more on Penguin Wire Braider - Vertical:
•
Braidmaster
is a high performance precision braider. This wire braider is engineered
to give sustained performance over long periods.
•
The
machine is built with a steel framed structure. The drives and take-off
are located at the top of the machine. The vertical configuration occupies
a floor area of 1.7x1.6m. The spindles can be accessed from either side
through conveniently placed safety interlock doors. The deck assembly
is engineered to ensure smooth sliding and exchange of shoes. Exceptional
smooth running, minimum vibration and very low noise level are salient
features of the machine.
•
The
wire carriers are of proven design. They are engineered to perfection
for trouble free performance. The wire carriers have bobbin capacity of
820cc. Molded integral plastic carriers with shoes are also available
for yarn braiding applications on this machine.
•
The
performance of the machine is continuously monitored by a PLC. This provides
continuous monitoring of pitch and production data. Essential production
data can be stored and retrieved conveniently by this arrangement. Optic
sensors are used to sense the presence of wire in the bobbin. Electronic
circuit senses breakage of wire strands. All faults are monitored through
the PLC. This machine incorporates all features required by the hose industry
for producing wire braided high-pressure hoses.
•
The
machine can operate speeds upto 175 horn gear rpm. The deck speed can
be varied through change gears. For haul-off of large diameter hoses without
slippage, a 250mm wide, 750mm diameter capstan is provided. The initial
take off tension is provided by dead weight arrangements.
•
The
braiding machine is designed based on research and development experience
for over a decade in the field of hose braiding machines. Penguin also
manufactures cure tape wrapping and unwrapping machine, wire winding machine,
spares and accessories for the hose industry.
