Energy-efficient pulling and winding

$15.00

Winders demonstrate that ambitious power reduction goals are within reach, particularly for the wire and cable industry. Anyone who takes a closer look at the operating instructions will notice that the ratio of net power requirement to installed power is very small, a condition known as a power “mismatch.” Depending on spool diameter, rotational speed, and pulling force, wire and cable manufacturers have until now been forced to pay out (every year) a lot of money for unnecessary power consumption.
