Meltech announces new MT-DR Automated Dual Reel Take-up Machines

Wire processing specialist, Meltech Engineering Ltd announces the new MT-DR range of automated dual reel take-up machines for continuous production of data communications and LAN cables, general wiring and heat shrink and wire tubing applications. The MT-DR range offers winding speeds up to 1,500 metre per minute. Based on the classic Biwater DR take-up machine design, Meltech has re-engineered the machine and its control system to give improved winding control, layering, and speed and length control at point of changeover. Available in drum sizes from 400mm to 1,600mm, the MT-DR is a robust machine that can be readily integrated within an existing wire production line. Accurate winding control lies at the heart of the flexibility of the MT-DR range. Meltech's proprietary control technology calculates the precise tensioning of the wire during winding. The control system also features a selection of manufacturer specific ‘recipes’ based on winding pitch settings, drum sizes and optimum layering patterns. The Meltech dual reel take-up machines are available in both semi and fully automated operation. In semi-automated mode the drum is manually loaded and unloaded. When fully automated the drum is automatically loaded and unloaded. In addition, the MT-DR machines offers a smooth upgrade path allowing higher capacity drums to be accommodated to meet production requirements. Meltech also offers a full service and spares back-up service, including spares, service and refurbishment for original Biwater equipment. For more details on the MT-DR range of automated dual reel take-up machines for continuous wire production call Meltech Engineering on +44 (0)1254 691488 and e-mail: sales@meltech.co.uk.
