CAPSTAN

DWC 800 is a double wheel capstan system ensuring slip-free traction and precise speed control.

The DWC 800 (Double Wheel Capstan) serves as a critical traction component within cable manufacturing lines, engineered to maintain precise line speeds for both wires and cables. The synchronized speed control is managed via an AC motor. A main electrical cabinet host the drive for the motor and converter.

Unlike single-belt systems, the DWC 800 utilizes a robust mechanical interface where pneumatic cylinders exert controlled pressure to engage the cable between the drive wheels. This setup ensures the necessary pulling force is consistently applied without slippage.

Operators manage the system through a dedicated operator panel, which features integrated pressure gauges for fi ne-tuning the pneumatic clamping force. Furthermore, the pneumatic engagement—specifi cally the opening and closing of the wheel mechanisms toggled directly from this interface, ensuring streamlined setup and maintenance during production runs.
