Cutting and straightening rebar by hand is slow. It wastes material. And it needs extra workers. A rebar straightening and cutting machine does the job automatically. It straightens, measures, and cuts in one pass.
Set the length, press start, and the machine runs. No wasted material. No extra labor. Just straight rebar, cut to size, ready to use.This wire straightener machine works for both rebar and steel wire.
YG Machinery offers reliable rebar cutting and bending machines for construction and steel processing projects.

Main Structure of Rebar Straightener and Cutter
A rebar straightening and cutting machine has several main parts:
Straightening Cylinder – Rotates at high speed with straightening rollers to straighten bent rebar and remove surface rust.
Traction Mechanism – Pulls the rebar through the machine at a steady speed of 50m/min.
Cutting Mechanism – Uses a hammerhead and cutter to cut the rebar at the preset length.
Microcomputer Controller – Allows operators to set length and quantity by simply pressing numbers.
Rebar Feeding Rack – Holds the coiled rebar and feeds it smoothly into the machine.
Frame and Drive System – Supports all components and provides power through motors and belts.
Working Principle of Rebar Straightening and Cutting Machine
The electric motor drives the straightening cylinder to rotate at high speed through belt transmission. The rebar passes through the straightening cylinder, where rollers remove bends and surface rust. The traction mechanism pulls the rebar forward. When the rebar reaches the preset length, the microcomputer controller triggers the cutting mechanism. The hammerhead strikes the upper cutter to cut the rebar. The cut rebar falls into the receiving frame. The cutter returns to its original position by spring action. One complete cycle takes only seconds.
Core Advantages of Steel Bar Straightener
Microcomputer control – Set length and quantity by pressing numbers. Anyone can operate it.
Automatic operation – Straightening, length measurement, and cutting are all automatic.
High cutting accuracy – ±0.5-1cm error. No wasted material.
Fast processing speed – 50m/min pulling speed. Processes up to 16mm diameter rebar.
Hydraulic or mechanical cutting – Clean cut with minimal noise.
Removes surface rust – The straightening process also removes rust and oxide scale from the rebar surface.
Simple maintenance – Low failure rate. Cheap spare parts available.
Durable construction – Stable operation for long hours. Built for construction site conditions.
Three machine types available – Standard type (300-500 tons of rebar per set of wear parts), 1000-ton type (800-1000 tons), and variable frequency type (adjustable speed).
Application of Rebar Cutting Machine
For projects that also need bending, our rebar cutting and bending machine can work alongside the straightener.This rebar straightening and cutting machine works well in many jobs:
- Construction sites for housing and commercial buildings
- Bridge and tunnel projects
- Precast concrete and prefabricated component factories
- Infrastructure projects like highways and railways
- Steel processing and fabrication workshops
- Building material supply centers
- Large-scale water conservancy projects
- Power station construction
Anywhere you need straight, accurately cut rebar, this machine helps you get the job done faster.
How to Choose the Right Machine Type
| Machine Type | Wear Parts Life | Best For | Speed |
| Standard type | 300-500 tons | Small workshops, occasional use | Fixed |
| 1000-ton type | 800-1000 tons | Medium to large projects, daily use | Fixed |
| Variable frequency type | 800-1000 tons | Continuous production, varying lengths | Adjustable |
Choose standard type for low volume, 1000-ton type for high volume, and variable frequency type when you need to change length often.
Customer Case 1 – Philippines Housing Project
A construction company in Manila was processing rebar manually for a large housing project. Workers were slow. Cut lengths were inconsistent. Material waste was high. They bought a YG YGT 4-14 rebar straightening and cutting machine. The machine processed 6mm to 12mm rebar at 50m/min. Cut length error dropped to under 5mm. Material waste was reduced by 12%. The project manager said the machine paid for itself in three months.
Customer Case 2 – Indonesia Precast Factory
A precast concrete factory in Surabaya needed to produce thousands of straight rebar pieces every day. Manual cutting could not keep up with demand. They installed a YG YGT 5-16 rebar straightening and cutting machine. The machine ran continuously for eight hours a day. It processed 14mm rebar with ±1cm accuracy. Daily output increased by 40%. The factory owner said they have not had a single breakdown in six months.
FAQ
Q: What diameter range can this machine handle?
A: YGT 4-14 handles 4-14mm rebar. YGT 5-16 handles 5-16mm rebar.
Q: How accurate is the cutting length?
A: Cutting error is ±0.5-1cm. The microcomputer control ensures consistent accuracy.
Q: Can it remove rust from rebar?
A: Yes. The straightening process also removes surface rust and oxide scale.
Q: Is it easy to operate?
A: Yes. Just enter the length and quantity. The machine runs automatically.
Q: What is the processing speed?
A: 50m/min pulling speed for both models.
Q: How long do wear parts last?
A: Standard type: 300-500 tons. 1000-ton type and variable frequency type: 800-1000 tons.
Q: What power supply is needed?
A: 380V three-phase power.
Q: How is this different from a rebar shear machine?
A: A rebar shear machine only cuts. This machine straightens and cuts in one pass, saving time and labor.
Q: Do you also make rebar bending machines?
A: Yes. For bending rebar into angles and shapes, check our rebar bending machine for shaping steel bars.
