Design and manufacture of machines

The company started in 1994 as an engineering company providing design services, machine repairs and technical consultancy. Back in 1999, we did a very important project for a machine producing a knotted fence mesh (with knots known internationally as Hinged Joint) for the protection of highways, roads, forest and livestock areas – LS. It has turned out to be the basis of our company’s success. Later versions of the LS machines (LS5; LS6; LS8; LS9) were continually upgraded as a result of new experience. As it has been found, they have performed well in continuous operation, and at the request of customers we have upgraded many older machines to newer versions, improving their performance and reliability. More than 100 machines of our production are currently in operation. We have been operating from our own 1000m2 facility in Kędzierzyn-Koźle since 2005. Additionally, we have had a branch plant in Žižela a few kilometres away since 2011.

Machines for knotted mesh production are a must

We are currently the only company in Europe and one of 3-4 in the world to offer machines of our own design for the production of knotted mesh. For the past 15 years, the majority of mesh machines in Europe have come from our production. Versatility is unrivalled – including the ease and time of changing the sizes of mesh produced, as well as the types of wires. For example, machines from a rival company in New Zealand are faster, but less versatile and several times more expensive. On the other hand, Chinese machines have a lower price, but their quality and performance leave much to be desired, as their buyers, our later customers, have discovered. Our other customers tried to make their own versions of our machines, but as a consequence, after 1-2 years they bought another machine from us while the “copies” were put away.

Our machines are unrivalled in terms of versatility, ease of conversion to other mesh sizesand, importantly, operating cost. The machine is operated by 1 employee.

We started producing Cravat-Lock® knotted netting (a knot known internationally as Fixed Knot) in 2020 on a different type of machine (purchased and redesigned by us).

Customers in Poland - have more than 70 machines of our production
Customers abroad - have about 30 machines of our production

LS8 series machines

LS8 is an elaboration of our previous series (LS5, LS6, LS7). We provide support, maintenance services and spare parts for all types of machines manufactured by us, including those produced as far back as 20 years ago.

LS8 series machines are available in 4 size versions:

  • LS8-3ST – used for making mesh with a maximum width of 200 cm and up to 25 longitudinal wires. The most frequently purchased model.
  • LS8.2500-3ST – used for making mesh with a maximum width of 250 cm and up to 27 longitudinal wires. It can also make 2 narrower pieces of mesh simultaneously.
  • LS8.3000-3ST – used for making mesh with a maximum width of 300 cm and up to 30 longitudinal wires. It can also make 2(3) narrower pieces of mesh simultaneously. Equipped with a transverse wire feeder compatible with LS9 machines.
  • LS8.1600-3ST – used for making mesh with a maximum width of 1.6m. This is our most recent model, in which we have introduced a number of changes – yet another step in the process of constant improvement of our products. It is also the fastest of our models. In addition, we can manufacture customised machines according to the client’s requirements, for example with more wires processed, a different mesh width or higher output.

LS8 produces mesh from steel wires with diameters of 1.6mm to 2.5mm (up to 3.0mm for longitudinal edge wires), and tensile strength (Rm) of:

  • for longitudinal wires: 350 to 1400 MPa
  • for transverse wires: 350 to 500 MPa

The practical output of LS8 machines, depending on the quality of wires, type of mesh or type of tooling used in the machines. With good quality wires output can reach 800-1200 m2/hour.

In addition, we can manufacture customised machines according to the client’s requirements, for example with more wires processed, a different mesh width or higher performance.

LS9 series machines

This is our most powerful series of machines. They can produce mesh with a maximum width of up to 310 cm and a maximum of 36 longitudinal wires. These parameters can be increased on the client’s request, after prior consultation and change of design.
LS9 produces wire mesh from steel wires with diameters of 1.8 mm (1.6 mm with additional wire drive rollers) to 2.5 mm (up to 3.2 mm for longitudinal edge wires), and tensile strength (Rm) of:

  • for longitudinal wires: 350 -1400 MPa (for wire diameter larger than 2.5 mm, Rm up to 1100 MPa)
  • for transverse wires: 350 to 500MPa

Practical output of LS9.3100 machines, depends on wire quality and type of mesh. With good quality wire it reaches 800-1200 m2/hour with maximum 55-60 cycles per minute.

Maszyny serii LS8

Seria LS8… jest rozwinięciem i udoskonaleniem wcześniejszych (…, LS5…, LS6…, LS7…) serii przez nas produkowanych. Zapewniamy wsparcie, serwis i części zamienne dla wszystkich typów wyprodukowanych przez nas maszyn. Także tych sprzed 20 lat.

Maszyny serii LS8… występują w 4 typach wielkościowych:

  • LS8-3ST – produkuje siatkę o maksymalnej szerokości 200 cm i do 25 drutów wzdłużnych. Najczęściej kupowana maszyna.
  • LS8.2500-3ST – produkuje siatkę o maksymalnej szerokości 250 cm i do 27 drutów wzdłużnych. Może też produkować równocześnie 2 węższe siatki
