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 SBS 1200 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 to give constant torque, which results in approximately constant cable tension. Cable tension can be adjusted from a control panel which can be freely mounted for easy operation.
The accumulator is automated, and the carriage can be jogged when threading the cable. The accumulator uses either composite, aluminium or coated aluminium wheels which allow low tension in addition to great mechanical strength.
| Cable diameter, max. | 45 mm |
| Pulling force in the carriage, max. | 15 000 N |
Exact values depend on the assembly.
