Semi-Automatic Honeycomb Air Filter Coiling Machine
Industrial-grade semi-automatic honeycomb air filter coiling machine designed for precise circular and oval filter winding. Features an intelligent PLC system with touchscreen HMI, automatic tension control, and integrated hot-melt adhesive application. Before the winding process, the filter media can be precisely prepared using our Precision CNC Knife Pleating Machine to guarantee exact pleat depths and zero-defect structural integrity.
This professional Honeycomb Air Filter Coiling Machine is the central winding and assembly unit engineered for manufacturing heavy-duty honeycomb air filters, round vehicle cabin filters, and heavy-duty truck air filter elements. It precisely rolls pre-embossed filter paper or non-woven media into tight, stable circular or oval structural shapes, applying uniform hot-melt adhesive lines during the coiling process to lock the hexagonal cells in place.
Equipped with an automatic tension feedback system, a high-sensitivity touchscreen HMI, and an integrated adhesive dispensing unit, this coiling machine guarantees tight tolerances, uniform density, and robust collapse resistance. It is the ideal machinery for filter factories seeking to automate their air purifier and vehicle intake filter production lines with high efficiency and minimum material waste.

Key Features & Mechanical Advantages
1. Precision Spiral Coiling and Tension Control
The coiler incorporates an advanced pneumatic tension feedback controller that keeps the filter paper flat and consistently tensioned throughout the rolling cycle. This prevents common winding defects such as media wrinkling, air gaps, or “telescoping” inside the finished filter element.
2. Integrated Hot-Melt Adhesive Application
During the coiling process, the integrated dispensing unit applies precise strips of hot-melt glue directly onto the moving filter paper. This ensures that the pleated honeycomb cells bond firmly, significantly improving the mechanical rigidity and pressure resistance of the finished element.
3. Smart Touchscreen HMI Controls
The centralized PLC system enables operators to adjust winding speed, target diameter thresholds, cutting signals, and adhesive dispensing intervals directly on the touchscreen. This digital control simplifies setup and shortens production changeover times between different filter sizes.
4. Robust Construction for Industrial Durability
Built with a rigid, vibration-damping steel frame and chrome-hardened coiling shafts, this machine supports continuous, high-volume production schedules with minimal maintenance requirements and maximum mechanical longevity on the factory floor.

Frequently Asked Questions
A: This coiling machine is specifically designed to produce heavy-duty honeycomb air filters (also called insert filters), spin-on fuel filter elements, and round or oval air filters widely used in heavy-duty trucks and industrial air purification systems.
A: Yes, the winding diameter is fully adjustable up to 330 mm, and the effective material width can range from 50 to 330 mm. Custom configurations for larger sizes are available upon request.
A: Yes, the glue dispensing system is fully synchronized with the coiling motor’s speed. As the winding speed accelerates or slows down, the adhesive output adjusts proportionally to maintain uniform gluing thickness.
