GHM Machinery’s steel bar cage winding machine is a state-of-the-art solution for producing high-quality steel cages efficiently and consistently. This advanced equipment eliminates the need for manual binding, enhancing productivity and ensuring superior quality in construction projects. Below is a comprehensive guide to using the steel cage winding machine and an outline of its key features and benefits.
Use Process
1. Setup and Preparation
- Positioning:
Place the machine in a designated area with ample space for safe and efficient operation. - Material Placement:
Load the steel bars onto the machine’s feeding mechanism, ensuring they are aligned correctly for winding. - Power Connection:
Connect the machine to the appropriate power source and switch it on. Verify all electrical connections are secure and in compliance with safety standards.
2. Programming and Configuration
- PLC Control Setup:
Use the touch screen interface to input the desired parameters, including welding speed, spacing between bars, and the number of windings required for the steel cage. - Diameter Adjustment:
Adjust the machine settings to match the required diameter of the steel cage, which can range from 0.3 meters to 5 meters. - Parameter Storage:
If repetitive production is needed, save the programmed settings using the machine’s data storage function. This feature is particularly useful for batch production, reducing setup time for future operations.
3. Operation
- Feeding Steel Bars:
Feed the steel bars into the machine’s holders. The automated feeding mechanism positions the bars accurately, preparing them for the winding and welding process. - Automatic Winding and Welding:
Activate the machine. The PLC control system will guide the automated winding and welding process, forming the steel bars into a uniform cage structure based on preset specifications. - Monitoring:
Continuously monitor the process through the touch screen interface to ensure smooth operation. Adjust settings as needed without interrupting the production flow.
4. Completion
- Finishing:
Once the steel cage is fully formed and welded, the machine will automatically stop. - Unloading:
Carefully unload the finished steel cage from the machine and transport it to the next stage in the production process or move it to storage. - Quality Check:
Inspect the finished steel cage to confirm that the spacing, weld quality, and overall structure meet the required specifications and construction standards.
Key Features and Benefits
