Steel reinforcement
Industry profile
Rebar fabrication involves the production of steel bars and welded wire mesh, which are used to reinforce concrete in structures such as buildings, bridges, and infrastructure projects.
Steel reinforcement increases the strength and durability of concrete, which is essential for ensuring the safety and longevity of constructions.
Challenges and characteristics
To manufacture reinforcement, steel bars are cut to the specified length using automated shearing machines.
They are then shaped into various forms (such as hooks, stirrups, or spirals) according to project requirements. This forming process is carried out using CNC machines, which bend and curve the steel bars with high precision.
For certain applications, steel bars are assembled into welded wire mesh, a prefabricated reinforcement grid commonly used in concrete slabs and walls. These meshes are produced by welding the bars together at their intersection points using automated machines. In some cases, reinforcement assemblies are prefabricated in sections at the factory before being transported to the construction site.
This approach saves time and improves installation accuracy on site.
The rebar industry widely use automation for shearing, bending, and welding steel bars. Automated machines enable the production of reinforcement with high precision and efficiency, while reducing production costs.
Robots are also used to assemble welded meshes, where uniform and repetitive welding is essential. Manual welding is less common in this industry, but it is still used for complex assemblies or custom work that requires special attention to detail.
This may include specific joints or welds in non-standard configurations that cannot be easily achieved by machines.
The steel reinforcement industry operates in an environment where automated and robotic welding is predominant. Operators working in the same workshop as automated and robotic welding machines may be exposed to pollutants generated by the welding process. Harmful particles spread throughout the workshop and can be inhaled by employees, potentially leading to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases.
ENGMAR offers solutions for manual, automated, and robotic welding.
