Abstract: A method includes feeding material in wire, rod or band form to a bending head through the a guiding nozzle of a feeding device and bending the material via a bending die. The bent material is taken out of the bending machine by a robot gripper arm controlled via a control device, and the bending die and/or the guiding nozzle is removed from the bending machine by a, preferably the same, robot gripper arm. Optionally, a further bending die and/or a further guiding nozzle is arranged on the bending machine by a, preferably the same, robot gripper arm. Optionally, the material is fed to the bending head through the further guiding nozzle and/or bent via the further bending die. Optionally, the bent material is removed from the bending machine by a, preferably the same, robot gripper arm.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a machine and to a method for producing uniaxial reinforcing steel bar meshes, in particular for uses with not predominantly static load, wherein reinforcing wires are fastened to support strips by means of individual wire tying.

Abstract: A bending head for welded wire mesh includes a frame, a bending face to be moved relative to the frame for bending a wire in a welded wire mesh, a counterholder on which the wire can be braced during bending by the bending face, a bending die which, at least in part, has a predefined bending radius, a bending arm on which the bending face is arranged, and an arm drive device with which the bending arm can be adjusted relative to the frame. A support is provided at and/or on which the bending arm is movably mounted. A support drive device, with which the support can be adjusted relative to the frame and which is separate from the arm drive device, is provided.

Abstract: A formwork assembly includes a base body to be fastened detachably to the formwork surface, and an attachment element. A fastening device can release the at least one attachment element, in particular automatically, from the at least one base body. At least one centering device is provided separate from the at least one fastening device, by which the attachment element when fixed to the base body can be automatically aligned relative to the base body. The base body and the attachment element can be arranged, in the fixed state, together on the formwork surface and can be removed from the formwork surface.
