The TyBOT in brief.
Updated · Source: manufacturer's published specifications
The Advanced Construction Robotics TyBOT Rebar-Tying Robot is a construction robot by Advanced Construction Robotics. Key figures published by the manufacturer: 1,200+ ties per hour, bridge decks 3 to 35.7 m wide and no pre-mapping or BIM. Robot Distribution supplies it in Europe to buy, rent or as RaaS, with its EU declaration of conformity. Price on request.
OVERVIEW
The TyBOT in detail
TyBOT, from Advanced Construction Robotics, is an autonomous rebar-tying robot for bridge decks. The gantry spans the deck on the existing edge forms or screed rails, from 10 to 117 ft (3 to 35.7 m) wide, finds each rebar intersection on its own and ties it, without pre-programming, pre-mapping or BIM input. It is on site and working within two hours, ties top and bottom mats of black, epoxy-coated, galvanised, stainless or fibreglass bar up to #8 by #9, and applies 100 %, 50 % or 33 % tie patterns.
ACR gives an active rate of more than 1,200 ties per hour, over 9,600 ties in an eight-hour shift and at least 25 % schedule savings, with up to ten hours of work without refuelling, day or night and in the rain. On the I-30 crossing in Little Rock, three TyBOTs placed 669,142 ties. The ACR BOTs platform reports tie counts, utilisation and faults in real time. ACR currently deploys TyBOT in the United States through Certified Innovators; Robot Distribution can relay a European project to the manufacturer and study its feasibility.

FAQ
Questions about the TyBOT
How much does the TyBOT cost?
The TyBOT is sold on a written quote, sent within 2 working days. The price depends on the version and its options, the number of robots, delivery and commissioning on your site, training, and the acquisition mode: purchase, rental or RaaS with one monthly fee. Prices are not published because these items change from one project to the next.
Is the TyBOT supplied with an EU declaration of conformity?
Yes. Robot Distribution supplies the EU declaration of conformity with every robot it delivers in Europe. Ask for a copy with your quote and our team sends it with the other documents.
How are delivery and commissioning organised?
The delivery address, the date and the commissioning on site are set out in the written quote, according to your site and the number of robots. Our team can install the robot, map the site and train your staff.
Can I rent the TyBOT or take it as RaaS?
Yes. Rental runs from 1 day to 12 months; RaaS runs from 24 to 60 months with one monthly fee that covers the robot, maintenance, software updates and a replacement robot if one fails. Both are priced in a written quote.
What after-sales service is available?
After-sales service is run from Europe: a service contract, spare parts, repairs and training can be added to a purchase, and maintenance is included in RaaS. The terms are set out in the written quote.
