  • Publication number: 20190054517
    Abstract: A production system for processing a wire material wound to form a wire reel, in particular reinforcing steel. The production system comprises a receiving device for receiving the wire reel; an unreeling device for removing the wire material on the wire reel; and a processing device for processing the removed wire material. The unreeling device comprises a conveyor surrounding a first deflection roller and a second deflection roller, wherein permanent magnets are arranged on the conveyor and an increased frictional connection can be established between a surface of the wire material and an outer surface of the conveying means by means of the permanent magnets.

  • Publication number: 20190047039
    Abstract: A machining system for cutting round material to length, in particular concrete steel. The machining system has a feeder assembly for feeding and positioning the round material, and a cutting device for cutting the round material to length. The feeder assembly is designed as a belt conveyor, wherein in a conveyor permanent magnets are arranged, which are positioned below a receiving surface for receiving round material, wherein the round material can be fixed to the receiving surface of the conveyor means by the permanent magnets.

  • Patent number: 10202770
    Abstract: A reinforcing element includes a first and a second reinforcing mat having metal mat rods, which are welded at angles to each other at junction points, which reinforcing mats are held spaced apart from each other at a normal distance by rod-shaped spacers with respect to the first mat plane and the second mat plane of the reinforcing mats. The spacers are metal and are permanently connected to individual mat rods of the first and second reinforcing mat by welding connections, preferably resistance welding connections, wherein at least individual spacers protrude outward at least beyond the first mat plane of the first reinforcing mat in a direction pointing away from the second reinforcing mat by a first protrusion length. Further, a double wall is furnished with the reinforcing element and a method produces the reinforcing element and the double wall.

  • Publication number: 20180333764
    Abstract: The invention relates to a production plant (18) for manufacturing a three-dimensional reinforcement element for a reinforced concrete element, comprising a receiving table (19) for accommodating the reinforcement element and a manipulation device (21) for manipulating and joining individual parts of the reinforcement element. The manipulation device (21) comprises a first articulated arm robot (22) having a gripping mechanism (24) for positioning rebar mats and/or spacers of the reinforcement element and a second articulated arm robot (23) a welding unit (25) for welding the spacers to the rebar mats.

  • Publication number: 20170254084
    Abstract: The invention relates to a reinforcing element (1) comprising a first (2) and a second reinforcing mat (3) having metal mat rods (6), which are welded at angles to each other at junction points (7), which reinforcing mats (2, 3) are held spaced apart from each other at a normal distance (9) by rod-shaped spacers (8) with respect to the first mat plane (4) and the second mat plane (5) of the reinforcing mats. The spacers are metal (8) and are permanently connected to individual mat rods (6) of the first (2) and second reinforcing mat (3) by welding connections (10), preferably resistance welding connections, wherein at least individual spacers (8) protrude outward at least beyond the first mat plane (4) of the first reinforcing mat (2) in a direction (11) pointing away from the second reinforcing mat (3) by a first protrusion length. The invention further relates to a double wall furnished with the reinforcing element and a method for producing the reinforcing element and the double wall.
