Perfect winding with precision
take-ups
Roblon take-ups offer precision winding at high speed (up to
300m/min) and can be used directly in the production line or as
part of a rewinding line. Fitted with a precision unit for winding
of round, rectangular and figure-8 materials they ensure perfectly
wound reels.
The take-ups are ideal
for winding of wires,
cables and plastic
and steel tubes. The
perfect positioning of
material means longer
lengths per reel and
higher pay off speed
of material during
installation/use. When
the reel is traversing,
the sensitive die
holder automatically
controls the traversing
speed in order to
obtain a correct posi-
tion of the dies.
A sensor detects the
flanges of the reel
and changes traversing direction when the dies reach the flanges.
This means no settings of end stops, even when changing reel
size. During operation the lifting arms are adjusting the horizontal
position of the drum in order to maintain a constant winding
point. The traversing reel and the automatic height adjustment
have very little influence on the product. The take-ups operate
with a constant tensile force and the fixed winding point ensures
no strain on the product.
Roblon precision take-ups are easily integrated into new or
existing production lines and can be controlled by the line control.
Because the take-ups are 100 per cent automatic the need to
manually monitor the winding is eliminated just as there are no
health and safety issues associated with guiding the cables to the
reel. Furthermore, Roblon precision take-ups can be supplied with
fencing according to machine directive 2006/42/EC. The Roblon
precision take-ups can wind materials ranging from Ø2-20mm and
are supplied with easily exchangeable pulleys for different product
diameters.
