Straightening, cutting and bending machines

Cut and bend automatons

The tried and tested multi-rotor straightening technology, the flying shears, precision formers and robust bending heads ensure precise, gentle straightening, cutting and bending. This guarantees consistently exceptional quality final production.

Simultaneous double bending means higher output

Automatic change of bending matrix

Maximum bending capacity up to 2 x 20 mm and 1 x 25 mm 

Single-rotor straightening machines

The ESR series single-rotor straightening machines are equipped with a single rotor suited to the given wire diameter. This all-round machine was designed for use in factories which place a premium on flexible production while still maintaining high production output.

The rotor straightening system and the wire run-off are designed according to customer specifications and allow you to produce not only straight bars, but also a variety of bars with bending run-off.

Multi-rotor straightening machines

The MSR and Twin MSR series straightening/bending machines work off coil and thus optimize the flow of production. Low storage costs and easier material handling boost cost-effective production. Coupling the machines with a double-bending unit with automatic former changeover transforms the machinery into a multi-functional, high-performance coil-processing station for the production of rebar material and stirrups.

Bars

Steel bar or mesh is used to produce reinforcement for precast concrete elements. The bars have a ribbed surface, which ensures optimum interlinking with the concrete. Reinforcement bars are processed either as bar material or direct from the coil. Steel bar is available in diameters from 6 to 40 mm. Bars can be linked together into cages or mesh either by a weaving process with linking material (fastening) or by being welded. They can be straight, or bent single-sided or multi-sided.
