Metzner DR Series

Motorised and powerful high-performance unwinders

Motorised cable unwinders ensure that cable is fed safely into the cable processing machine. They are the ideal complement to your wire processing machines for automatic wire feed-in at high processing speeds while working gently with the lowest possible tractive force. Electrically driven cable unwinders contribute significantly to the constant length accuracy of your wire processing machine. Missing or imprecisely working cable unwinders are often the cause of temporary cable stretching during the material feed-in. As a rule, the material contracts again after processing, with the result that the correct processing dimensions change after a short rest period and no longer correspond to the desired result.

Metzner cable unwinders reliably prevent these unwanted interference factors and also ensure simple material handling while automated operation proceeds simultaneously. With the DR unwinders, all functions such as the unwinding of the cable wires, tensioning of the cable reels and lifting of the cable reels are motorised. This makes handling the often heavy cable reels much easier and saves you valuable time when changing the cable reels compared to other designs. The modern electrical clamping system with automatic centring of the cable reels renders unnecessary reel axles and adapter plate.

For high processing speeds with gentle operation

Metzner unwinders of the DR series enable reliable cable feed-in at high processing speeds while at the same time working gently with the lowest possible tensile force. They contribute significantly to the consistent length accuracy of the products.
