In recent years, infrastructure construction in Cyprus has maintained steady growth. Multiple key projects have been carried out successively, including the expansion of Larnaca and Paphos International Airports, new sections of the Nicosia Highway, and Larnaca urban transportation projects, which have generated continuous demand for construction materials and processing machinery.
In the rebar processing stage, many Cypriot construction contractors face the same difficulties. Traditional manual straightening and cutting is low-efficiency with unstable dimensional accuracy. Besides, rising labor costs year by year keep squeezing construction profit margins. Therefore, more local companies are searching for automatic rebar processing equipment with stable output quality. The steel bar straightening and cutting machine is the ideal solution for such demands.

YG’s steel bar straightening and cutting machine wins recognition from global clients thanks to solid materials and exquisite workmanship. The four-wheel feeding inlet allows easy bar feeding with low resistance. High-quality oil pumps feature fast oil return and long service life. The thickened straightening frame adopts integral welding for a stable and rigid structure. Upgraded solenoid valves eliminate external leakage, minimize internal leakage, and deliver quick response. Equipped with a direct pressure length measuring system and Cr12MoV measuring wheel, the unit is flexible for adjustment and delivers precise length reading, guaranteeing accurate fixed-size cutting.
Case 1: Equipment Upgrade for a Local Construction Company in Nicosia
Client Background
A medium-sized construction enterprise in Nicosia mainly undertakes residential and commercial building projects. In 2025, it won the subcontract for rebar supply and installation on a highway construction project.
Problems Encountered
After project launch, the company’s outdated rebar processing method exposed obvious drawbacks. Several old simple straighteners and cutters required 4-5 workers to operate together, resulting in low productivity. Worse still, the cutting length error reached 5- 6 mm frequently. A large number of processed rebars became unusable and had to be reworked, causing material waste and schedule delays. The site supervisor reported that rebar processing could hardly keep up with concrete pouring progress.
YG Solution
The company manager found YG Machinery by searching for rebar straightening and cutting machines on Google. After reviewing the performance introduction of the GTQ4-14 series, he contacted YG’s sales team via the online chat tool on the official website.
With a full understanding of the client’s requirements, YG sales recommended the GTQ4-14 Variable Frequency 1000-ton steel bar straightening and cutting machine. It supports stepless speed regulation from 0 to 80 meters per minute, flexibly handling rebars of different diameters. The YG team also gave a live machine operation demo via video call, elaborating on the working principle and precision advantages of the direct pressure length measuring system.
Satisfied with machine performance and professional service, the client placed an order for one unit in November 2025 after two weeks of communication and price comparison. The machine arrived at the Nicosia construction site in early January 2026, and YG guided installation and commissioning remotely.
Application Results
YG followed up with the client two months after commissioning. The site supervisor stated that this rebar straightening machine runs stably. Rebar straightness is greatly improved compared with old equipment, and cutting length deviation is controlled within 2mm. Only two operators can finish the workload that previously needed four or five workers, cutting labor costs effectively and matching the overall construction timeline.
Case 2: Equipment Purchase for a Rebar Processing Subcontractor in Larnaca
Client Background
A rebar processing subcontractor in Larnaca provides finished rebar fabrication for surrounding construction sites. In the first half of 2025, it secured a large rebar processing order for the Larnaca Airport Expansion Project, requiring straightening and cutting of thousands of tons of rebar within a tight deadline.
Problems Encountered
The existing production capacity could not meet the heavy workload. Old machines broke down frequently, shutting down production 1 to 2 times per week and severely delaying progress. Moreover, the airport project set strict tolerance standards for cutting length, which the aging devices could not consistently meet. The company urgently needed a reliable steel bar straightener to boost productivity.
YG Solution
The company’s technical director was impressed by the parameters of the Variable Frequency 2000-ton model: maximum straightening speed up to 100m/min, 15KW traction motor, and 5.5KW cutting motor with sufficient power for nonstop continuous operation.
YG sales held multiple rounds of communication, addressing the client’s concerns about precision and durability in detail. We highlighted that the length measuring system uses Cr12MoV measuring wheels for high accuracy and wear resistance, while upgraded solenoid valves ensure sharp and precise cutting action. YG also shared a list of wearing parts and stocking suggestions for routine maintenance.
After evaluating multiple suppliers, the client confirmed YG offered outstanding cost performance and ordered one GTQ4-14 Variable Frequency 2000-ton rebar straightening and cutting machine in July 2025. Installation and production started in September of the same year.
Application Results
Months into operation, the client reported stable machine performance that fully satisfies the airport project’s precision requirements. Daily output increased significantly, and breakdown downtime was drastically reduced. The manager noted they would consider purchasing an additional identical unit for future large-scale projects.
Daily Maintenance Guidelines for Steel Bar Straightening and Cutting Machine
Proper routine maintenance keeps the steel bar straightening and cutting machine in optimal condition and reduces unplanned downtime. Follow the key points below:
- Inspect wearing parts regularly. Core consumables for GTQ4-14 series include length counter, solenoid valves, straightening wheels, measuring wheels, vertical feed rollers and horizontal feed rollers as well as V-belts. Check wear of straightening wheels and measuring wheels every 200 working hours, and replace them once dimensional accuracy is affected.
- Keep adequate lubrication. Check bearings and sliding components inside the straightening frame before daily startup, and top up lubricating oil on schedule. Replace the lubricant completely every 500 working hours.
- Routine inspection for solenoid valves. Keep valve surfaces clean, check wire connections for tightness regularly, and ensure fast response.
- Calibrate the length measuring system monthly. Use a rebar of known standard length to calibrate the measuring system every month. Adjust the pressure and position of measuring wheels immediately if measurement deviation occurs.
- Daily cleaning work. Clear steel scraps around the cutter and machine body after each shift to avoid debris interference. Apply anti-rust treatment if the machine will be idle for a long period.
