The existing wire mesh clip forming process requires improvement as the production process is semi-automatic, which greatly threatens the safety of workers and exposes them to labor intensity and industrial accidents. In this research and development, we designed and developed an automated wire mesh automatic clip system by improving problems in the existing welded wire mesh production process. As a result, the production volume per hour was improved from 450 to 516, and the clip formation time was improved, shortening the production time to 42.5 seconds. Additionally, the defect rate was reduced from 7% to less than 3%.
