  • Patent number: 7878038
    Abstract: A process of production of three-dimensional products from wire (1) or other suitable material, which process may be implemented in a system (8) that may include an advancement mechanism (9), a straightening mechanism (11), a length measuring arrangement (18) towards which advances the material (1), a gripper arrangement (14) suitable to hold the material with fixed grippers (15) and simultaneously with other grippers (16) to twist it to a desired angle around its longitudinal axis (X), and a rotatable bending mechanism (12) that can bend the material plastically in one plane and simultaneously can rotate at a desired angle around the longitudinal axis (X) of the wire (1) so that it may generate bends in different planes. The system (8) implementing the process may also carry a cutting arrangement (13).

  • Patent number: 7497105
    Abstract: A machine and method for parallel production of similar products by wires, wire rods, tubes, or other material of prismatic cross section, which is characterized by existence of more than one production lines, which operate in parallel and which may comprise similar mechanisms for straightening and bending of the material, similar mechanisms for changing of the bending plane, and for cutting of the final parts. All the straightening mechanisms may be driven by a common motor, through a common driving mechanism; all the bending mechanisms may be driven by a common motor, through a common driving mechanism; all the mechanisms for the changing of the bending plane may also be driven by a common motor, through a common driving mechanism; and all the cutters may be driven by a common power source. All the operation of the motors and of the driving mechanisms may be controlled and programmed by one common controlling unit.
