Automatic Pointing–Drawing–Straightening Line Eliminates Manual Transfer and Enhances Operator Safety
Integrated conveyor moves material directly from the drawing process to the straightener infeed rack – with a protective safety cover for curved or shifting stock. The result: lower labor costs, continuous production, and a safer workplace.
DONGGUAN, China – September 22, 2026 – FangRong Precision Machinery today highlighted its fully automatic line that connects the pointing process, drawing process, and straightening process into one continuous workflow. After pointing and drawing, the material automatically passes to the infeed rack of the straightening machine via a conveyor – no manual handling required.
The system is designed for metal tube and bar producers who want to reduce labor dependency, improve production efficiency, and protect operators from the safety risks associated with handling curved or unstable material during straightening.
How the Automatic Line Works
Pointing – The tube or bar end is prepared for drawing.
Drawing – The material is cold drawn to the required dimensions.
Automatic transfer – A conveyor moves the drawn material directly to the straightener infeed rack.
Straightening – The material is straightened to the required tolerance.
Exit – Finished material moves to the outfeed and collecting rack.
No manual transfer is required between drawing and straightening. The operator simply supervises the line.
Key Benefits
Benefit | How It Helps |
Saves labor costs | No need to manually transfer each piece to the straightener |
Improves efficiency | Continuous, automated flow from pointing to drawing to straightening |
Enhances operator safety | Safety cover on the straightener infeed rack protects workers from shaking or dangerous material during straightening, especially when the material is curved |
Reduces handling damage | Guided conveyor transfer minimizes scratches, dents, and surface defects |
Supports consistent quality | Stable transfer and straightening conditions improve batch-to-batch repeatability |
Safety Cover on the Straightener Infeed Rack
One of the most important features of this automatic line is the safety cover on the straightener infeed rack. During straightening, curved material can shake, whip, or shift unexpectedly. This is especially true when the incoming material has significant bend or twist. The protective cover shields operators from moving material, reducing the risk of injury and allowing the line to run safely at higher speeds.
