om;d.c;dar;tan;s-s;avi;w/d;cho;jzaOur accumulators are easily adapted to your production needs. The accumulation capacity and change over speed are adjusted to correspond to the line performance to maximize your productivity.
Our Accumulator MHE SBL 500 has a horizontal beam on which the carriage moves. A set of (moving) wheels are fixed to the carriage. The "fixed" set of wheels with a pneumatic cylinder can move about 400 mm along the beam, and work as a dancer to keep the cable tension low. The cable loops between the two sets of wheels are supported by horizontal cable supports. The machine is equipped with a Unidrive AC drive only. The whole control system is built inside the drive.
The carriage is pulled by a chain from an AC motor which is controlled by a frequency converter. Its speed is controlled by the dancer function and the cable tension is set by adjusting the cylinder air pressure. Three different operating modes can be chosen: 1. DANCER MODE 2. TORQUE MODE. The tension can be adjusted from a control panel which can be mounted freely for easy operation.
The accumulator is automated and the carriage can be jogged when threading the cable. The accumulator uses plastic wheels which allow low tension in addition to great mechanical strength.
| Cable diameter max. | 20 mm |
| Pulling force in the carriage, max. | 5600 N |
Exact values depend on the assembly.

Maillefer has added a Longitudinal Tape Applicator unit into its product portfolio recently. With this unit, customers have the means to apply a radial water blocking feature for various cable types. Water blocking barriers are usually aluminium, copper or plastic based water swellable tapes. The longitudinal tape is applied during the same process as final sheath. Read more

That’s until Legend decided to explore the potential for PEX and PERT products nearly ten years ago. “And what a great decision that was,” sums up Mike Boehk, General Manager of American Legend Manufacturing, based in Michigan, USA.
