THE BUYER'S GUIDE / SELECTION
Choosing a Fiberglass Mesh Machine: Opening Size, Yarn and Application Checks
A buyer-focused guide to selecting a fiberglass mesh machine line from Anping Hongke Wire Mesh Machinery Factory. It covers the three machines in the line (warping, weaving and glue coating), the mesh density range, widths and model types, and coating oven heating options.
Application: fiberglass mesh for construction wall reinforcement, including external wall insulation systems
Opening size: documented maximum density of 14 mesh per inch; production range 10 × 10 to 2 × 2 mesh
Width and model: 1 m and 2 m widths and other sizes; 150, 230, 255, 285, 300 and 330 Type
Line composition: warping machine, weaving machine and glue coating machine
Machine parameters: listed size, power, weight and speed for the warping and weaving machines
Coating oven heating method: electric or natural gas, generally 180–200 degrees
Choosing a Fiberglass Mesh Machine: Opening Size, Yarn and Application Checks
When you buy a fiberglass mesh machine, you are usually buying a production line, not one machine. The product description from Anping Hongke Wire Mesh Machinery Factory says that making fiberglass mesh takes three kinds of machines: a warping machine, a weaving machine and a glue coating machine. This guide goes through the selection points that the published product information covers. It also flags what you still need to confirm with the supplier.
1. Start with the application
According to the product information, fiberglass mesh is often used in construction to reinforce walls, especially in external wall insulation systems, where it helps the wall surface stay stable and strong. If your target product is wall reinforcement mesh, this line matches the application described in the source.
When this recommendation does not apply: the site lists a separate Aluminum Wire Mesh Weaving Machine for buyers who want to make aluminum alloy window screens. That line consists of a warping machine and a weaving machine for aluminum wire. Its listed mesh ranges are 30-6 mesh and 10-32 mesh. Don't treat the two lines as interchangeable. Pick the line that matches the material you will process.
2. Opening size (mesh density)
The opening size is set mainly by the weaving machine. The published description states:
- After technical upgrades, the weaving machine can reach a maximum density of 14 mesh (14 holes per inch).
- It can produce mesh from 10 × 10 down to 2 × 2.
- The description calls the mesh surface flat and production efficiency high.
Buyer check: give the supplier the exact mesh count your customers need and confirm that it falls within the range. If you need anything denser than 14 mesh, it is not supported.
3. Yarn and wire diameter: confirm before ordering
Opening size and yarn specification together determine the final mesh, so ask for written confirmation of:
- the yarn type and diameter or count range the warping and weaving machines can handle;
- whether the yarn you plan to use will run at your target mesh density.
This article does not state any yarn diameter figures, because the source gives none.
4. Width and machine model
The product excerpt says the line comes in 1 m and 2 m widths and other sizes. Both the warping and weaving machines are listed as the 150, 230, 255, 285, 300 and 330 Type. Match the model to the finished roll width you plan to sell, and get the exact working width of each model confirmed in your quotation.
5. Compare the machine parameters
| Item | Warping machine | Weaving machine |
|---|---|---|
| Function | Winds glass fiber yarn evenly onto a warp shaft in a set order and tension, supplying warp yarn to the weaving machine | Weaves warp and weft yarns into mesh fabric |
| Tension / clutch | 40 kg magnetic powder brake | 45 kg magnetic powder clutch |
| Controls and protection | Photoelectric protection, infrared stop, Hongke control system | Tiger King electric control |
| Machine size | L4 m × W1.75 m × H1.25 m | L4 m × W1.8 m × H1.45 m |
| Power | 7.5 kW | 1.5 kW |
| Weight | 1.5 tons (excluding yarn rack) | 1.75 tons |
| Speed | 1,200–1,500 m per hour winding | 135–165 times per minute |
Use these figures to plan floor space, power supply and handling. Check them against the specific model in your quotation, because the source lists a single set of parameters for several model types.
6. Glue coating machine and finishing
The coating machine finishes the mesh. It applies glue evenly to the woven fabric, then dries, shapes, winds and packs it. It has four parts: glue tray, oven, storage rack and winding rack. Selection points from the description:
- Coating uniformity: after dipping, the mesh is squeezed under tension so the glue spreads evenly.
- Oven heating: you can choose electric heating or natural gas heating. Choose based on the energy supply at your plant. The listed working temperature is generally 180–200 degrees, with automatic adjustment control.
- Winding: 10 kg magnetic powder control, tension inflation shaft, winding cutter, automatic flipping and winding, automatic inflation and photoelectric correction.
7. What this guide does not cover
Quick selection checklist
- Your end product is fiberglass mesh, for example wall reinforcement mesh, and not aluminum window screen.
- Your required mesh count falls within the 10 × 10 to 2 × 2 range, with a maximum of 14 mesh per inch.
- The yarn diameter or count has been confirmed by the supplier.
- The model type matches the roll width you need.
- The oven heating method matches your energy supply.
- Your floor space and power supply suit the listed machine sizes and power ratings.
