A rebar cage assembly system, a modular jig system and method for forming a rebar cage are disclosed. The rebar cage assembly system includes a modular jig for forming a rebar cage. The modular jig includes a fixture base, and a plurality of jig subcomponents. The jig subcomponents each having a jig attachment feature and a rebar retention feature. The rebar retention feature is configured to detachably receive rebar segments. The plurality of jig subcomponents are customizably arrangeable on the fixture base to form a modular jig to cooperatively position rebar segments in the rebar retention features. The rebar cage assembly system further includes a robotic system having a first robot and second robot and a plurality of rebar segments. The first robot is arranged and disposed to independently retrieve and position jig subcomponents and rebar segments. The second robot is arranged and disposed to join rebar segments to form a rebar cage.

SYSTEMS, APPARATUS, AND METHODS OF ADJUSTABLY BUILDING REBAR STRUCTURE
20220305544 · 2022-09-29 ·

Feed segments within an adjustable feed matrix may be vertically adjusted, horizontally adjusted, and adjusted for rebar thickness. The adjustable feed matrix may be used in rebar structure building. A feed column may include a plurality of feed segments. Each feed segment may include a feed input and a feed output connected by a feed cavity. The feed cavity can include a feed mechanism and/or stabilizing mechanism that allows different thicknesses of rebar to consistently pass through the feed segment to the feed output. A vertical adjustment may adjust vertical spacing of the segments and increase or decrease vertical spacing of the feed outputs, enabling different vertical spacing between rebar passing through segments of the feed column. The feed column may attach to a rail through a coupling. The coupling may be released through a horizontal adjustment, enabling the feed column to slide along the rail and adjust horizontal spacing of the feed outputs.

Installation for producing reinforcement cages for tower segments of wind turbines

A system for producing reinforcing cages for wind turbine tower segments, wherein a reinforcing cage has in each case substantially horizontally oriented ring segments and substantially vertically oriented stiffening elements. It is proposed that the system has a receiving area which is adapted so as to receive the preferably inner, substantially horizontally oriented ring segments of the reinforcing cage, a first handling robot for supplying and positioning the stiffening elements, and a second handling robot for connecting the ring elements to the stiffening elements.

Method and system for the production of reinforcing dowel baskets for contracting-expanding joints
09561557 · 2017-02-07 ·

Systems and methods for producing dowel baskets from dowel side frames and transverse dowel rods. The dowel side frames are introduced at a top location of the production system, where there is initially introduced a first dowel rod and subsequently, with successive stepwise advancements, the remaining dowel rods are introduced. The dowel side frames with the dowel rods advance on guides that may rotate the dowel side frames relative to the axes of the longitudinal wires so as to impart a desired inclination angle relative to the rods. In following, with continuous stepwise advancements, the dowel rods are alternately welded, each to one of the opposed dowel side frames. Transverse wires are welded on the longitudinal wires to impart rigidity to the dowel basket. Subsequently, mass-produced dowel baskets may be stacked in groups.
