Help with prototype for a hexagonal bar straightening machine.
I designed a prototype for a hexagonal bar straightening machine, but the results were not satisfactory. The main issue is that the process takes too long, as each bar requires multiple adjustments to find the correct pressure point for straightening.
Currently, we use two roller stands to support the hex bars (ranging from 2.5 to 6 meters in length). We manually rotate each bar to identify the bent side before positioning it in the straightener.
Here is the model: desempenador / endireitador de barras
The machine is functional and does straighten the bars, but it is too slow and inefficient for practical use. What I need is a solution that can straighten the bar in a single pass, without manual rotation or multiple adjustments.
I would greatly appreciate any advice or ideas to improve the design or approach.

i think this problem can't be solved with mechanical adjustment rather you can adjust the motor horse power
My professional opinion.
Anyone fell free to add...
Well , I do think that 1 motor per 2 Rotor bolts would be a good solution
meaning it would require 2 motors rather than 1 motor, while the axis of rotation of both motor should be same there should not be any runout or indifference between them with respect to rotation axis
the same can be acheived by 1 motor given you increase the horsepower and the transmission should have highest possible efficiency i.e you can use Belts for the same
