Rebar bending machines are usually used for accuracy of bending angles. The machine is suitable for bending wide varieties of steel bars, TMT, and reinforcement bars etc used in construction. It is capable of bending the toughest rebars and its application is very extensive. The machine is suitable for contractors or construction companies to carry out different operations on rebar according to their requirements. It contains long steel shafts that can require bending before being used in construction. Different types of bender machines are applied for bending the rebar in the construction industry. All the types of bender differ in design and engineering, strength, technology and use. Apart from bending steel bars, the different machines also provide unique functions and capabilities based on the task that is needed to perform. It can be used for construction industry for scaffolding safety hooks, ceiling hook, concrete as well as in the railway industry including railway clips, etc.
Advantages of rebar bending machines
Bar bending makes it possible for workers to target every other aspect of the job, and enable the device to achieve this tedious work. Its advantages include;
- Manufactured with electrical and mechanical components that perform the bending task in a structured manner
- Increases the speed of your work and cuts down the time taken for bending
- Facilitates to doing multiple jobs in a day and gives you more time for other work.
- Reduces the chances of accidents and further injuries due to its speedy cutting ability. The latest models have safety options that help to manage the heat and pressure during cuts.
- They are highly portable and easily moveable
- Enables you to do multi-task jobs within a short period as it has high capacity cutting tools
- The bending equipment, compactly structured achieves accurate bending
- Can bend in wide varieties of arcs between 0 to 180 degrees for various construction purposes
- Speeds up the operations while offering greater quality in bending
- Automatic bend TMT bars into different angles between 0°and 180°according to different needs
- Bend TMT bars with different diameters
Types of rebar bending machines
Portable Rebar Bender
A heavy-duty portable rebar bender is capable of executing rebar bends accurately without damaging the strength of the metal rods. This strong electrical-mechanical bender has two preset angle locks for repeating the same angle bend. They are easy to use and carry. They are applied in reinforced-concrete construction which can bend rebars in angles based on the design needs. Portable benders can bend different sizes and grades of rebar. Latest models This strong electrical-mechanical bender has two preset angle locks for repeating the same angle bend
Electric Rebar Bender
This kind of machine can bend a steel rod bar into different angles and arcs according to various needs. Electric rebar bending machines are designed scientifically. The compact structure makes it have strong durability. These are widely applied in reinforced-concrete construction which can bend rebars in various arcs and angles based on the design needs. Electric benders can bend different sizes and grades of rebar. This type of bender is electrically powered and are convenient to use.
Hydraulic Rebar Bender
Hydraulic rebar bender and straightener. It helps save valuable man-hours by cleanly and efficiently bending or straightening bent rebar. It functions as a simple 90-degree portable electric rebar bender. Different sizes and diameters of rebars that range from 4 mm to 60 mm can bend using a hydraulic rebar bender. This bender bends the steel bars uniformly and accurately. It’s portable and versatile enough to bend or straighten rebar in place with its push/pull hydraulic capabilities. It can bend a 90-degree angle and its bending head also rotates 360 degrees.
Automatic Rebar Bender
The latest automatic rebar bender cones attached with the servo system can automatically accomplish rebar feeding, straightening, bending and cutting working. The machine could continuously bend various stirrup figures and is used to produce rebar hook and stirrup products in construction, bridge, high-speed road and rebar fabricate plants. The machine is used for straightening and bending TMT bars used on construction projects. It can automatically complete the straightening, sizing, bending, cutting, and other processes. The end products can be any size and shape as per customer requirement and the production quantity also can be set.
Conclusion
The rebar machine is very easy to use and it is also convenient which means you can use it whenever and however you want. This machine is used in the construction industry. It speeds up the amount of time it takes to bend the rebar. There are multiple types of machines that you can choose from. The size of the machine is going to depend on how much rebar you need to bend as discussed above.
