ergonomics. Davis-Standard will also feature a caterpillar capstan and HPE extruder. The take-ups and pay-offs integrate simplified engineering and cost efficiency. Machine sizes range from 1,250mm to 5,000mm (48″ to 195″) with the greatest concentration within the 1,800mm to 2,500mm (70″ to 98″) size range. Each is available with a North American standard controls platform, which includes a Yaskawa A-1000 AC drive and Allen-Bradley/Rockwell components encompassing servo drive, PLC (programmable logic controller) and HMI (human machine interface). For international projects, machines are equipped with a Siemens AC drive, PLC and HMI with a Mitsubishi servo drive. Technology is available as “stand-alone” (running in torque control) with a dancer or with an accumulator.

easy to maintain. Advantages for wire and cable application include increased torque capacity for high viscosity resins and custom options. In addition, Davis-Standard will be discussing its new cut and feed machine. Designed for efficiency, this unit facilitates timely transfers from one take-up to the other, while minimising operator involvement. This expedites the take-up reel change process during insulation and enables wire and cable manufacturers to boost outputs. The ability to address market demand in terms of performance and cost efficiency is just one aspect of Davis-Standard’s Global Advantage™ in wire and cable. Another is the company’s experience in supplying extruders and associated wire and cable equipment for more than 70 years. Applications include aerial cable, building wire, coaxial and composite cable, video pair cable, tray cable, CATV, THHM and THWN wire, among others.

Also being shown is a caterpillar capstan and an HPE extruder.

The capstan being shown featuresmultiple independently loaded pressure tracks.
