Servo Six-Claw Pipe Haul-Off Machine

Product Features

Precision Traction with Six-Claw Synchronization

• Each claw is driven by a high-torque servo motor for independent, closed-loop control, ensuring uniform gripping force and zero slippage across the pipe circumference.
• Electronic cam and vector synchronization maintain consistent line speed and tension, minimizing ovality and wall-thickness variation.

Wide Material Compatibility and Gentle Handling

• Optimized for PVC, CPVC, PE, HDPE, PPR, PB, PEX, and multilayer composite pipes.
• Large-area, wear-resistant rubber pads and adjustable contact geometry reduce surface marking while maximizing frictional traction.

Modular, Heavy-Duty Construction

• Rigid, vibration-damped frame with linear guideways ensures long-term alignment and low maintenance.
• Quick-change pad modules and tool-free jaw adjustment accelerate product changeovers.

Smart Control and Industry 4.0 Integration

• PLC + HMI with recipe management, digital torque control, and real-time monitoring (speed, tension, power).
• Supports OPC UA/MQTT for MES/SCADA connectivity; remote diagnostics and alarm analytics cut downtime.

Energy-Efficient Drive Technology

• High-efficiency servo drives with regenerative braking reduce energy consumption by 15–30% vs. AC inverter systems.
• Adaptive traction algorithms automatically tune speed and pressure to product diameter and material.

Clean, Quiet, and Safe Operation

• Low-noise servo actuation and fully enclosed safety guards.
• Conforms to CE/UL safety directives; integrated emergency stop and over‑torque protection.
