General description
Steel wire zig zag is a product obtained starting from the coils or bars of smooth, indented or ribbed wire that is bended alternately (through an automatic bending unit) and cut headed, head and tail.
Steel wire zig zag, thanks to the high flexibility of the zig zag machines it is a product that can assume different shapes in terms of pitch and height of the zig zag bending and the diameter or length of the entry wire used.
The final product applications are as connecting elements of the reticular lattice girder (also known as PREM or REP beam).
Compared to manual manufacturing methods, the advantages of this kind of automatic bending machine is the productivity, greater flexibility and rapidity in production changes of the diameter sizes, the quality and the repeatability of the product, the limited number of operators (only one operator controls the whole plant and not full time) and the production and maintenance costs.

Thanks to more than 40 years of experience in the field of process of rolling, we manufacture high performances automatic turn key plants, that are tailor made on the needs of our customers in terms of layout, products sizes, mechanical properties, level of automation and which allow to finally reduce the transformation costs for each tons of steel wire produced.
Our offer is not limited to the construction of machines and equipment. If required, we are also able to supply valid training, technical assistance and consulting to improve the production; These services are the keys to reach the target and maintain it over time in terms of efficiency and performance of the plant as well as in terms of correct dimensional and geometrical tolerance of the final products.

Final products
Our machine for zig zag wire is the following
The Zig Zag machine is our solution to produce the connecting elements of the reticular lattice girder. It is a machine that combine the automatic alternative bending of the wire with an automatic cutting system to cut the head and the tail of product.
This kind of machine belong to our division of special machine and obviously it is customized upon the request of our customer based on the different shapes and dimensions of the final products (the design start from the final product to produce).
In the higher level of customization, the lines can be equipped with an automatic loading system composed by a multi position storage for bars and an automatic arm that load the bar from the selected position of the storage directly to the machine. At the exit is it possible to integrate the downloading system of the pieces with an automatic multi position bank that receive the products dividing them by type.
