Packing Beds - Tying & Bundling

Multi-stage Packing Bed: TMT Bars / Structural Sections cut as per market length by Cold Shear are further handled on Multi-Stage Packing Bed comprising of below elements:

1. Gauge Table – Installed after cold shear and mounted with Disappearing stopper to adjust the cut length as per market requirement.

2. Transfer Device – Electromechanically operated mechanism to shift the bars in layer form from Gauge Table to Chain Conveyor.

3. Chain Conveyor – To transfer bars from Gauge table to Bundling Table. On this Chain Conveyor sub bundles of finished bars of lesser bundle weight can be made. This Chain Conveyor is a single-stage or multi-stage based on the plant’s production capacity. 

4. Bundle Table: Here the bars are collected together to make the master bundle as per market requirement. This master bundle is then fed to Automatic Tying Machine for Tying / Binding or tied manually by a Pneumatic Strapping machine.

Bar Counting and Splitting System: Automatic Bar Counting system improves counting precision, reduces labour intensity, and increases the benefit to the company.

Counting accuracy of the bar in the sales process of round steel bar and deformed steel bars, directly related to the rate of the number of steel negative tolerance. In the condition of stable shape and size, the accuracy of the fixed number directly affects the negative tolerance rate of each bundle of products. So, this has also become the focus of users’ wide attention.

Bar Bending System: We at Steefo manufacture an Automatic Bending System to bend sub bundles of bars to save on freight costs. Our Bar Bending Systems work online as these are designed to match the plant’s production capacity. The various components include Inlet Roller Table, Kick-off mechanisms, Bar bending arrangements, outlet roller table.

Automatic Tying Machine: This new generation of wire binding machines for TMT Bar bundles is operated with a combination of gear motors and a hydraulic unit. Mechanical flaps perform the tightening around the bundle during the wire stretching operation. A portable OP panel gives data as machine operation status and maintenance values information. The machine shall be placed on a roller table that transports the bundle through the track of the device.

Various Parts include:

1. Wire Binding Machine
2. Wire Magazine
3. Bundle Former
4. Roller Tables

Pneumatic Strapping Machine: Lightweight Strapping Tool used for Manual Tying of TMT Bar Bundles.

Bar Bundle Stock Table: Bundle stock table is an arrangement to assist storage of bundles until they can be stocked in the Finish yard by EOT Crane or loaded into trucks. The main components are the Incoming Conveyor, Hydraulic Kick off mechanism, and chain conveyor cum stock table.
