capstans

By cable, fo

catterpullers, belt-type capstans, wheel-capstans, multiple wire capstans

In the field of catterpullers and capstans KHU Sondermaschinen offers a broad range of equipment tailored to your specific need. Whether big or small – we build them all.

This machine consists of a solid construction which can be bolted to the floor and therefore is easy to integrate into your existing production line.

The belts can be individually adjusted according to your requirements. Pressing and tensioning can be done mechanically and pneumatically. The desired pressure can be steplessly adjusted. The high number of reels results in less wear and tear of the belts and a soft handling of the product (e.g. cable). According to your requirements the capstan can also be equipped with a three-phase motor and a gear box.

Wheel-capstans for almost all requirements: cable, ribbon, sheathed pellets. In addition to our stock capstans we provide individually designed capstans for your purpose.

KHU Sondermaschinen also fabricates take-off caterpillars, drum pull-offs, multiple wire capstans. There are no limits regarding size and design. Contact us today for your quote.

QSVM

By cable, general, innovation

The first tubeless tubular strander – the Q-SVM.

Our all new prototype of a high-speed strander – a paradigm shift in cable production.

This new high-speed cable strander is lighter, safer and faster then conventional tubular stranding machines, incorporating many more interesting features.

Zugfestigkeitstest

Crush Test

By cable, fo
Q-TCT 600

According to IEC-794-1-E3-Crush

The cable sample is tightened into the testing device, then pinched between a stationary flat steel plate and a movable 100 mm (length) steel plate whereupon transverse pressure is applied on the cable sample.

The desired pressure has to be defined.

An automatic STOP is possible after the expiry of the programmed time.

This test can be executed automatically and manually.

Makromelt machine

By cable, cable manufacture
This machine is designed to inject liquid synthetic, so called makromelt onto assembled cable ends.
Up to 24 moulds are mounted on a round table. A servo motor drives a piston pump which injects the hot liquid synthetic by volumetrically metering into the mould.
The water cooled moulds are easy to replace which adds to productivity and efficiency.
With this machine it is also possible to use various moulds at the same time thanks to the individually adjustable amount of makromelt volume per station. This makes cable manufacturing very efficient for cables with different types of plugs.
Above the pump is the heated repository which will refill itself automatically by the means of a suction device.
Production sequence
The desired volume of makromelt is defined on the control panel.
After pre heating, the machine starts the automatic manufacturing process.
The plugs are placed upwards into the moulds while the cable is free-hanging. Longer cables can be attached to the cable holder beneath the mould.
For the alignment of the pins a fitted counter plug is to be mounted. Hence the round table feeds the injection tool with the cable by rotation. The mould with the inserted plug is then pressed pneumatically towards the opening of the injection tool starting the moulding process automatically.
After attaining the volume the mould goes back into the starting position and the round table rotates to the next station.
The round table is designed to hold 10 or 22 stations for cooling of the injected makromelt, depending on the machine type.
When reaching the end position the finished cable is to be removed from the machine.
