UMC Innovation BLR-4000 Series Barb Lokk Machine

The only machine in the world capable of production speeds of 400 barbs per minute of barb wire.

The UMC Innovation BLR‑4000 Barb Lokk Machine is a dedicated high‑tensile reverse twist barbed wire machine engineered for consistent, high‑speed production. Its mechanics and automation work seamlessly together to deliver significant productivity gains.

The compact, efficient design maximises output while optimising factory floor space, making the BLR‑4000 well suited to high‑volume manufacturing environments.

Machine Function & Design

  • Machine Speed

    The machine’s mechanics and automation are engineered to operate in complete harmony at the highest speed possible, delivering significant production gains of 400 barbs per minute.

  • Vertical Manufacturing

    Rolls are manufactured vertically. Integrated layering with minimal footprint for increased ergonomics for roll handling.

  • Production Metrics

    Reporting module provides for Machine displayed operational status including faults, run hours, mechanical history. Mobile device compatible with remote distribution of reports.

  • Variable Barb Length

    Adjustable to meet ASTM 121.

  • Variable Twist Rate

    Operator adjustable via HMI.

  • 2.pt and 4.pt Barb
