Composite-Tech USA is globally known for taking FRP production lines to the level of full automation and unmatched performance. To this day we remain as the leading manufacturer of the most advanced FRP pultrusion machines for basalt and fiberglass rebar, mesh, bent elements. Furthermore, we supply our equipment not only to clients in USA, but globally, assembling each FRP rebar production line at the client’s site, which in turn makes our lines truly turnkey. As you may know, the demand for composite construction materials in USA is thriving like never before and this is why it is a perfect opportunity to either jump start or expand your business with FRP rebar manufacturing equipment.
We manufacture 2 different GFRP production lines:
Our equipment is designed to be reliable, highly productive and unique in the technology we utilise! All our developments and innovations are patented, which guarantees not only high effectiveness of your investment, but also a competition free market. Moreover, to ensure reliability of all production line modules we use only those components that have passed our rigorous tests and performance evaluations.
By acquiring Composite-Tech FRP rebar production equipment, our clients also have following deliverables:
- Assistance in the selection of special premises
- Our specialists carry out installation of equipment and perform commissioning works
- Staff training
- Ongoing advice to your technical experts
Technical characteristics
Technical characteristics of the line for the production of composite reinforcement:
| Purpose: | manufacture of fiberglass or basalt fiber reinforcement |
| Diameter of products: | from 2 mm to 30 mm. |
| Voltage: | 380 V / 50 HZ |
| Power: | 26 kw |
| Line Performance: | 6-26 running meters per minute |
| Equipment Length: | 45m |
| Width: | 1.2m |
| Height: | 1.6m |
Depending on the configuration our production lines can be used to simultaneously produce either 4 (CT4) or 2 bars (CT2), significantly increasing productivity.
GFRP rebar produced by our equipment has enhanced strength properties (rupture strength, breaking strength and tensile strength), which is appreciated by professional construction companies across the globe.
We have achieved such performance as a result of a very large amount of work done in collaboration with various universities and research centres that specialise in composite materials and advanced construction industry technologies.
FRP production equipment technology benefits
Following the aforementioned facts, we reach the benefits of the FRP technology over steel rebar, mesh and bent elements. Although these are already widely known in the construction industry, we would like to go over them once again, and outline the key factors that serve as the reason why the world is shifting to FRP rebar.
- Corrosion resistant – FRP rebar, mesh, BE do not rust and are immune to salt ions, chemicals and concrete inherent alcalines. This is important when you build concrete structures in coastal areas near seas, oceans, lakes and rivers. FRP is not affected by corrosion and this means that concrete won’t crack as rebar will not expand like steel.
- Zero decay – FRP rebar eliminates cracks in the concrete blocks and consequent breaking of structure. Therefore, we extend life expectancy of the blocks and eliminate the need for refurbishment. Our tests show that concrete structures will remain intact for over 80 years without critical cracks and deformation of the structures that contain FRP rebar.
- Price – Steel has doubled in price since mid 2020, whilst the general market suffers from constant fluctuations. This makes it hard to forecast your steel rebar production prices. Opposingly, FRP Rebar raw materials have historically been decreasing in price and maintain a stable price behaviour.
- Strength and temperature resistance – The end product of our production lines withstands -70 to +150 degrees Celsius range of temperatures and is 5 times stronger than its steel counterpart.
- Transportation – FRP rebar is over 5 times lighter than steel. This multiplication factor means that you can transport at least 5 times more FRP rebar using the same machinery and transportation techniques as with steel rebar. This then becomes an integral part of your cost and profitability calculations, decreasing these factors to minimum.
