Automated systems designed for fabricating welded wire mesh employ electrical resistance to fuse intersecting wires, creating a strong, rigid grid structure. These grids find diverse applications, ranging from fencing and reinforcement materials in construction to filters and screens in industrial processes. A common example is the production of reinforcement mesh used in concrete slabs.
The automation provided by this equipment significantly increases production efficiency compared to manual methods, ensuring consistent weld quality and precise mesh dimensions. This leads to cost savings, reduced labor requirements, and enhanced product reliability. Historically, mesh fabrication was a laborious manual process. The development of automated welding technology revolutionized the industry, allowing for large-scale production and expanding the applications of wire mesh.
