Abstract

A process and installation for producing reinforcement wire meshes by welding longitudinal and transverse wires (L, Q) together at their crossing points, leaving ends (E) or the transverse wires projecting beyond the longitudinal edge wires using a continuous wire meshes welding machine, in which, in order to produce reinforcement wire meshes where at least one of the projecting ends or the transverse rods is bent back towards the longitudinal edge wire in the form or a loop and welded thereto, straight transverse wires are supplied, at least one of the ends in front of the weld line of the wire meshes welding machine is bent back in the form of a loop towards the longitudinal edge wire (L') and the loop end (S) is welded to the longitudinal edge wire in the weld line (C) at the same time as the longitudinal and transverse wires are welded together.
