Automated systems and processes for manufacturing post-tension tendons are provided. In one embodiment the system may comprise a conveyor configured to introduce a pre-determined length of a tendon into a tub; a cutter configured to cut the tendon when it meets the pre-determined length; and (c) a control unit configured for a user to input the pre-determined length and a pre-determined bundle diameter. The control until is typically operably connected to the cutter and to the tub. Advantageously, the tub is configured to coil the tendon to form a tendon bundle and tie the tendon bundle in the predefined bundle diameter. A movable seater station may be employed to fasten an anchor to one end of the strand and said seater station may be configured to move among two or more tubs. A manipulator may be employed to move and hang coiled tendons.

A machine forms a whip from a length of cable. The machine includes a clamping assembly, a notching assembly, and a cutting assembly. The clamping assembly includes a pad which can be move into and out of a cable travel space. The notching assembly includes a notching saw which cuts an outer jacket of the cable in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis. Movement of the pad also causes movement of the notching saw to move into the cable travel space or into a raised position. The cutting assembly includes a cutting tool which transversely cuts the conductors of the cable.

Pliers include a first and a second plier limb which are rotatably held relative to one another about an axis of rotation in an articulation region and which form handle regions on one side of the articulation region and a jaw of the pliers on the other side, the plier limbs being designed to cut a threaded bolt in an overlap region, using first and second cavities that can be superposed in alignment. A thread is formed in each first cavity in order to cut a threaded bolt. The thread is provided over only part of the height of the first cavity and over only part of the inner circumference of the first cavity.

The invention discloses a clamping-cutting-grasping multi-functional engineering attachment applying single-degree-of-freedom shape-shifting mechanism, having a symmetrical structure, comprising: a clamping and cutting device, a grasping device, and a separating and deforming device; further comprises two hydraulic cylinders, one base, two separation bases, a driving hydraulic cylinder, hydraulic scissors, a grasping connecting rod, a grasping claw, a separating connecting rod, a base guide rod, a base slider, a separating slider, first connecting rod, second connecting rod and separation slider track groove. The invention uses a double slider mechanism to achieve the relative movement between the grasping device versus the clamping and shearing device, and also realizes a fast conversion from clamping and cutting device to the grasping device, all the work requirements being satisfied under each working state without motion interference.

A packing strap length cutting device includes a main body and a control device. The main body has a first frame and a second frame. A strap pulling unit, a calculation unit and a sensing unit are electrically connected to the control device. The strap pulling unit is connected to a strap connecting unit. Thereby, a packing strap can be automatically pulled out a predetermined length through the strap pulling unit, and then the strap cutting unit is driven by a driving member of the strap pulling unit to cut the packing strap in the predetermined length, assisting a user in completing the cutting operation quickly.
