Three-Machine Integration: An Intelligent Production Solution Combining Pocket Spring Machines and Gluing Systems

As mattress production technology becomes increasingly automated and sophisticated, factories around the world are searching for ways to improve efficiency, reduce labor, and enhance product consistency. One of the most transformative developments I have observed is the growing adoption of three-machine linkage systems—an integrated production setup that combines pocket spring machines, pocket spring assembly equipment, and automated gluing machines into one continuous line. This intelligent combination represents a significant step toward Industry 4.0-level mattress manufacturing and has already reshaped production standards in many factories I’ve visited.

When I first encountered a fully linked three-machine system, I realized it solved several long-standing bottlenecks in mattress factories. These include inconsistent spring-unit quality, high labor dependence, production interruptions between machines, and inefficient workflows caused by manual transfer of spring units. By integrating the coiling machine, pocket assembly machine, and gluing machine into a synchronized line, manufacturers can achieve stable, high-volume output while maintaining strong control over precision and material usage.

In this article, I will explore the engineering logic behind three-machine integration, explain how it improves efficiency and product quality, describe the roles of each component machine, and highlight the operational advantages this system provides to modern mattress manufacturers. I will also include a detailed comparison table that illustrates the performance differences between traditional stand-alone machines and a fully linked intelligent system.

Why Mattress Factories Are Moving Toward Integrated Production

Traditional mattress factories often operate their pocket spring machines, assembly machines, and gluing stations as separate units. This creates unnecessary friction in workflow. Operators must manually transfer spring chains, reorder them, realign them, and perform repetitive tasks that increase labor cost and slow down production.

Factories upgrading to an integrated three-machine system typically face similar challenges beforehand:

irregular production timing between machines
product inconsistencies caused by manual handling
accumulation of spring units waiting for processing
higher labor requirements
greater material waste due to handling mistakes
unstable production output

As global demand grows and competition tightens, these inefficiencies make it difficult for factories to scale production smoothly. A three-machine linkage eliminates these issues by enabling continuous, automated flow from spring coiling to final gluing.

Understanding the Three-Machine Intelligent Integration System

A three-machine linked system includes:

（1）Pocket spring coiling machine
This machine produces springs, inserts them into non-woven fabric, and cuts them into pocket spring chains.

（2）Pocket spring assembly or row-welding machine
This machine aligns and joins individual rows of pocket springs into wider spring units.

（3）Full-automatic or semi-automatic gluing machine
This system bonds the assembled rows into a complete mattress core.

When these machines operate separately, factories must coordinate them manually. When linked, they form a unified, intelligent production line capable of self-adjusting flow rates, synchronizing operations, and improving consistency across all production stages.

How Each Machine Contributes to the Integrated Workflow

To understand how integration enhances performance, it is essential to analyze the roles of the individual machines.

（1）Pocket Spring Machine: The Source of Precision

The pocket spring machine is responsible for:

wire coiling
pocket welding
cutting
row shaping

In an integrated system, the spring machine’s output is synchronized with the downstream assembly machine. This prevents pile-ups and ensures a steady flow of rows.

A well-designed pocket spring machine ensures:

accurate spring height
consistent pitch
stable ultrasonic sealing
reduced fabric waste
