Equipment

Solving’s U-shaped cable reel Mover handles cable drums weighing up to 20 tons in a modern newly-constructed high voltage test laboratory within the production facility. The air bearings are slide mounted to facilitate easy withdrawal for maintenance even if the transporter is loaded. 

Advantages

Fitted with adjustable forks, the Mover is capable of handling reels with different diameters and is used regularly during three production shifts. Two powered rollers allow rotation of the cable reel in both directions using a built-in pneumatic drive unit, allowing easy access to cable ends.

Result

Being controlled completely pneumatically and containing no electrical components, Solving’s air bearing-based spark-free Mover meets the explosion-proof requirements of a high voltage test laboratory.
