The CT4 machine is designed for the production of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebar with diameters ranging from 4 mm to 20 mm. It can simultaneously produce up to 4 rebar rods, ensuring high productivity and cost-efficiency. The machine comprises several key components, each performing a specific function in the production process.
Key Features of CT4
Characteristic | Value |
---|---|
Rebar Diameters | 4 mm - 20 mm |
Number of Rods | Up to 4 |
Overall Productivity | Up to 32 m/min |
Components | 12 main modules |
1. Creel
- Function: Holds spools of roving and creates initial tension in the threads using guide rings through which the threads pass.
2. Roving Dryer
- Function: Aligns and dries the roving threads, ensuring even heat distribution and optimal moisture content for subsequent impregnation with polymer resin.
3. Impregnation Module
- Function: Impregnates the roving threads with resin and presses them to maintain crucial properties of the polymer binder (flow, cure rate, temperature) while reducing polymer consumption through a modern pressing system.
4. Rib Winder
- Function: Winds periodic profiles (ribs) with precise winding steps for each rebar size, ensuring a strictly cylindrical rod shape and removing air from the impregnated rod.
5. Infrared Booster
- Function: Accelerates the resin polymerization process.
6. Tunnel Kiln
- Function: Used for resin polymerization, where the resin cures and the final GFRP rebar is formed.
7. Cooling Module
- Function: Cools the GFRP rebar.
8. Pulling Device
- Function: Pulls the GFRP rebar and determines the pulling speed.
9. Cutting Device
- Function: Cuts the GFRP rebar to the desired length.
10. Winder Coves
- Function: Lays the GFRP rebar into coils.
11. Automatic Coiler (Optional)
12. Device for Twisting Fiberglass Strands
- Function: Forms ribbed thread by twisting roving threads.
Productivity
Rebar Diameter (mm) | Number of Rods | Pulling Speed (m/min) | Productivity (m/min) |
---|---|---|---|
4 | 4 | 8 | 32 |
6 | 4 | 7 | 28 |
8 | 4 | 6 | 24 |
10 | 4 | 5 | 20 |
12 | 3 | 4 | 12 |
14 | 3 | 3.5 | 10.5 |
16 | 2 | 3 | 6 |
18 | 2 | 2.5 | 5 |
20 | 1 | 2 | 2 |
These data are approximate and depend on the characteristics of the resins used and environmental conditions.
