How does an iron wire bending machine work?
My friends all say that iron wire bending machines are great, but what exactly makes these machines so good?
Let's take a look at the working principle of an automatic iron wire bending machine to find out. It mainly involves the following key links and corresponding steps:
1. Feeding Link Loading Preparation:
Place the coiled iron wire on the material rack equipped with the machine. The material rack usually has adjustable devices that can adapt to the placement of coils of different specifications. It can also adjust the tension of the iron wire to ensure that the iron wire can be fed out smoothly and orderly. Feeding Drive: The feeding of the iron wire is achieved by the feeding rollers. The feeding rollers are generally composed of multiple pairs and are powered by the feeding servo motor.
2. Positioning Link Wire - feeding Wheels:
After the iron wire is transported to the designated position, the wire - feeding wheels of the machine come into play. The clamping force of the wire wheels can be adjusted according to factors such as the thickness and material of the iron wire to ensure that it can be firmly clamped without damaging the iron wire. Coordinate Positioning: With the help of the positioning components on the machine (such as positioning pins, positioning blocks with scale marks, etc.) and the information fed back by the sensors, the position of the iron wire in the three - dimensional space is accurately determined. This provides accurate starting coordinates for the upcoming bending operation and ensures that the bending angle, direction, etc. meet the preset requirements.
3. Bending Link Mold Selection and Installation:
According to the requirements of the shape and angle to be bent, select the appropriate bending mold and install it on the bending head. Bending molds come in different shapes and specifications, such as common fixed - angle molds like 90 - degree and 180 - degree molds, or arc molds used to bend specific arcs, to meet diverse bending needs. Bending Action Execution: Driven by the bending drive device (such as a hydraulic system, pneumatic system, or electric servo system), the bending head moves according to the pre - set program and parameters, driving the bending mold to perform the bending operation on the clamped and fixed iron wire. During the bending process, the control system strictly controls key parameters such as the bending speed, force, and angle to ensure that the accuracy of each bending can reach the set standard.
4. Welding Link (if with welding function) Welding Preparation:
When the iron wire is bent to the stage where welding is required (some iron wire products need welding to fix the shape, etc.), the welding execution components start to prepare. The welding torch (or welding head) will move to the designated welding position, and its type depends on the specific welding process adopted (such as arc welding, laser welding, resistance welding, etc.). Welding Operation: Driven by the welding movement mechanism, the welding torch welds the welding parts of the iron wire according to the preset welding path and trajectory under the precise control of the welding control system.
5. Repetition and Finished - product Output Link Circular Operation:
The above steps of feeding, positioning, bending, and welding (if any) will be continuously repeated according to the design requirements of the product until all the processing procedures such as bending and welding of the entire iron wire product are completed. Finished - product Output: After the iron wire product is processed, the clamping components release the clamping of the iron wire, and the finished product is transported out through the machine's discharging device (such as a conveyor belt or discharge chute), completing the entire automatic processing process. Then the machine can continue to process the next batch of iron wire products.

Throughout the whole process, the control system (PLC) of the automatic bending machine plays a core coordinating and commanding role. It receives information such as product parameters and process requirements input by the operator and combines with the real - time operating status of the machine fed back by various sensors to precisely control the motors, drive devices, and execution components of each link, ensuring the efficient and accurate automatic bending and processing of iron wire.
It seems that wire bending equipment is truly the best choice for start - up manufacturers that require automated production. If you are interested in wire bending machines or have further needs, please click the link: https://www.jinchunmachine.com/ to obtain more detailed information.
