Rebuilding of infrastructure in Iraq with automated production
With prefabricated concrete elements many building projects can be realized quicker and safer. With the rising need of affordable housing and new infrastructure, this way of building is making a remarkable impact in Iraq for the better. Automation is benefitting the building industry. Fourth Dimension Group has now invested in new machinery and software from Progress Group to modernize their reinforcement production. Now they can be even quicker and more accurate in the production of precast elements for different housing and infrastructural projects. The necessary reinforcement can be produced fully automated with the new mesh welding plant and stirrup bender in order to provide high quality elements such as wall panels, beams & columns, hollow core slabs, girders and planks.
Automating the reinforcement production
Fourth Dimension Precast invested in a new M-System Blue-Mesh® mesh welding plant and an EBA stirrup bender from Progress Group to obtain their goal of saving time without compromising on quality. The tailor-made mesh for critical architectural and structural design can now be produced fully automated. This improves the production process and makes it possible to deliver within the deadlines. The machinery is easy to operate, the software feature is integrated, and the precision of the performance is remarkable according to the responsible at Fourth Dimension. With the “stabos” software solution integrated in the machinery the collection and evaluation of production data can be done automatically. With the centrally collected data, the productivity and the quality of the plant has been additionally increased.
