net;ns.;tio;olu;ons;usi;xtr;y/e;troOur belt caterpillars ensure the stability of line speed and are highly reliable in long runs as well as with high pulling forces. The stable line speed minimizes cable diameter variations.
Belt Caterpillar BCA 21 is a true workhorse of the cable industry. It is used in various insulation and sheathing applications, from low voltage to high and extra high voltage cables.
It has a robust steel frame. The gripping pressure and the belt tension are pneumatically adjustable. Belts are driven through a gear transmission by an AC motor.
The power transmission includes one speed controlled AC motor directly connected to an angle gearbox. The motor is equipped with an electromagnetic brake.
| Cable diameter, max. | 180 mm |
| Cable diameter, min. | 4 mm |
| Pulling force, max. | 25 kN |
| Line speed, max. | 200 m/min |
| Gripping length | 2100 mm |
| Pressing force at 5 bar | 27 kN |
| Dimensions L x W x H | 3240 x 1040 x 1655 mm |
Exact values depend on the assembly.

Over the past 30 years, Maillefer has delivered and started hundreds of catenary continuous vulcanization (CCV) lines globally. We can confirm that successful cable quality needs a perfect interaction between all the various components in a CCV line. To that end, Maillefer and Sikora GmbH, invented a means for securing the cable quality for both past delivered CCV lines and those to be delivered in the future. They named the device Siccon 600.

The productivity of an optical cable manufacturing line can be significantly improved by increasing line speed. The buffering process has introduced entirely new limits for these speeds, making the start-up procedure increasingly important. A rapid ramp-up to production speed may generate substantial scrap before the process stabilizes. Read more
