Description

VAHLE Motor-Driven Cable Reels

Smart Reeling Systems for Reliable Power, Data and Media Transmission — mobile and moving industrial equipment is typically supplied through flexible cable and hose systems carrying power, data and other media. These systems easily follow the movements of crane trolleys, grab arms and conveyor systems. For safe operation, however, cables and hoses must be wound and unwound automatically at the correct length. Over long distances in particular, cable weight and friction forces can load the system — which is why some cable reels are motor driven. The motor drive winds and unwinds the cables in a controlled way, while the brake mechanism prevents unwanted movement. VAHLE offers motor-driven cable reels in a wide range of sizes, used everywhere from port cranes and steel plants to environmental technology, mobile vehicles and loading machines. The systems feature dedicated conductor-ring technology for reliable transmission of power, control, data and video signals; even fiber-optic cables can be integrated on request. The corrosion-protected reel bodies can also be equipped with rotary unions for gas and liquid transfer, and depending on the application, winding is cylindrical or spiral. VAHLE motor-driven cable reels are also an ideal solution for retrofitting container handling cranes.
