  • What's the Difference Between Wire Forming Machine and Spring Machine

    Date:2024-01-25 

    Wire forming machines are subdivisions of the spring machine industry. Both types of equipment are very commonly used processing equipment in the production field. Spring machines can also produce some wire processing products. So what's the difference between wire forming machines and spring machines?
    The difference between wire forming machine and spring machine:
    ● The wire forming machine can bend steel wire, iron wire, stainless steel wire and other wire rods into flat or three-dimensional shapes. It can produce a wide range of wire diameters. Generally, it can make wire bending and forming products of 3-14mm. The spring machine is mainly used in the processing and production of various springs. Few equipment can produce large wire diameter products above 8mm, but it can achieve more complex processing and forming.
    ● Spring machines can do wire forming, but wire forming machines cannot make springs. Many wire forming products, mainly straightening, folding, and cutting, require speed and stability, and a dedicated wire forming machine has better performance than a spring machine. It meets its speed and stability requirements and can better meet the needs of batch line forming production.
    ● The wire forming machine only focuses on the field of wire forming, can reduce the error parameter to ±0.1mm, and is used in various high-precision accessories fields. It also has a price advantage compared to spring machines.
    Although the spring machine has the function of a wire forming machine, in the field of wire forming processing, the wire forming machine has better advantages in efficiency, price, and stability, and the spring machine can achieve complex forming and is more suitable for use in spring processing applications. On the other hand, enterprises need to choose appropriate equipment according to their own needs.
