Today, the most popular fasteners are nails, which are in great demand among people. They are used both in domestic situations and in construction. In this regard, we can say that they are able to bring manufacturers a very good income. Making nails can be both large-scale and not quite so. It all depends on what kind of down payment the manufacturer intends to make in this project. As raw materials for production, ordinary wire is used. The main aspect for a good start to the business is the presence of people who will supply this wire at a not too high cost.
In order for our own production to be excellent, you will need to rent or purchase a room and buy a machine for the production of nails. Suppliers usually sell raw materials in the form of a bobbin, whose weight reaches about one ton. As raw materials, low-carbon steel wire is mainly used. If there is a machine tool, material and room, then the production of nails does not require large physical costs. For production, it is necessary to have such a wire-nailing machine, which differs in the following characteristics:
1. The diameter of one rod reaches about six millimeters.
2. The length of the produced nail can range from twelve to 320 millimeters.
3. In one minute, the machine can produce from one hundred to six hundred pieces.
4. The power of the machine is capable of reaching up to 20 kW.
5. The weight of the machine varies from one to two tons.
The machine for the production of nails works as follows: wire is fed to the input of the machine, after which it is cut in the right place at the right angle. The edge will subsequently be on the cutting line. After exposure to the other end of the workpiece, a hat appears. In principle, the manufacturing process does not differ in increased complexity. The cost of the machine starts from one hundred thousand rubles. The room for the production of nails can also be equipped with a special device for unwinding wire from a bobbin.
In the event that it is planned to start production that is not too large, then for good functioning it will not be necessary to hire a large number of people, only two employees will be enough. In addition, additional education from the workers will not be required, since the machine for the production of nails operates in a semi-automatic mode.
The cost of production will be formed from the initial price of raw materials purchased. Typically, one bobbin of wire is estimated at an average of 23 thousand rubles. The diameter of the wire and the mass of the bobbin in this case is one millimeter and, accordingly, seven hundred kilograms. For electricity, it will be necessary to pay about three thousand rubles a month. About a small amount of production will cost about twenty thousand rubles for the employee’s salary. About nine thousand rubles will go for renting a room per month. If we take into account the factor that the cost of one nail is about ten rubles, then a month for the production of nails will produce about three and a half tons of material. In order for a business idea to pay off at least in one year, it will be necessary to produce about four tons of products per month.
