www.read-wca.comROSENDAHL’S new solution for helical
taping works at high speeds – both
inline and offline.
Cable production at high speeds with
long production lengths has become a
common
requirement
for
manufacturers. Not only does it
support continuous production, but it
also raises the return on investment.
For those cables that require helical
taping, Rosendahl has introduced the
Rota 500 helical tape applicator. It is
designed for polymer tape materials
and supports high-speed taping of up
to 1,000rpm. Products from 20 to
60mm in diameter can be taped on the
Rota 500.
It is a concentric tape applicator that is
used for both inline and offline
solutions. Very long tape lengths can
be applied by using large tape spool
sizes (500mm in diameter and 500mm
in length) on a carton core.
Different cable applications require
different taping materials. Some
examples are as a separator material
between the cable core and the jacket,
or a water-swellable tape or powder
taping, etc.
The Rota 500 not only provides for
flexibility, but also for a high degree of
productivity.
