Wire pull control improvements on skip stranding machines through electrical system

$15.00

The traditional wire pull control on skip stranding machines has shown certain limitations in terms of consistency and accuracy of the pulling condition established upstream from the stranding point. The first skip stranding machine based on a radically new concept design was delivered in 2005. It features the installation of a fully electrical system on the six cradles to control the wire pull during uncoiling. This paper describes functions and features of this new electrical system.
