Drills and tufts
If you are interested in producing technical or household brushes,
then a Z.WASP machine is a great advice. These semi-automatic
drilling and tufting machines are the ideal solution for manufacturing
cylindrical or disc brushes, plate, strip or tank brushes, brooms or
hairbrushes. With the frame quick exchangeable system, even
multiple models on the same machine are not an issue. Z.WASP:
Top quality from ZAHORANSKY made in Germany.

Highly efficient product and model changes
The Z.WASP family works with a frame exchange system: when the brush type changes,
a different frame is inserted into the machine. In a few cases, there are optional replacement
inserts for additional brush models.
The frame exchange system

There are frames (or inserts) available for nine
different product types in total. The overview
below shows which brush model can be
produced with which Z.WASP.
We will be pleased to provide you with the particular specifications. Why not give us a call?
Longer, uninterrupted production times
when manufacturing brushes with abrasive bristles
The ZAHORANSKY True Grit System combines long-lasting low-wear mechanisms with costeffective wearing parts that are quick to exchange.
They will enable you to extend your uninterrupted
production times.
At the same time, the wearing parts have been
designed to be faster and more cost-effective to
replace, keeping the machine in service for as long
as possible and minimizing down-times.
