RH 13-16 QUALITY STRAIGHTENING
The RH series straightening machines are designed for
straightening and cutting of wires up to a maximum length
of 12 meters. Product quality, usability and sturdiness are the
main charcteristics of this machinery.

FLEXIBILITY
The different configurations allow to set the production
according to specific needs: high volume productions
(same diameter and length), flexibility (different diameters
and lengths).
Straightening system

WINNING POWER
The straightening process is achived
through a rotating group equipped with
hyperbolic rollers having adjustable tilt
and pitch. During the rotation phase,
the wire is simultaneously dragged and
straightened. This feature minimizes
the longitudinal ribs deformation
and does not affect the mechanical
characteristics of the steel material. The
use of dedicated rotors, depending on the
various diameters, additionally improves
the finished product quality.
The (patented) tailstock system allows
the operator to change rotors quickly and
easily.

• GBO1-GBM decoilers equipped with a braking

system controlled by the control panel, based
on the production cycle. GBM version is
• The MEP Industrial PLC operator control panel is composed of: provided with motorization.
- LCD screen for data visualization in a “user friendly” graphic form.
- Low power consumption (embedded) microprocessor.
- Input/output and axes control electronic circuit boards equipped with short-
circuit prevention system.

WIRE BUTT WELDER

• MEP’s developed software allows:
- Inputting bars production data and memorizing several batches to be produced
in sequence.
- Displaying production status.
- Adjusting production speed and decoiler rotation speed through potentiometers. • Allows to weld the ends of two coils in order to reduce the handling time.
- Control of all the machine parameters depending on the diameter used. (OPTIONAL)
- Utilizing an “active diagnostic” system to verify constantly the efficiency of all
the plant’s devices.
- Predisposition for the memorization of the data related to the daily work cycles
(diameters processed and daily weights processed subdivided by diameter).
- Predisposition for alarms history with related memorization of machine stop time
and production time. TECHNICAL AND PRODUCTION CHARACTERISTICS
- Predisposition for production downloading through external computer or optical
reader through serial port RS 232 (e.g. bar code reader). BAR WORKABLE DIAMETER RH13/1 RH 16/1
