PreFeeder 2500
Universal prefeeder with motorized reel handling for spool weights up to 40 or 80 kg (88 or 177 lbs.) depending on version.
Function
- Quick loading and unloading
- Simple assembly of the required control elements for easy handling
- Adjustable forward and backward feed direction
Customer Benefit
The PreFeeder 2500 is the perfect accessory for feeding material to downstream
processing machines. The PreFeeder 2500 feeds material at variable speeds while
minimizing stress to the material being fed. This allows the material to be processed
with the highest possible precision by downstream processing units.
Easy handling when changing spools allows for short changeover time.
Options
Prefeeder loop control with the PreFeederControl 3 instead of the standard
dancer arm type accumulator.
Applications
With Dancer Arm Accumulator
- Flexible wire, cable and tubing up to 12 mm in diameter
With PreFeederControl 3
- Less flexible materials and larger cables in diameter
