The line design introduced in the last K-year is based on the following principles: optimum accessibility and operation, as well as easy maintenance. “An angled flap allows the belt haul-off to be opened completely, similar to a modern kitchen cabinet, so that the machine operator can carry out maintenance and process adjustments while standing upright,” says Heinrich Dohmann, Director of Mechanical Engineering, describing the unique selling point of the new belt haul-off, which ensures ergonomics in the workplace. The pullStream B63-1000 WS is designed for small pipes with a diameter between 5 and 63 mm. “The concept is so convincing that we are already revising the sister model for pipes up to 125 mm in the same way,” promises Heinrich Dohmann.
Technically, battenfeld-cincinnati belt haul-offs are known for their finely adjustable speed control. The new belt haul-offs also offers the option of adjusting the upper belt transversely – by 0.5° in each direction. “The inclined position allows us to actively counteract any twisting of the pipe, which guarantees precise labeling at the same pipe position, even at high speeds of up to 300 m/min,” Heinrich Dohmann continues.
In addition, the belt haul-off is equipped with a modern 10" touch display installed on an interactive support arm at the inlet of the haul-off. The operating concept is based on the proven BCtouch DS from battenfeld-cincinnati and enables intuitive operation of the line components.
