Fine Wire Micro-Braiding: Mastering Tension and Variable Pitch on MMBT16CHFWB

Mastering Fine-Wire Micro-Braiding on MMBT16CHFWB

Discover how MMBT16CHFWB 16-Carrier Horizontal Fine Wire Braider eliminates wire chatter and tension spikes using precision ceramic carriers, 10-segment programmable recipes, and a built-in bobbin winder. Engineered for ultra-quiet operation at 80 dB, this system delivers consistent repeatability for complex catheter development.

🚀 Engineering Breakthrough: World's First 11-Micron Stainless Steel Braid

Pushing the absolute boundaries of micro-manufacturing, our horizontal fine-wire braiders successfully achieve an ultra-fine 11-micron stainless steel braid. This technological milestone unlocks unprecedented precision for next-generation medical micro-catheters, aerospace micro-sensors, and specialized electronics.

Engineering Mechanics & Tension Control

When braiding ultra-fine medical wires—such as 304V stainless steel or Nitinol—maintaining uniform tension is critical to preventing scrap. MMBT16CHFWB features precision black carriers equipped with ceramic rollers that drastically minimize sliding friction. Combined with 10-segment programmable recipes managed through an intuitive multilingual HMI, process engineers can seamlessly adjust pick counts and speed transitions on the fly.
