ABSTRACT:
A machine for manufacturing a reinforcing body for a concrete part, the reinforcing body including longitudinal rods and wires wound over and welded to the rods. The machine includes an axially stationary main wheel and an axially mobile support wheel mounted coaxially and drivable synchronously with the main wheel. Adjustable guide pieces are carried by the main wheel for supporting the longitudinal rods to be welded. A first servomechanism is connected to the guide pieces for producing a common uniform adjustment of the guide pieces. A welding carriage is movable transversely to the machine longitudinal direction. A second servomechanism synchronized with the first servomechanism moves the welding carriage in synchronism with the adjustment of the guide pieces and the rods and wire consecutively during rotary movement of the main wheel. A transducer is provided for generating a signal as a function of the rotary angular position which is fed to an amplifier for amplifying the signal by a factor corresponding to the desired size of the reinforcing body. A third servomechanism is connected for receiving the amplified signal and for moving the welding carriage transversely of the machine by an amount dictated by the amplified signal. The second and third servomechanisms are connected in series for moving the welding carriage in accordance with the sum of their movements.
