Shear lines and automatic benders
Rebar fed processing centres for production of straight bar cut-to-length, stirrup and bent bar.

CUT & BEND
Our machines have been purposefully designed to fulfill all possible requirements for steel wire processing whether out at the building sites or in workshop and production environments.
By virtue of their electronic programming systems, the P series bi-directional bending machines allow work cycles with up to 20 different bending angles to be carried out. In addition, the P40 ECS model allows the operator to choose from and produce 74 pre-memorised shapes. The T245 shear is a machine to cut wire from bars for use in steel-reinforced concrete; it comprises a single block of steel derived from a single fusion and characterised by an oil bath gear system. The CAL132 and CAL160 ring-making machines allow the production of different-dimension rings, spirals, and even only partially curved segments.

SUPERFLEX 32-40
Electronically programmable plant for the production of cut-to-length bars. Thanks to the exclusive solutions offered by the various models within the range, the SUPERFLEX system allows maximum production flexibility reducing manual intervention by the operator during the work cycle and thus guaranteeing enhanced production, precision and quality of the final product.
The exclusive extraction and feeding unit supplied with an anti-slide system allows more bars to be fed simultaneously which guarantees maximum precision. The unique structure of the patented independent steel ring feeding rollers prevents sliding among bars of slightly differing diameter and hence prevents the consequent diminuition of precision in measurement.
Possibility to unload the bars at any particular pre-determined point along the rollerway. Once the production cycle has been programmed, the bars are automatically cut and deposited at the different positions along the entire allowed length (12m) of the rollerway.

One or more bars processed, according to their diameters: from 6 to 40mm (6-32 for the Superflex 32).
Minimum cut length: 800mm.
Maximum cut length: 12000mm (other dimensions on request with consequent price implications).

Flexiplus
Electronically-programmable automatic plant for the production of cut-to-length bars. The “Flexiplus” system may be used for dedicated production of cut-to-length bars or may be integrated with an automatic bar-shaping unit such as our “CS 40” or with simple manually-operated benders coupled to work benches: in either case a complete rebar production centre is the result. Manual operator intervention during the processes of cut bar transfer to collection or bending stations is completely eliminated.

High flexibility within the ambit of possible solutions guarantees maximum productivity with minimum personnel requirements. The exclusive extraction and feeding unit, fitted with an anti-slip device allows simultaneous feeding of more bars, always maintaining maximum precision. The particular structure of the independent rings comprising the feeding rollers (patented) eliminates all slipping between the bars which can usually result from even the slightest differences in diameter with consequent diminuition in the measurement precision.

Diameters processed (one or more bars according to the diameters used) from 6 to 40mm.
Minimum cut length: 700mm.
Maximum cut length: 12m (other dimensions on request).

CUT LINE
Electronically-programmable automatic plant for the cutting-to-length of rebar in bar form, conceived for an optimized management of the cut-product storage and movement.
The automation of the movement and storage phases which are intermediate between the cutting unit and a possible bending/shaping plant allow optimization of the cutting capacity with no interruption to the work cycle. The operator no longer needs to spend time on many of the operations required with a traditional shear line and can devote all his time to the supply of bars to the CUT LINE, with a concomitant doubling of plant utilization and production.
The CUT LINE installation can be integrated with either an automatic bar bending/shaping unit such as the “CS 40” or with simple manual benders coupled to work benches, allowing the development of a complete bar processing centre.
The exclusive extraction and feeding unit, fitted with an anti-slip device allows simultaneous feeding of more bars, always maintaining maximum precision. The particular structure of the independent rings comprising the feeding rollers (patented) eliminates all slipping between the bars which can usually result from even the slightest differences in diameter with consequent diminuition in the measurement precision.

Diameter range processed with one or more bars, according to the diameters used, from 8 to 40 mm.
minimum cutting length: 0,8 m;
maximum cutting length: 12 m (other dimensions available on request).

CS 40/45
Electronically-programmable automatic plant for the production of stirrups and medium to large sized shapes, with bends at one or both ends. Adopting solutions which are exclusive with respect to the various models in the range, the "CS 40" and "CS 45" bending systems allow maximum production flexibility, reducing the manual intervention by the operator during the production cycle and hence guaranteeing enhanced production, precision and quality of the final product.
In the model which has two mobile bending units, the shaping is achieved by a series of actions carried out by the bending spindles coordinated with the central clamp. The simpler version, denoted "SX", has one mobile bending unit; in this case the action of the central clamp is carried out by the lateral pins which, as well as being the forming elements of the bends, are capable of blocking the bars by a rotational movement, and allow the positioning of the mobile bending unit or of the bars themselves as required by the bending cycle.

Diameters ranging from 6 mm to 45 mm (6 to 40mm in the CS40 model) can be processed.
Distance between the spindle axes of the two bending units: minimum 1100mm (version "SX"), 1500mm (version "CS"); maximum 12000mm (other domensions available on request).

CS 440 - CS 440 SX
Electronically-programmable automatic plant for the production of stirrups and medium to large sized shapes, with bidirectional bends at one or both ends. Adopting solutions which are exclusive with respect to the various models in the range, the “CS440” (equipped with two mobile bending units) and “CS440 SX” (equipped with one fixed and one mobile bending unit) allow maximum production flexibility, reducing the manual intervention by the operator during the production cycle and hence guaranteeing enhanced production, precision and quality of the final product.
