A steel bar bender is specialized rebar fabrication equipment for creating accurate bends on round steel and deformed steel bars for reinforced concrete construction. This steel bar bender offers YG‑1 and YG‑2 two models to fit different bar diameter demands, delivering fast bending and towing speed while keeping ±1 mm length and ±1° angle precision. This machine supports ±180° maximum bending angle and interchangeable center pins, works stably from -5℃ to 40℃, and an automatic rebar bending machine version handles single‑wire and double‑wire tasks. A portable rebar bending machine variant keeps the same precision and allows flexible site relocation, and this steel bar bender reduces manual errors for rebar pre‑fabrication work.

Applications of Steel Bar Bender
- Residential building frame projects: Produce stirrups, hook bends and anchor bends for columns and beams. YG‑1 handles small‑diameter rebar batches, while YG‑2 processes round steel up to 12 mm for heavy‑load structural components.
- Highway and bridge infrastructure: Strict ±1° angle accuracy meets official inspection standards, cutting rejection risks for mass pre‑fabricated rebar parts.
- Precast component factories: Dual‑wire processing bends two qualified steel bars simultaneously, raising daily output without sacrificing dimensional consistency.
- Municipal engineering: Quick‑swap center pins simplify switching between single‑wire and double‑wire modes for retaining walls, culverts and foundation reinforcement jobs.
- Remote temporary job sites: The portable rebar bending machine moves easily across scattered work zones and requires no permanent installation.
8 Advantages of YG Steel Bar Bender
- Flexible dual‑wire working capability. It can process up to two steel bars at one time for eligible thin‑diameter materials. Operators boost output without purchasing extra equipment, ideal for high‑volume stirrup production.
- Wide material compatibility. Two model variants cover different diameter ranges for round steel and deformed rebar. Interchangeable center pins of 16 mm, 18 mm, and 20 mm quickly adjust bend radii to satisfy multiple building code requirements.
- Consistent high‑precision output. It holds ±1 mm length tolerance and ±1° angle tolerance for every finished part. Finished rebar pieces fit perfectly during assembly and lower on‑site fitting‑adjustment work.
- Balanced speed and material protection. 800°/sec bending speed and 60 m/min towing speed bring high throughput. Controlled forming force avoids surface micro‑cracks on rebar, protecting the structural performance of reinforcement parts.
- Stable pneumatic clamping performance. The air circuit runs at ≥0.8 MPa to lock steel bars firmly during bending. It eliminates bar slipping, which causes scrap pieces and material waste.
- Strong environmental adaptability. It maintains stable performance within‑5℃‑40℃ working temperature. The machine works reliably for all‑year‑round operation in hot summer or cold winter construction sites.
- Solid anti‑vibration frame design. A heavy-duty welded frame absorbs vibration during continuous production. It keeps machining accuracy and cuts frequent calibration work for operators.
- Reasonable power matching for different workloads. YG‑1 uses 14 kW total power for medium‑light tasks; YG‑2 adopts 20 kW total power for thick rebar processing. Both keep low average power consumption to control operating energy costs.
Single Wire vs Double Wire: Doubling Your Output
The YG series automatic rebar bending machine supports both single-wire and double-wire operation. This is not just a feature—it is a productivity multiplier.
Single-wire mode bends one bar at a time. This is the standard mode for most bending operations. The machine processes round steel and deformed rebar within the specified diameter ranges.
Double-wire mode bends two bars simultaneously. The machine feeds two bars side by side through the bending head, producing two identical stirrups or hooks in the same cycle time. Output doubles without doubling cycle time. The double-wire capability is particularly valuable for high-volume stirrup production. A precast yard producing hundreds of identical stirrups per day can cut production time in half by running two bars at once.
Diameter limits in double-wire mode: The machine can bend two round steel bars up to 6- 8 mm or two deformed bars up to 6- 8 mm, depending on the model. For larger diameters, single-wire mode is used. The operator selects the mode based on the bar size and the production requirement.
Same accuracy, double the output: Both bars in double-wire mode receive the same bend angle and length accuracy. The ±1mm length accuracy and ±1° angle accuracy apply to both bars, ensuring consistent quality across all pieces.
5 FAQs About YG Automatic Rebar Bending Machine
A: Both models achieve a ±180° bending angle. This allows the machine to bend bars in either direction—clockwise or counterclockwise—for hooks, stirrups, and custom shapes.
A: The YG series delivers ±1mm length accuracy and ±1° angle accuracy. This precision ensures that bent bars fit correctly in formwork and reinforcement assemblies.
A: Yes. Both models support double-wire operation. The YG-1 bends two round steel bars up to 4- 6 mm or two deformed bars up to 4- 6 mm. The YG-2 bends two round steel bars up to 4- 8 mm or two deformed bars up to 4- 8 mm.
A: The maximum bending speed is 800°/sec. A 90° bend takes approximately 0.11 seconds.
A: YG‑1 processes round steel 4- 10 mm and deformed steel bar 4- 8 mm in single‑wire mode. YG‑2 supports round steel 4- 12 mm and deformed steel bar 4- 10 mm for single‑wire processing.
