Endo motor-driven cable reels are used to supply power to movable equipment for automatic winding of flexible power or control cables. The reels can have a spiral or cylindrical winding configuration. The cable is pulled out horizontally or vertically.
All drives work in the direction of cable travel. The unit uncoils the cable by extending the cable from the reel body against the torque provided by the drive unit, which adjusts to the travel speed of the reel until the reel comes to a standstill. For safety, a brake avoids uncontrolled cable payout in case the drive loses power.
Application:
- Hose reels for air, liquids and gase
- Tag line reels for handling steel ropes
- Reels for control, signal and high frequency transmission cables
- Offshore reels, including on ships.
