Compact Belt Haul‑Off for Small Pipes and Profiles

Compact Belt Haul‑Off for Small Pipes and Profiles

Purpose-built for downstream stability on miniature pipes and custom profiles, this compact belt haul-off combines high-traction belts with intelligent motion control to keep line speed steady and surfaces pristine. Its rigid mechanics, precise nip management, and integration-ready controls help you scale from lab trials to continuous production with confidence.

Product Features

Differentiating Advantages

• Precision nip management: fine-resolution pressure control keeps thin walls and lightweight profiles from deforming while maintaining firm traction.
• Smart motion coordination: digital line-speed following with phase trim ensures seamless handoff to calibration and cutting without tension spikes.
• Surface-care belt design: wear-resistant, non-marking covers safeguard glossy and soft polymers, lowering rework rates on cosmetic grades.
• Service-centric layout: belt path is fully accessible; modular subassemblies shorten preventive maintenance and accelerate belt swaps.
• Robust, low-drift mechanics: high-stiffness frame and low-backlash drive train preserve speed accuracy during long runs.

Materials & Process Highlights

• Broad polymer range: supports PVC/uPVC, PE/PP, PA, TPE/TPV, and co-extruded micro-profiles.
• Heat-aware handling: thermal-tolerant belts and contact length tuning stabilize freshly formed extrudates.
• Start/stop finesse: ramp profiles and anti-slip synchronization reduce print lines and chatter marks.

Application Areas

Construction

• Mini conduits, irrigation capillaries, sealing carriers, glazing beads, decorative trims for interiors and façades.

Furniture and Fixtures

• Cable trunking, lightweight corner guards, edge strips, appliance trims, protective mini-profiles.

Automotive and Transport

• Fluid micro-lines, harness protection sleeves, interior trim carriers, sensor tube sheathing for EV/ICE platforms.

Industrial and Laboratory

• Instrumentation tubing, pneumatic lines, OEM sample profiles, pilot-scale and R&D extrusion lines.

Technical Specifications

Throughput & Control

• Speed envelope: 0.3–22 m/min (extended ranges available).
• Product scope: typical OD 2.5–36 mm for pipes; equivalent cross-sections for compact profiles.
• Length accuracy enablement: with external encoder/cutter, typical cut variance within ±0.6–0.9 mm.

Mechanical & Drive System

• Dual endless belts with adjustable wrap length; selectable PU or silicone covers (custom hardness options).
• Independent vector/servo drives with electronic gearing and slip compensation.
• Pneumatic nip actuation with pressure gauge; optional closed-loop nip control.
• Enclosed safety guards, linear guide support, low-noise power transmission.

Controls & Utilities

• PLC with multilingual HMI, recipe storage, and line-speed following input (analog/pulse).
• I/O for cutter/calibrator interlock and alarm signaling; Ethernet-ready on request.
• Installed power: 1.5–4.0 kW (configuration-dependent).
• Power supply: 380–460 V, 3‑phase, 50/60 Hz; other voltages available.
• Air consumption: 0.5–0.7 MPa for nip actuation.

User Recognition

Field Results

• Building-products producer reports steadier OD and fewer nip marks on glossy PVC trims after adopting non-marking belts.
• Lab-to-line success: R&D team transitioned prototypes to production with identical recipes, cutting changeover time by over 25%.

Customer Sentiment

• Operators praise the intuitive HMI and quick belt access; maintenance highlights predictable wear and simplified parts.
• Procurement notes strong lifecycle economics due to low energy draw and reduced scrap.

Market Edge

• Competitive total cost of ownership driven by efficient drives, durable belts, and minimized unplanned downtime.
• Proven integration on compact extrusion lines where floor space, noise, and consistency are critical.
