Automated installation of reinforcement in concrete beams - using W=shaped bar supports formed by relative vertical bar movement during installation

摘要: The reinforced concrete beam casting process incorporates automatic installation of the reinforcing bars and their supports. (A, B, C, E, F) are arranged in two layers before being inserted into mould (6), with B C) above (E F). A strip steel is automatically fed between cut to length. Press dies (16, 17) push downwards relative remaining (E, bending a W-shaped support (10). supports then lowered mould, lower angles resting on floor arms (11, 12) bearing against walls.
