The Legend Lives On

The ZO 26 is the advanced version of the globally successful WAFIOS ZO machines for the series production of extension springs with different loop shapes of up to 1.6 mm wire diameter. The machine concept has been completely redesigned based on decades of experience. It stands for maximum reliability and highest outputs in the production of extension springs while ensuring 100% quality control.
The standard ZO 26 machine consists of a coiling machine and a directly attached construction for the bending of loops. The coiling machine has been designed for the production of right-hand coiled springs and features three axes (for the feed unit, the coiling unit and the straight cut). The directly attached construction consists of two transport turrets with four axes (2x stroke/2x rotation) and an additional transfer station (for the bending of loops, for measuring). The two-channel sorting device is included in the standard machine. Looping plates and tools from predecessor machines are compatible with the new ZO machine and make it a secure investment when changing to this new and more powerful machine technology.
