High quality bindings

The tensioning and twisting operation secures a firm, tight binding around the bundle.

High operational accessibility

The KNCA is designed to make operation and maintenance as ­hassle-free as possible.

Proven technology

The KNCA is a reliable workhorse in plants all around the world, with high availability.

Variable binding wire width

The machine can use binding wire of different diameter (6.0–8.0 mm) without any modifications.

Low maintenance

Few wear parts and easy access to service makes the KNCA very low-maintenance.

Robust design

Like all machines and handling systems from Sund Birsta, the KNCA is durable with a long life-span.

Operations of KNCA Binding Machine

The KNCA Binding Machine is designed for binding large bundles of bars and sections. It’s robust, made to perform in harsh industrial environments, giving the machine very high availability.

It also requires low maintenance, all of which makes the KNCA capable of meeting the requirements of most producers of large bundles, both in new applications and in existing plants.

As a bundle arrives at the binding position, the wire is already pre-fed into the wire guide system, which proceeds to close around the bundle.

The binding wire is tightened, wound together and cut, achieving a tight binding of the bundle. 

The machine can also perform double binding, either as two tight laps or as one tight and one loose lap.

Round and square bundles

The KNCA can produce both round and square bundles, making it a very versatile master binding machine.

Round bundle of bars

Exceptional tightening

By opening flaps one after another as the binding wire is stretched around the bundle, the wire can be wound exceptionally tight around square bundles.

Square bar

Wire guides that can be opened

Thanks to the wire guides being able to open, the KNCA can receive material both from the side and the front.

By adding a carriage, the KNCA can be moved between several binding positions.
