What is difference between spring machine and spring former

At present, spring machines and spring forming machines have become one of the indispensable equipment in the metal forming industry, because these two types of equipment are machines for bending and forming steel wires and iron wires, and major companies want to realize their business through automation equipment. Transformation and upgrading, so what are the differences between spring machine and spring forming machine?
  The difference between spring machine and spring forming machine is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
        1. The spring forming machine can fold wires and stainless steel wires into flat or three-dimensional shapes, and generally can produce curved products of 3-12mm wire. The spring machine is mainly used for the processing and production of various springs, and fewer spring machines can produce products with a diameter of 8mm or larger;
        2. The spring machine can be used for steel wire and iron wire forming, but the spring forming machine cannot produce springs. Many wire forming products are mainly straightened and the angle is cut. Speed ​​and stability are required. Special forming machines are better than spring machines. Meet the requirements of speed and stability, which can better meet the needs of mass production lines;
        3. The spring forming machine only focuses on the field of wire forming, which can reduce the error parameter to ±0.1mm. It is suitable for various high-precision parts and has a price advantage compared with the spring machine.
