FUN AND EDUCATIONAL!! HOW FENCING WIRE IS MADE!! YOU'LL ENJOY THIS VLOG!

What happens here

The production manager, Wayne, explains that the factory uses large weaving machines. The raw wire from numerous spools is fed upwards into the rafters of the building, passing through a pulley system. A 'dark spot' indicates where two pieces of wire are welded together. The Hinge Joint machine operates by continuously pulling wires through, crimping them, and weaving them into the fence pattern. Safety sensors are demonstrated, which stop the machine if a worker gets too close. A worker is shown manually cutting a finished roll of fencing from the machine and preparing it for the next stage. The internal mechanisms of how the wire is crimped and how the knots are tied are observed up close.

Goal: The production manager provides an overview of the weaving machines, followed by a detailed demonstration of the Hinge Joint machine, showing how raw wire is fed, crimped, and woven into fencing, with an emphasis on safety features and manual finishing.

quality of this tornado wire tell us who you are what do you do I'm a win I'm the production manager here at Oneonta wire and we're gonna go and look at interested stuff you've seen the finished product that's gone our locker sell this stuff such a made in a nutshell ISA live large weaving machines we got a raw material and we the machines okay I'll give you a bit more of an insight and stop coming right over okay guys gonna be loud in here we're going to the hinge joint first I'm just going to put you on the machine and let you sit we're going to slow the Machine down and we're going to do that with each machine and show you how they all work how everything turns through and I'll walk you through it so hearing protection eye protection and head protection in the warehouse is really really important guys see how he just ran out of wire right there there's a danger but that wire could pop up and swing around and hit you so you got to be really careful there reloading and hooking up another wire alright so what you're seeing right here is the wire coming off the spool it goes up into the rafters of the building through a pulley system and you can see that little dark spot that's the weld where they welded those two pieces of wire together basically these machines are just gigantic weaving knot-tying machines and each bundle comes off and is hand cut and hand processed and there's a lot of checks and balances in place here to make sure that the wire comes off right and the wire is put together right so machines don't do this this is all done by hand now you can see a new roll starting to get formed here we'll go around the other side and show you how the knots tied this is the roller part that crimps the wire you can see it kind of moving and putting the little crimp in the wire to help hold it tight now we're over here on the front side of the machine and you can see the wire goes through a tub of lubricant before it goes into the machine to keep it lubricated as it slides through this not time area right here this is the only one you can really see good for not time you can see how interesting the knot-tying system is we're going to slow it way down for you here in a second so you can just see how it's wrapped each little piece of wire comes through is twist it around and cut right there boom and twist it right around now this isn't like red brand if you look at red brand fence after this the stuff that you get your tractor supply you'll see that the twist…
