A method for manufacturing a three-dimensional lattice truss structure using flexible wires, including: arranging a plurality of out-of-plane wires; forming crossing portions between the plurality of out-of-plane wires; inserting a plurality of in-plane wires in the crossing portions; translating the plurality of in-plane wires in the z-direction; and inserting boundary rods in the y- or x-direction inside the plurality of out-of-plane wire groups.

A composite thread cable for an aquaculture cage includes multiple multi-filament polyester fiber yarn wires and at least one or more than one copper alloy wire blending and interweaving with the multi-filament polyester fiber yarn wires. Each of the multi-filament polyester fiber yarn wires is made of flexible material. The at least one or more than one copper alloy wire is made of hard material. The at least one or more than one copper alloy wire is intertwined in the multi-filament polyester fiber yarn wires tightly and closely to construct the composite thread cable.

An edge finishing for a mesh formed by interlacing adjacent wire pickets, each picket formed in a zig-zag manner, the edge finishing comprising two interlinked loops where a first loop is formed from a first picket of the adjacent pickets and a second loop is formed from a second picket of the adjacent pickets, wherein the first loop and the second loop are interlocked together, via first and second loop-ends, at an intersection of the first picket and the second picket.

A device for manufacturing a weave, including a winder for reeling the manufactured weave to a rotating reel, wire spools arranged to release longitudinal wires to said winder, a wire spool carrier comprising a wheel and a slit extending through the wheel from a centre of the wire spool carrier to the circumference, an additional wire spool releasably attached to the wire spool carrier and arranged to release a crossing wire, and an actuator configured to move the wire spool carrier between the longitudinal wires such that the additional wire spool in turns moves to each longitudinal wire to a position where the respective longitudinal wire is located in said slit at which stage the wheel rotates around said respective longitudinal wire before moving towards a following longitudinal wire in such way that a predetermined path of the crossing wire from the additional wire spool forms the weave with the longitudinal wires from the wire spools.

A wire netting, in particular a safety net, with a plurality of helices which are braided with each other, of which at least one helix is bent from at least one single wire, a wire bundle, a wire strand, a wire rope and/or another longitudinal element with at least one wire, in particular comprises a high-tensile steel, the at least one helix having at least one first leg, at least one second leg as well as at least one bending region connecting the first leg and the second leg to each other, wherein the longitudinal element is bent at least substantially torsion-free in itself along a contour of the first leg and/or of the second leg.

A wire screening for classifying material. The screening may include a plurality of interwoven warp and weft wires where the weft wires are individually coated with a coating that expands and collapses to enhance performance and longevity of the screen. The coating of one or more weft wires may differ in at least one characteristic from the coating of one or more other weft wires. The warp wires can be individually coated to enhance performance and/or longevity of the screening. Binding blocks can be used in place of weft wires. The coating of one or more warp wires may differ in at least one characteristic from the coating of one or more other warp wires and/or one or more weft wires. The screening can include a plurality of uncoated weft and warp wires where the crimp depth of each wire forming each opening has a different crimp depth.
