Industrial Spiral Tube Machine for Air Filter Support Mesh
Heavy-duty industrial spiral tube machine designed for rolling expanded metal mesh into air filter support cores. Equipped with a pneumatic circular blade tracking cutting system, a 4.5 kW motor, and a 90–420 mm tube diameter range. If you need wholesale expanded support mesh rolls to feed this coiler, please refer to our Filter Metal Mesh & Wire Mesh.
This high-efficiency Industrial Spiral Tube Machine is specifically designed for manufacturing both inner and outer support mesh tubes used in air filters and dust collection systems. It continuously rolls flat expanded metal mesh into extremely rigid spiral tubes, serving as the heavy-duty protective support frames inside industrial filter cartridges and air ventilation assemblies.
By adopting a advanced pneumatic circular blade tracking cutting system, the machinery guarantees smooth cutting edges without burrs, stable seam interlocking, and precise dimensional consistency. It is the perfect choice for high-volume filter factories seeking durable, automated core-forming equipment to handle medium-to-large-diameter mesh tubes.

Key Features & Mechanical Advantages
1. Pneumatic Circular Blade Tracking Cutter
Unlike traditional stop-and-cut mechanisms, this machine features an automated pneumatic circular blade that dynamically tracks the tube as it rolls. This continuous process delivers clean, perpendicular cuts and burr-free edges, facilitating easier downstream end-cap assembly.
2. Broad 90–420 mm Diameter Range
This coiling system supports a wide range of inner core and outer cage diameters. By performing quick adjustments on the forming head and rollers, operators can easily switch between automotive cabin filter cores and large-scale industrial dust collector frames.
3. Integrated Steel Seam Interlocking
The machine precisely interlocks and presses the seams of the expanded metal mesh. This creates a solid, spiral-reinforced mechanical lock that prevents the finished tube from expanding, collapsing, or deforming under high-pressure gas filtration.
4. Heavy-Duty Industrial Transmission
Built with premium hardened gears, an enclosed industrial gearbox, and a high-stability electric motor, the entire transmission system is engineered to withstand the persistent mechanical stress of cold-rolling steel expanded mesh.
Applications & Industrial Uses
This expanded metal spiral tube making machine is widely deployed in production lines producing:
- Industrial Air Filter Cartridges: Central support mesh cores for heavy-duty gas turbine intake filters.
- Dust Collector Systems: Rigid inner support frames for pleated dust collector cartridges.
- HVAC Panel Filter Supports: Protective outer metal mesh cages for commercial air handling units.

Frequently Asked Questions
A: This machine is optimized for expanded metal mesh with a thickness range of 0.4 mm to 0.6 mm. If you require standard raw mesh rolls to feed this machine, please check our Filter Metal Mesh & Wire Mesh category.
A: Yes, the broad 90–420 mm diameter range allows you to produce both small-diameter inner support cores and larger-diameter outer protective spiral tubes on the same machine.
A: The automatic circular tracking cutter operates pneumatically, requiring a stable working air pressure of approximately 0.6 MPa from your workshop’s air compressor.
