VSA: AUTOMATIC CAGE WELDING MACHINES FOR ROUND, SQUARE AND POLYGONAL PILES, COLUMNS AND BEAMS

Using the VSA fully automatic welding machine, which draws longitudinal wires directly off coil, you can effectively produce reinforcement cages of any length and with all possible profiles.

A perfect symbiosis of productivity, quality and efficiency has been created in combination with a specially developed automatic high-speed saw. Cages can be cut to length using this circular saw without any interruption to the continuous production process.

For the production of reinforcement cages with longitudinal bar diameters > 14 mm, Apilion has developed a separate cage welding machine (USM-ZK) that works with cut-to-size longitudinal bars.

VSA-ZK

This semi-automated Apilion cage welding machine is especially designed for the production of heavyweight cages off-coil or with pre-cut bars for piles, beams or poles. The longitudinals have to be fed manually. The reinforcement cage manufactured will be fixed by the clamping-unit moving in front of the turning face-plate.

Key machine features:

  • Longitudinal wire feed directly from standard wire coils – no stocking of prefabricated longitudinal wires;
  • Over 30 % more output compared to other reinforcement welding machines thanks to continuous production.
