Equipped with a fast, versatile 360-degree continuously rotating head, the machine can process short and long length wire products up to 8mm (3/8") in diameter. To ensure the production of highly accurate twist- and mark-free finished wire products, the Zukron incorporates Pave’s unique ‘Trueline’ front end wire stabiliser and patented straightening system. Set-up and change-over times are very fast and the Zukron’s fully automated user-friendly CNC operation ensures very economical production.
