Sliding mould production:
Hollow core slabs or flat elements are endlessly produced on long casting beds using slide formers or extruders. After setting of the concrete the elements are sawn to the requested length.
For stressing on the sliding mould we supply
Casting bed equipment:
- • Equipment for casting beds of 1.2 m, 1.5 m and 2.4 m in width with a stressing force of 2000 kN to 4000 kN incl. abutment anchor plates (also arranged below floor level allowing the slide former to pass over)
- • With or without detensioning equipment (abutment anchor posts, detensioning anchors, detensioning cylinders)
- • If requested, also special solutions for your individual requirements
- • Anchor grips for wire and strand
Basic machinery equipment:
- Mobile and stationary synchronized multi-stressing systems
- Single-wire stressing jacks with force and elongation measurement and logging (TENSAcontrol system)
- Hydraulic pump units with jack lifting unit, pneumatic tires and multiple connections
- Strand uncoiling reels and wire cages, automatic wire pushing plants, strand cutters and wire cutters
- Detensioning pump units for soft force transmission for highest quality of the elements
- Force measuring units for calibrating the stressing jack and for stressing force control at the casting bed
- Cleaning lines for anchor grips
- Accessories and spare parts available in the long term
- Button heading machines and plants
We should be glad to provide advice on the following subjects
- Multi-strand prestressing vs. single-wire/strand prestressing
- Hydraulic detensioning
- Efficient set-up
- Alternative production of hollow core slabs or flat slabs on tables or using the carousel system
Pole production:
Prestressed concrete poles for advertising beams visible from a long distance, power lines, signal posts or other applications are produced at the precast concrete factory in a cost-efficient and effective manner and with consistent quality using various methods. Either pre-cut prestressing wires (also with button heads) or strands with anchor grips are used for this purpose. Depending on the method, all wires are prestressed in a bundle (particularly in the case of many small wires) or using a single-wire stressing jack. A rigid spun mould is often transmitting the stressing force.
Ram piles, however, are either produced on long casting beds or, in individual cases, using the carousel system.
For the production of prestressed poles or ram piles we supply
Casting bed equipment:
- Casting bed equipment with abutment anchor posts, transverse anchor plates, detensioning equipment, vertically adjustable supports and guards
- Detensioning cylinders with support sleeves
- Synchronous stroke display for safe detensioning
Basic machinery equipment for casting beds or rigid moulds:
- Strand uncoiling reels and wire cages, wire pushing machines and plants, optionally with hydraulic and mechanical steel cutters
- Button heading machines and plants
- Anchor grips and couplers for wire and strand, supports for flame-cutting the strand after setting of the concrete
- Stressing jacks, optionally with elongation measurement and logging (TENSAcontrol system)
- Pump units with jack lifting unit, pneumatic tires and multiple connections as well as detensioning pump units
- Force measuring units for calibrating the stressing jack and for stressing force control
- Cleaning lines for anchor grips
- Screw jacks and detensioning wrenches for threaded anchors
- Stressing force measuring units for threaded anchors
- Saws for prestressed concrete
- Accessories and spare parts
- Spiral coiling machines for rigid ring-shaped reinforcement
We should be glad to provide advice on the following subjects
- Rigid mould vs. long casting bed
- Detensioning equipment
- Multi-strand prestressing vs. single-wire/strand prestressing
