Gabion mesh is an indispensable core protective material in infrastructure projects such as water conservancy slope protection, highway and railway subgrade protection, and ecological management. It is woven into a hexagonal network structure by metal wire. After being filled with stones, it has the advantages of air permeability, water permeability, impact resistance and corrosion resistance, and can effectively resist hidden dangers such as water erosion and slope landslide. The quality and production efficiency of the stone cage net are completely dependent on the core production equipment behind it - the stone cage net machine. With the upgrading of automation technology, the servo gabion machine gradually replaces the ordinary gabion machine and becomes the mainstream of the industry. Today, we come to science : What is the servo gabion machine ? Where is it stronger than ordinary gabion machine ?
The servo gabion machine is essentially an automatic cage mesh weaving equipment controlled by servo drive system. The core is used to weave galvanized wire, plastic wire and other metal wires into hexagonal cage mesh according to the preset specifications, which can realize the automatic operation of the whole process from wire feeding, weaving, twisting to cutting and winding. It is not a simple replacement for the ' upgrade ' of the ordinary gabion machine, but with the servo motor as the power core, combined with the PLC control system and the human-computer interaction interface, the precise control and efficient operation of the knitting process are realized.
Its working principle can be simply understood as follows : through the servo motor to accurately control the wire feeding speed, knitting rhythm and edging strength, the metal wire is orderly woven into a uniform hexagonal mesh according to the set mesh size and wire diameter specifications, and the automatic edging and fixed-length cutting are completed at the same time. Finally, the stone cage mesh that can be directly used in engineering construction is output. Compared with traditional equipment, its core advantage is ' precise and controllable '.From wire conveying to mesh forming, each link can be adjusted by digital parameters, avoiding the error of manual operation or ordinary mechanical drive.
The application scenario of servo gabion machine is consistent with that of ordinary gabion machine. It covers a wide range of fields such as slope protection and revetment of water conservancy projects ( accounting for about 35 % ), roadbed protection of highways and railways ( accounting for about 28 % ), ecological management and mine restoration ( accounting for about 20 % ), as well as landscape and animal husbandry. It is especially suitable for large-scale infrastructure projects and mass production needs with high requirements for mesh accuracy and production efficiency.
The common stone cage netting machine is mostly driven by traditional asynchronous motors, which relies on mechanical transmission to control the weaving process. The operation is mainly manual adjustment, and there are short boards with low accuracy, slow efficiency and high energy consumption. By virtue of the dual advantages of servo drive and digital control, the servo cage netting machine has achieved all-round transcendence in core performance, and the specific differences are mainly reflected in the following five aspects.
Advantage 1 : higher weaving accuracy and more stable mesh quality.
The weaving accuracy of ordinary stone cage netting machine is greatly affected by mechanical wear and manual adjustment. The tolerance of mesh size often exceeds ± 5 %, which is prone to problems such as different mesh sizes, uneven mesh surface and loose hemming. It not only affects the beauty of stone cage net, but also reduces its impact resistance and service life. Loose hemming may cause mesh deformation after stone loading and cannot effectively fix stones.
The servo stone cage mesh machine is controlled by the PLC program of the precise positioning of the servo motor, and the mesh size tolerance is strictly controlled within ± 2 %. The wire diameter adaptation range can cover 1.5mm-4.0mm, which can accurately match the requirements of different projects for mesh specifications ( such as 80 × 100mm, 100 × 120mm ). At the same time, the servo system can adjust the wire feeding speed and weaving rhythm in real time to ensure that the weaving angle and the edge strength of each metal wire are completely consistent. The woven mesh is flat, the edge is firm, and the tensile strength is higher, which can better meet the stringent engineering standards. According to industry data, the equipment with servo drive system can improve the consistency of stone cage network products by more than 40 %.
Advantage 2 : double the production efficiency, greatly save labor costs
The weaving speed of the ordinary cage netting machine is slow, and it needs to be manually on duty throughout the whole process. It is responsible for wire feeding, adjusting parameters, cutting mesh and other operations. A device usually requires 2-3 workers to cooperate, which not only has high labor cost, but also is easy to affect the production progress due to manual operation errors. The weaving speed of some ordinary models can only reach 30 revolutions per minute, which is difficult to meet the demand of mass production.
The servo gabion machine realizes the whole process automation, from wire feeding and weaving to hemming, cutting and winding, without too much manual intervention, and only one worker is responsible for monitoring one equipment. At the same time, the response speed of the servo motor is faster, and the weaving speed can reach more than 60 revolutions per minute. Some high-end models can complete the production of 10000 m2 mesh in 12 hours, and the production efficiency is 50 % -100 % higher than that of ordinary cage netting machine. For the massive gabion mesh required for large-scale projects, the servo gabion mesh machine can greatly shorten the production cycle, reduce labor input, and indirectly reduce production costs.
Advantage 3 : lower energy consumption, more economical for long-term use
The asynchronous motor used in the ordinary cage netting machine has high energy consumption when starting, and the energy consumption is unstable during operation. Even if it does not need to operate at full load, it will consume a lot of electric energy. At the same time, the mechanical transmission parts wear faster, need frequent maintenance and replacement, and the maintenance cost of long-term use is higher.
The servo motor of the servo gabion machine has the characteristics of ' on-demand energy supply '. It only outputs the required power during the weaving process, and the energy consumption is greatly reduced when the machine is running at no-load or low-load. Compared with the ordinary gabion machine, it can save energy by 15 % -30 %. In addition, the mechanical structure of the servo system is more compact, and the core components are made of high-strength alloy steel. The wear rate is low, and the failure rate is much lower than that of ordinary models. It can reduce the number of maintenance and the cost of parts replacement. Long-term use can save a considerable amount of energy consumption and maintenance costs for enterprises.
Advantage 4 : more convenient operation and stronger adaptability
The parameter adjustment of the ordinary gabion machine depends on manual operation, which requires workers to have rich experience. The adjustment process is cumbersome, and it takes a lot of time to debug the equipment when replacing the mesh specifications and wire diameter specifications, which affects the production efficiency. At the same time, the operation is difficult, and it is difficult for novices to get started quickly.
The servo stone cage netting machine is equipped with a human-computer interaction touch screen. The operator only needs to input the mesh size, wire diameter, knitting speed and other parameters through the screen, and can start the equipment at one click. The parameter adjustment is accurate and convenient, and the novice can quickly master the operation method. In addition, it adopts modular design and supports personalized customization. It can flexibly adjust the mesh size, mesh width ( up to 5300 mm ) and hemming method ( 3 or 5 strands of hemming can be adjusted by touch screen ) according to different engineering requirements. The adaptability is much better than that of ordinary stone cage netting machine, which can not only meet the mass standardized production, but also meet the customization requirements of multi-specification and small batch.
Advantage 5 : more stable operation, longer service life
The mechanical transmission structure of the ordinary stone cage netting machine is complex, and it is easy to produce large vibration and noise during operation. It not only affects the working environment of the operator, but also accelerates the wear of the mechanical parts and shortens the service life of the equipment. The service life of the ordinary stone cage netting machine is usually 3-5 years.
The servo gabion machine adopts the servo transmission mechanism to replace the gear swing arm mechanism of the ordinary model, which has the advantages of small vibration, low noise and smooth operation process. At the same time, the core components of the equipment are precisely machined, and the friction loss between the mechanical components is reduced with the precise control of the servo system. The service life can be extended to 8-10 years, which greatly improves the cost performance of the equipment. In addition, some servo gabion machines are also equipped with a fault alarm function, which can monitor the operation status of the equipment in real time, remind the operator to deal with the fault in time, and further reduce the equipment failure rate.
3.The core value of the servo cage netting machine
With the continuous improvement of the requirements for the quality and production efficiency of the cage net in the infrastructure project, the servo gabion machine has gradually replaced the ordinary cage net machine with the core advantages of ' precision, high efficiency, energy saving and convenience ', and has become the mainstream equipment in the production field of the cage net. It not only solves the pain points of low precision, slow efficiency and high energy consumption of ordinary gabion machines, but also helps enterprises reduce production costs, improve product competitiveness, and adapt to more high-end engineering needs.
Simply speaking, the ordinary gabion machine meets the basic needs of ' production ', while the servo gabion machine realizes the high-level needs of ' good production, fast production and low cost '. For the enterprises engaged in the production of stone cage net and the construction of infrastructure projects, the choice of servo stone cage net machine is undoubtedly a wise move to improve production efficiency and ensure project quality.
