Working Principle

Hydraulic Rebar Spiral Bender operates through a combination of mechanical systems and automated controls to deliver precise spiral or circular bends in steel bars. The bending process is programmable, allowing users to set specific angles and arcs for consistent, high-precision results.

Key Components:

  • Driving and Passive Wheels
    Steel bars are fed through the entry port, with wheel spacing adjusted according to bar diameter. The active wheel drives the bar into position, enabling fast and accurate bending operations.

  • Interchangeable Bending Molds
    A variety of bending molds can be swapped in and out to accommodate different steel bar diameters and bending shapes—offering versatility for diverse project requirements.

  • Control System
    A smart control system governs bending speed and angle, ensuring precise, repeatable outcomes and minimizing operator intervention.

Applications

Hydraulic Rebar Spiral Bender is widely used in industries that demand precision in forming curved or spiral steel reinforcement:

  • Infrastructure Construction
    Used for shaping steel bars into spirals or circles for buildings, bridges, tunnels, and other structural elements.

  • Bridge Engineering
    Enables accurate bending of rebar into complex shapes to meet the specific load and design requirements of modern bridge construction.

Operation & Maintenance Guide

1. Mechanical Inspection Before Use

  • Ensure all mechanical components are functioning properly.

  • Verify that the workbench is level and stable to prevent operational errors.

2. Mold Installation

  • Install the appropriate mandrel, forming shaft, or variable stop frame according to the steel bar’s diameter.

  • The mandrel’s diameter should be at least 2.5 times the bar diameter to avoid material stress or deformation.

3. Safety Checks

  • Inspect the mandrel, stopper, and turntable for signs of wear, damage, or cracks.

  • Confirm that the protective cover is securely in place before starting the machine.

4. Operation Guidelines

  • Insert the steel bar into the turntable gap, making sure one end is securely positioned against the machine body.

  • Do not adjust the mandrel or speed settings while the machine is in operation to avoid equipment failure or injury.

5. Run Empty Before Use

  • Perform a no-load test run to check that all components operate normally before feeding steel bars for bending.

By adhering to these operational and maintenance procedures, the Hydraulic Rebar Spiral Bender guarantees efficient, safe, and precise bending of steel bars for a variety of applications in construction.
