Processing reinforcement highly efficiently and transport-ing it to the right position - Rekers Betonwerk achieves this fully automatically with modern machines, robots and customised software from Progress Group. Three robot-assisted EBA automatic stirrup benders, a state-of-the-art with bending system, innovative, fully automated transport logistics and are in operation.
 

Overall concept for efficient production
Together with Progress Group, Rekers has implemented a unique overall concept for reinforcement automation. The required stirrups are automatically delivered to the process-ing stations for the bent reinforcement cages. This just-in-time delivery was required for the efficient completion of cage production - with the right stirrups, at the right time, in the right place. Not only were robots planned for this, which remove the stir-rups from the but a completely new logistics solution was also designed.

When we started to rethink the topic of steel processing, Progress Group made a positive impression on us by immediately embracing this innovation. They were open to innovations.
