Our automatic dual take-ups are known for high reel change-over reliability in any application at top line speeds. The dual take-ups are designed to work independently from line controls, therefore providing an easy adaptation and a fast plug & play installation to any line.
Our Automatic Dual Take-up EKP 1000K is designed to serve versatile applications in fibre optic cable extrusion lines. The down-time and maintenance need have been minimized through careful choice of components and use of up-to-date technology.
Self diagnostics of the take-up enables quick troubleshooting. Easy access to service points together with overall ergonomics and safety features offer the best working conditions for the operator.
The machine is designed to work independently from line controls, therefore providing easy adaptation to any line. A higher automation level of the line can be reached by integrating it in the line control by signals. To guarantee fast start-up, the take-up is delivered with tested interconnection cables. It goes through thorough testing with wire in full speed. Also with customer reels, if available six weeks prior to shipment.
