The gear box, free from backlash, guarantees extremely stable and precise running.
The capstan is designed to serve as a metering unit in vulcanizing lines to ensure reliable operation in long runs. The conductor is guided between a rubber coated driven pulley and a pneumatically tensioned rubber belt. This ensures that the taped delicate conductors are not damaged.
| Pulley diameter, max | 3000 mm |
| Line product diameter, max. | 150 mm |
| Tractive force, max. | 45 kN |
| Line speed, max. | 25 or 50 m/min |
| Dimensions L x W x H | 4871 x 2114 x 4195 mm |
Exact values depend on the assembly.
