Description
Belt Caterpillar BCA 21 is a true workhorse of the cable industry. It is used in various insulation and sheathing applications, from low voltage to high and extra high voltage cables.
It has a robust steel frame. The gripping pressure and the belt tension are pneumatically adjustable. Belts are driven through a gear transmission by an AC motor.
The power transmission includes one speed controlled AC motor directly connected to an angle gearbox. The motor is equipped with an electromagnetic brake.
