One machine, two fence knots

The FLM: the world's only fabricated fence machine that runs two knot types.

The patented Fence Lokk Machine produces both the Fixed Lokk and the Stay Lokk knot on a single machine, with minimal downtime when you change between them.

Order the FLM with one set of tooling for a single knot type, or a second set to run both.

The patented FLM is the only wire fence machine in the world that can produce both the Fixed Lokk and the Stay Lokk knot on a single machine, with minimal downtime when you change between them.

Every knot is individually twisted, so the line and stay wires are never damaged and the fence is tighter and more uniform than other methods produce. The modular design allows fast specification changeovers and quick removal of components for scheduled maintenance.

One machine, two fence knots

Why it runs, and keeps running.

Built for strength and permanence, and built so a changeover never costs you a shift. Every system on the FLM is designed around uptime.

Key capabilities
  • Dual end wire feed produces two fences at once and cuts specification change time.
  • Automated crimp drum and dual stay feed give rapid changeovers when specs change often.
  • Roll shuffle layers the fence so knots do not stack, keeping the roll compact.
  • Auto roll stripping clamp removes finished rolls so production continues without stopping.
  • Rockwell Automation with Kinetix 5700 servo, integrated PLC safety, light curtains, laser scanner and RFID guard sensing.
  • On machine reporting of faults, run hours and history, sent to any device.

The FLM in action

Built on the factory floor.

Two knots, one platform

The difference is in the knot.

Run one knot type, or both. The FLM is the only machine that lets you choose without changing machines.

Fixed Lokk knot - a rigid, high-tension wrapped knot locking the line and stay wires
Fixed Lokk

A rigid, high-tension wrapped knot that locks the line and stay wires firmly together - built for strength and permanence.

Stay Lokk knot - a flexible hinge-joint knot that absorbs impact and springs back
Stay Lokk

A compact knot designed for animal containment and reduced visual impact.
