Are you using a single reeler for pipe production? Do you need a way to speed up production?

Let your operator easily handle transfers while producing upstream at full speed.
Description
Increase your average extrusion line speed by creating a buffer zone between extrusion and reeling operations. By adding an accumulator into your line, pipe transfers from a full reel to a fresh empty reel are executed by your operator in a calm and timely fashion. No need to stop the line. Run at full constant speed while offering increased operator safety.


Deliverables
Engineering review of the existing equipment including layout and calculations to reveal the possibilities with a new accumulator. The MHE SBL800 is provided as a standalone component or a as machine that is fully integrated into the line control and supervision system.


Options
  • Additional single reeler available on request
  • Winding solutions for longer runs.
