About Rebars
Reinforcing bars are also known as rebars, they are usually made out of carbon steel, and are used in reinforcement masonry structures or reinforced concrete. With given ridges for better anchoring rebars play fundamental role in straightening the concrete blocks. The reason why concrete needs reinforcing is because this material undergoes a very strong compressive load, and it is quite weak in tensile load.
Standard Rebars ranges from 4mm to 50 mm bar and they vary in specifications, they usually come as 6m in length.
Bar processing equipment
Equipments for fabricating rebars vary from machines for bending, spiral bending to cutting, shearing, de-coiling or straightening. They are produced as automatic equipment or semi automatic. The last ones took advantages of the mobile machines used in construction areas, due to their small size and weight they can be transported to any location.
The main advantage for using bar processing equipment is increasing the production capacity of steel yard and minimizing the use of manual labour. They are fast, durable, cost effective and ready to be operated by a layman with minimal experience.Because of many advantages, reasonable prices the demand for that equipment is still increasing.
One of the most popular and innovative manufacturers of equipment for reinforcing bars in Asia is Jaypee India Limited. Jaypee's products, especially Bar Cutting Machines and Bar Bending Machines can be found in almost every construction project in this large market. Through consistent quality and after sales service the company has earned desirable reputation and goodwill in the market.
