‘Free-Rotation’ Carrier for wire braiding

$15.00

A new plug-in, free-rotation carrier for improving quality and productivity in the manufacture of wire braided hose is presented in this paper. Carriers on a braiding machine hold the bobbin of wire while they feed the wire into the braid and control the tension. Each carrier is fixed (coupled) to a shuttle that transports the carrier through the braiding machine. These new concept carriers, now being introduced into the aftermarket for the production of wire braided rubber hose, are changing traditional ideas about braiding.
