In the ever-evolving world of construction, efficiency and automation are becoming the defining factors for success. GMT Robotics, in collaboration with Dextra, introduces a groundbreaking innovation - the Coupler Buddy.
Designed to streamline rebar handling and fabrication, this automated rebar processing system eliminates manual bottlenecks, reduces labor costs, and ensures unmatched precision.
Process automation
This system automates the process of preparing rebars for couplers by:
• Separating a bundle so the bars lay flat on a conveyor – kicked-off into next process • Sawing the ends of each bar before feeding them forward • Using a robot with special picking and gripping tool - to place a coupler on the rebar • Feeding the bar into the Dextra machine for swaging the coupler onto the rebar
Efficiency and effectiveness
The Coupler Buddy represents a major leap forward in rebar fabrication efficiency, automation, and cost-effectiveness.
By enabling 24/7 automated production, reducing labor dependency, and ensuring consistent quality, it is set to redefine how the construction industry handles rebar processing.
