Market Background

India has been accelerating investment in large-scale infrastructure over the past decade, particularly in river management, flood control, highway construction, and slope protection projects. These projects require massive volumes of gabion mesh that meet strict engineering standards while being delivered on tight schedules.

For local manufacturers, the main challenge is no longer basic production capacity, but the ability to maintain stable, continuous output at high speed without compromising mesh quality over long production cycles.

Customer Profile and Application Scenario

The customer is an Indian gabion manufacturer supplying government and EPC infrastructure projects, primarily focused on riverbank protection and highway slope stabilization. Their factory operates in a 24/7 production environment, where downtime, frequent manual adjustments, and inconsistent mesh geometry directly affect delivery commitments.

Before upgrading, the customer relied on semi-independent machines. While acceptable at low speed, the system struggled during continuous high-speed operation, resulting in uneven mesh, increased maintenance, and operator fatigue.

Our Solution: Full-Process CNC Gabion Production Line

To address these issues, JINLIDA supplied a full-process CNC gabion production line, designed as an integrated and synchronized system rather than a collection of standalone machines. The solution covers the complete workflow, including wire tensioning, CNC weaving, automatic cutting, winding, and edge processing.

The production line is engineered for long-term stability under high-load conditions, which is critical for infrastructure-oriented manufacturing in India. CNC control ensures consistent mesh geometry, while servo-driven transmission and heavy-duty mechanical structures support continuous operation with minimal manual intervention.

Key Technical Parameters (Reference Overview)

To support the customer’s production requirements, the system includes the following core specifications:

Working width: up to 5300 mm

Production speed: ≥ 32 mesh holes per minute

Control system: CNC / PLC with touch-screen interface

Drive system: Servo motors with planetary reducers

Main structural material: Nodular cast iron

Safety & automation: Automatic stop on wire break, infrared protection, automatic lubrication

These parameters ensure stable performance during long production runs and reduce the risk of cumulative mechanical deviation.

Customer Feedback

After installation and commissioning, the production line entered stable operation. According to the customer, the most noticeable improvements were consistent mesh quality, reduced downtime, and simplified operation logic. The factory achieved predictable daily output, even during continuous multi-shift production, which improved planning and delivery reliability for infrastructure projects.

Maintenance frequency was also reduced, allowing operators to focus more on production management rather than constant adjustments.

Conclusion

This project demonstrates how a full-process CNC gabion production line can effectively support India’s infrastructure manufacturing demands. By focusing on system-level stability, automation, and long-term reliability, the solution helped the customer transition from speed-focused production to engineering-grade, continuous manufacturing.

As infrastructure projects continue to expand across India, integrated CNC gabion systems are becoming a key factor in maintaining quality, efficiency, and competitiveness in large-scale production environments.
