FAQ — Machines, Delivery and Service | YILSA Machinery

Question 1

How long do manufacturing and delivery take after I order a machine?

Accepted Answer

Our machines are built to order. Delivery times are 8–10 weeks for uncoilers, 2.5–4 months for wheel weight lines and 8–10 months for cable tray production lines, depending on the project scope.

Question 2

Do you build machines for the specific sheet and profile sizes of our plant?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The R&D engineering team at YILSA Machinery designs and builds made-to-measure machines for customers' specific profiles, wire diameters and sheet thicknesses.

Question 3

What is the main advantage of Rotary Punch technology over conventional presses?

Accepted Answer

Rotary Punch punches coil sheet at 24 metres per minute without ever stopping it, quietly and with zero scrap. Unlike eccentric presses there is no stop-and-go motion, so production speed rises 4–6 times and energy consumption falls.

Question 4

Do you provide machine installation and on-site assembly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our machines are compact and designed to be plug-and-play; machine tests and hands-on assembly training take place at our plant in Denizli. If on-site installation at the customer's plant is requested, the travel and accommodation costs of the service staff are paid by the buyer.

Question 5

Do you provide operator training?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A 1-day hands-on assembly, operation and maintenance training is given at the YILSA factory, covering the PLC control panel, recipe changes, die settings and daily maintenance procedures.

Question 6

What is the warranty period and coverage for the machines?

Accepted Answer

The mechanical parts of our machines have a 1-year warranty. Labour and spare parts are free for failures caused by manufacturing or material defects. Dies and cutting blades are consumables subject to normal wear and are not covered by the warranty.

Question 7

How do you provide support in case of a breakdown?

Accepted Answer

We are there for our customers 24/7. We provide technical support and, when needed, on-site engineering support.

Question 8

What raw material does the wheel weight line use, and can it be sourced locally?

Accepted Answer

Our wire flattening system processes standard Ø8 mm steel wire rod (SAE 1006 / 1008), which is easy to find on the market. You do not need to look for special-size flat sheet; wire rod can be bought from local suppliers.

Question 9

What electrical power do the machines need and how much energy do they use?

Accepted Answer

Our machines run on 380 V / 220 V, 50 Hz three-phase power. The wire flattening machine has 11 kW and the chopping and marking machine 3 kW of AC motor power. With Rotary Punch technology, producing 100,000 wheel weights uses only 1.37 kWh of energy.

Question 10

How can I increase my production capacity later?

Accepted Answer

Our chopping and marking machine cuts 60,000 pieces per hour and can feed 4 taping machines at the same time. When you want more capacity, you can grow step by step by adding taping machines to the existing line, without investing in a new press or feeder line.

Question 11

How long do the cutting blades last and how are spare parts supplied?

Accepted Answer

The cutting blades are made of D2 (1.2379) cold-work tool steel; they can be replaced one by one or resharpened. A spare blade set can be supplied by YILSA in about 15 days.

Question 12

What are your payment terms?

Accepted Answer

For domestic sales in Türkiye, a 30% down payment is taken when the order is confirmed and the remaining 70% is paid before the machine leaves the factory. For exports, a 15–30% down payment applies, with an irrevocable letter of credit payable at sight (L/C at sight) for the balance.

Question 13

Do you help with shipping and export processes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Machines are packed in ISPM-15 wooden crates suitable for forklift handling. Through our partner logistics companies we offer CIF/CFR freight quotes for part (LCL) or full container (FCL) loads and support you through the export process up to delivery at the port.

Question 14

Do you also make coating machines for wheel weights?

Accepted Answer

No. YILSA builds the machines of the adhesive wheel weight production line; it does not make coating machines. Parts coming out of the chopping machine can be sent to subcontractors for galvanic coating.

Question 15

Do you also make cable trays and cable ladders?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Besides machines, YILSA manufactures perforated cable trays, heavy-duty cable ladders, tray wall brackets and ceiling hanger systems. The products are made of galvanised sheet.

Question 16

What sizes do your cable trays come in?

Accepted Answer

Cable trays and cable ladders are made 50–600 mm wide (up to 1000 mm as a special order), with 40–100 mm side height, 0.7–2.0 mm sheet thickness and a standard length of 2400 mm.

Question 17

How is the price of a cable tray determined?

Accepted Answer

The price depends on tray width, side height, sheet thickness, coating type, accessories and quantity in metres. With this information you can request a quote through our contact page.

Question 18

What is a roll forming machine and which roll forming machine does YILSA build?

Accepted Answer

A roll forming machine is a cold-forming machine that shapes sheet step by step into a profile by passing it through a series of bending stations. YILSA builds the 16–18 station Roll Forming Machine used in its cable tray production line: 50–600 mm tray width, 40–100 mm side height and motorised NC size adjustment without changing rollers.
