The Gabion Box Machine is a fully automated production solution for weaving hexagonal
double-twist wire mesh, assembling gabion panels, and manufacturing
complete gabion baskets (2×1×1 m, 3×1×1 m, etc.), widely used in
river protection, retaining walls, and slope reinforcement. Our
equipment is designed to deliver precise mesh structure, continuous production, and stable output, ensuring maximum strength and durability.
Key Features & Factory Advantages
Wide Working Width & Adjustable Mesh Sizes
Engineered to weave gabion meshes from 60×80 mm to 120×150 mm, with customizable widths spanning 3 m to 5.7 m, this machine offers flexibility for standard 2×1×1 m and 3×1×1 m gabion boxes.
High-Speed, Automated Operation
Equipped with PLC or servo-motion control, spindle speeds reach up
to 20–25 r/min, delivering mesh production rates up to 225–255 m/h. Combined with features like automatic lubrication and broken-wire
detection, it ensures uninterrupted high-efficiency
operations.
Robust Performance and Reliable Build
Designed for heavy-duty applications, the machine handles 2.0 mm–4.0 mm wire diameters—including galvanized, galfan, and PVC-coated
options—ensuring durability in demanding environments.
Factory-Integrated Parts Manufacturing
We control the entire production process—all components are manufactured in-house, eliminating quality discrepancies from outsourced
suppliers.
Global Standards & Comprehensive Support
With ISO and CE certifications, we meet export-quality standards. Every machine comes standard
with a 12-month warranty, optional on-site installation, and spare parts supplied at cost.
