Project: Yanji–Yiwu Railway Project
Client: China Railway 15th Bureau Group, Beam Yard
Equipment supplied: Horizontal Flat-Bending Combination Line (rebar processing)
Project Background
The Yanji–Yiwu Railway Project is a key railway construction project in Northeast China. Its precast beam yard has to produce large volumes of rebar components with consistent quality and a tight delivery schedule. Railway beam reinforcement cages demand accurate bending angles, uniform dimensions and stable, repeatable output, and traditional manual or semi-manual bending cannot reliably deliver that at scale.
To meet these demands, China Railway 15th Bureau chose XYC Steel Machine to supply a Horizontal Flat-Bending Combination Line for its beam yard.
The Challenge
- High precision requirements: Rebar for railway beams must meet strict standards for bending angle, size and consistency.
- Large production volume: Beam prefabrication needs continuous, high-efficiency rebar processing to keep pace with the construction schedule.
- Labor and safety pressure: Manual bending is labor-intensive, varies from worker to worker and carries higher safety risks.
- Harsh site conditions: The equipment must run reliably in a demanding outdoor construction environment.
Our Solution
XYC Steel Machine delivered a horizontal flat-bending combination line that integrates feeding, cutting and bending into one coordinated workflow:
- Horizontal flat-bending design: Rebar is bent in a stable horizontal position, giving accurate angles and smooth, uniform bends.
- Combination line layout: Multiple processing units work together, reducing handling and transfer time between steps.
- Automated, programmable control: Operators set bending parameters through the control system, so the same specification is reproduced batch after batch.
- Robust structure: Built for continuous heavy-duty operation in beam yard conditions.
Results
- Higher efficiency: Automated bending raises daily output and shortens the rebar preparation cycle.
- Consistent quality: Standardized bending improves dimensional accuracy and makes cage assembly easier.
- Lower labor dependence: Fewer operators are needed, and quality no longer varies with individual skill.
- Safer workflow: Less manual handling of heavy rebar makes the yard safer to work in.
- Reliable performance: The line operates stably under continuous production for the project.
