wire diameters:
- 2-2.5mm: 25-300mm
- 3-4mm: 30-400mm
- 4-5mm: 40-400mm
- 6mm: 55-400mm (wires above 3mm support loops over 400mm)
This fine-tuned adjustment capability ensures strict dimensional consistency for different structural components, such as circular skeletons and square frames, providing a standardized foundation for subsequent welding and assembly.
-
Welding: Equipped with a 50KVA medium-frequency welding system and precise control of 0.6MPa compressed air pressure, it achieves deep fusion of 304 stainless steel wires. Third-party testing shows that the tensile strength of welding points reaches 98% of the base material, with no cracks or oxidation in welds under high-temperature conditions (300℃ for 2 hours), fully meeting the long-term high-temperature charcoal contact requirements of charcoal baskets.
III. Material Adaptability Breaks Through Stainless Steel Processing Bottlenecks
304 stainless steel combines corrosion resistance and mechanical strength but poses processing challenges like fast heat conduction and sensitive thermal deformation. The equipment overcomes technical bottlenecks through three core designs:
-
Optimized Wire Pretreatment
For 2-6mm 304 stainless steel wires, the wire-feeding mechanism uses a surface-adaptive clamping device that monitors wire diameter changes in real time via elastic modulus sensors, automatically adjusting clamping pressure to avoid surface scratches caused by traditional rigid clamping. The wire-feeding guide rails feature wear-resistant tungsten steel coatings, reducing the wire conveying friction coefficient to 0.08 and effectively minimizing surface damage during processing to ensure the aesthetics of finished charcoal baskets.
-
Thermal Deformation Control Technology
The welding system is equipped with an independent water-cooling circulation device. A cooling water flow of 50L/min can reduce the temperature of the welding area to below 60℃ within 100ms, combined with the fast response of the servo cutting motor (cutting time <50ms), forming millisecond-level collaborative control of "welding-cooling-cutting", limiting thermal deformation per loop to within 0.3mm. This technology is particularly important for 6mm thick wires, ensuring that the charcoal basket skeleton maintains a deformation rate of ≤1mm after long-term use in high-temperature environments.
-
Compatible Surface Protection Processes
All components in contact with stainless steel wires are coated with food-grade 316L stainless steel to avoid material contamination caused by metal ion precipitation, fully meeting the production standards for food-grade charcoal baskets. For high-end charcoal baskets requiring surface polishing, the semi-finished products processed by the equipment have a surface roughness of only Ra1.6—50% better than traditional equipment—significantly reducing material loss in subsequent polishing processes.
IV. Stability and Reliability Ensure Long-term Production
In industrial production environments, equipment stability directly affects production costs. The equipment adopts an integrated steel structure body weighing 800KG, with a compact size of 2400×1450×1500mm, capable of withstanding mechanical vibrations during high-speed operation while fitting well in small and medium workshop layouts. The electrical system is designed with IP54 protection, effectively preventing metal debris from entering the control system in dusty charcoal basket production environments, ensuring the service life of core components such as servo motors and PLC controllers.
Notably, the equipment has a duty cycle of 50% (i.e., it can work continuously for 30 minutes at rated power). Through the linkage control of an intelligent temperature control system and cooling fans, even in 24-hour continuous production mode, the temperature of core components remains stable below 70℃—15% lower than the industry average—greatly reducing downtime and maintenance frequency due to overheating. Production practice shows that the equipment's mean time between failures (MTBF) exceeds 8000 hours, significantly reducing enterprise operation and maintenance costs.
In the production chain of 304 stainless steel charcoal baskets, the 2-6 full-servo loop and butt welding all-in-one machine is not just a processing device but a technological engine driving industry upgrading. It meets large-scale production needs with an efficient capacity of 15 pieces per minute, creates durable skeletons with ±0.2mm precision, breaks through stainless steel processing bottlenecks with intelligent temperature control technology, and builds a reliable production system with 8000 hours of stable operation.
For enterprises pursuing the product positioning of "thickened, heat & corrosion resistant", this equipment not only achieves a high yield rate from raw materials to finished products (first-time inspection pass rate ≥98%) but also enables rapid switching between different specifications of charcoal baskets through parameterized programming, adapting to the market's instant response needs for diversified products. As the charcoal basket industry enters the deep water of "quality competition", this equipment is redefining production value through technological innovation, helping enterprises establish irreplicable core advantages in the high-end market.
