What Is the Smartest Way to Mass-Produce Animal-Shaped Knife Holders?

Discover Jinchun’s All-in-One 2D Bending & Welding Machine for Artistic Metal Structures

Animal-shaped kitchen knife holders are gaining popularity for their blend of practical utility and decorative appeal. To meet growing market demand, Foshan Jinchun Industrial Automation Technology Co., Ltd., one of the trusted small 2D CNC iron wire bending machine manufacturers, introduces a high-efficiency automation solution: the 2D Frame Bending and Welding Integrated Machine. This intelligent bender is engineered for the precise and automated mass production of custom metal forming components like artistic utensil racks and animal-shaped frames.

🎯 Why Choose This Machine for Artistic Knife Rack Production?

✅ Tailored for Design Complexity and Output Needs

Designed with a robust 4-axis CNC structure and advanced 3D gearbox, the Jinchun 2D bender can shape and weld 3–8mm iron wires into complex animal silhouettes with full 360° rotation. Internal and external molds can move vertically to accommodate intricate 3D contours. Each mold is crafted from SKD11/71 steel (HRC 58–62°), ensuring long-lasting accuracy.

The machine integrates bending, cutting, and welding functions into one seamless process—an ideal solution for manufacturers needing streamlined production and minimal handling between stages.

⚙️ How the Machine Works to Maximize Output and Consistency

📈 High-Speed Output

• ⚡ Production speed: 10–15 units/min

• 🌀 Max wire feeding speed: 25 m/min

• 🔁 Bending speed: up to 100 bends/min

• 📦 Test case (200×200mm square): 10–15 pieces/min

Perfectly suited for medium and large-scale kitchenware factories, especially those handling ring making or welded structural components.

🎮 Advanced CNC Control

• 🧠 32-bit control system with touchscreen + keypad interface

• 🌐 Dual-language support (EN/CH)

• 💾 Stores up to 4,000 programs, each with 300 programmable actions

• 📤 Built-in program upload/download for easy job changeovers

• 🎯 Precision: ±0.5mm for both wire feeding and bending

With microcomputer-based automation, the machine handles all steps from wire feeding, straightening, bending, cutting to automated welding—achieving “one-button start, full-process automation.”

🔩 Integrated Welding System: Where Form Meets Strength

Unlike traditional setups requiring separate welding stations, the Jinchun 2D machine includes a dedicated welding module:

• 🔧 2 robotic welding clamps

• ⚡ 63KW welding transformer

This integration ensures solid joints across all connection points, essential for ensuring the durability of decorative yet functional knife holders. It also reduces handling, boosts workflow efficiency, and minimizes quality issues caused by misalignment during manual transfer.

📐 Industrial-Grade Build with Compact Design

• Machine size: 2600 × 1300 × 1650 mm

• Weight: 1100 kg

• Power: 3-phase 380V + Ground

• Wire Types Supported: Round, flat, or square wires

• Wire Diameter: 3–8mm

• Motion Modes: Mold up/down, 360° rotation (CW/CCW)

Constructed for durability, this machine is engineered for intensive, continuous use in industrial environments—ideal for forming welded metal frames with both function and visual appeal.

💼 ROI: Fast Payback, Scalable Efficiency

At a competitive price of just 6X,XXX RMB (excluding tax/shipping), the machine offers a short ROI cycle. Verified by clients in Shenzhen and across China, it's already proven effective in helping manufacturers meet sudden spikes in demand.

🗨️ “We ordered this machine as soon as we landed a new contract—it’s helped us fulfill production without delays.”

This reflects the value of investing in a reliable wire forming and welding welder combo that supports both standard and creative product development.
