 Eurobend S.A. has more than 20 years of experience in engineering and design of CNC machines and offers a wide range of equipment, such as, for example, 2D and 3D automatic stirrup benders, straightening and cutting machinery with one line or multi-lines, lattice girder and mesh welding machines, machinery for the production of continuously shaped (spiral) concrete reinforcing stirrups and much more.

The product range of reinforcement steel processing lines includes, among other things, a complete range of programmable high-output automatic straightening units for coiled reinforcement steel (type Melc), designed for continuous operation in the reinforcement steel industry.

Milestones of the technology in reinforcement steel production

The straightening method is based on the principle of a rotor with hyperbolically profiled cylinders (rollers) that has been designed and presented by the engineers of Eurobend in the early 80’s. This method has set new standards in the industry and it also...
