Device for producing a reinforcement

A device for producing a reinforcement, comprising:

• an automated positioning mechanism for positioning a longitudinal wire and a cross wire of the reinforcement;
• and
• at least one binding unit comprising at least one binding element,
• wherein the at least one binding unit of the device automatically connects the wires positioned by the automated positioning mechanism via the at least one binding element at a binding point,
• wherein the automated positioning mechanism comprises a linear adjuster, and a positioning unit comprising a pivoting arrangement that positions the at least one binding unit,
• wherein the positioning unit adapts a movement of the at least one binding unit to a movement of the longitudinal wire and/or the cross wire such that the at least one binding unit remains stationary relative to the binding point during a binding process, and
• wherein during the production of the reinforcement, the device moves the longitudinal wires in a conveying direction along a central longitudinal axis and simultaneously around the central longitudinal axis.
