Introduction To Nail Making Machines

A nail-making machine (also known as a scrap steel rebar nail-making machine) is a mechanical device that uses scrap steel rebar and other metal wires as raw materials to produce round nails through processes such as wire drawing, forming, and polishing. It is widely used in construction, hardware manufacturing, and other fields. Major manufacturers include Yangzhou Hongsheng Machinery, Gongyi Huihong Machinery, and Yancheng Yanhuang Automation. This equipment adopts fully automatic shaping technology, supporting the production of round nails with lengths of 50-180 mm and diameters of 0.9-1.8 mm, with a production capacity of 450-500 nails per minute. It is also compatible with recycled materials such as scrap iron wire and cold-drawn wire, reducing raw material costs through rust removal and wire drawing processes.

Its core process includes four stages: wire drawing, nail making, polishing, and packaging. The wire drawing stage is highly adaptable to scrap steel rebar, while the polishing stage uses sawdust and paraffin wax to improve the smoothness of the nail surface. The equipment requires a 380-volt power supply and is equipped with safety devices such as protective covers. Operation requires three people working together and regular lubrication and maintenance. Some models utilize a PLC electrical control system, featuring high efficiency and energy saving, and can produce various nail types such as iron nails and nail gun nails. As a typical piece of equipment for small and medium-scale production, it is characterized by readily available raw materials and stable returns on investment. Its products cover more than 20 provinces and cities in China and are exported to Southeast Asia and other regions.
