In January this year, Propack launched
Propaflex, designed to guarantee total,
high quality protection for all products
sold in rolls.
Propaflex is a plastic sheet extruded
so as to obtain two different surfaces:
the inner one is smooth and clings
perfectly to rounded surfaces, the
outer one is specially undulated,
reduces friction with other materials
and is capable of withstanding violent
impacts, heavy weights, shocks or
compressions.
An addition to this is that the company has now put a plastic band on Propaflex to
facilitate the packaging of the rolls. Studying the needs of the users, Propack discovered
that it was important to have the ability to steady Propaflex when the reel is completely
packed. The best way of doing this was to use a plastic band in the Propaflex external
surface. This allows the user to roll up the reel with Propaflex and then to easily fasten it
with the plastic band.

www.propackgroup.comThe Gauder Group has designed and manufactured a comprehensive range of
innovative concentric heads for multi-wire and taping applications.
Pourtier’s latest development
enables cable manufacturers
to enhance their taping/
screening process for the
production of LV, MV and
HV, as well as control and
special cables. The ‘TEC 630-
95-dc’ model is used to place
a screen, armour or a counter
helix on a bundle of insulated
conductors – tape or multi-
wire – at high speed (up to
600rpm).
The product capacity of the
630mm reel (600kg) being
30 times greater than one
of a single pad used on tangential heads, allows the operator to save 85 minutes
for pad change! Other main characteristics are a fine tuned tension control by two
AC motors with vector drives (for independent driving of screening/taping head
and reel) and an accurate lay length thanks to encoder for precise adjustment to
linear speed.
This version proves to be particularly interesting for counter helix application,
especially with the double loading ‘dc’ doubling the product capacity.
As an example, to apply a counter-helix tape of 10mm width and 0.2mm thick
around a cable of 20mm diameter with a lay length of 400mm, the length of tape
on the reel would be 33,700m, which represents almost three hours of production
time at a rotation speed of 500rpm.
