Spooling line for New Zealand

PS Costruzioni Meccaniche Srl has recently installed a fully automatic spooling line at General Cables Company, New Zealand. The line can work both in tandem with the extruder and off line, as an independent unit, together with two Portal Pay Off systems, which avoid stopping the line during the reel change. When working in tandem with the extruder, the machine can reach a linear speed of 300 metres per minute.
