GMP’s drums and reels

GMP Slovakia manufactures both large drums for cable and reels for wire drawing. For energy cable there are two models: SD-Structural Drum, which has an internal surface of the flanges in contact with the cable that is flat, and CD-Corrugated Drum, which has a corrugated surface. The choice of the model depends on the customer’s specifications, but both models can be supplied with the same characteristics and can be used for the same application. These models can be supplied as a knock-down drum to reduce transport costs. Assembly at the customer’s plant can be completed by the customer or by GMP Slovakia’s team. The company also supplies different equipment for the cable industry, suitable to handle drums of large dimensions. The range of products also includes standard and customised reels for drawing. Many models are available, including the DW-Double Wall and FM-Fully Machined. The first reel has double flange and is usually machined only on the barrel; the second model has a strong flange and is completely machined on all reel surfaces, inside and outside. Many dimensions and options are available, such as reinforced barrel and accumulating wire system on the flange. The company also manufactures many models of pallet and stands for stocking reels, made in welded steel structures and of different dimensions. All pallets and stands are designed by its technical team with a modern graphic system, in order to guarantee the best functionality. GMP Slovakia – Slovakia Website : www.gmp-slovakia.com
