Metzner PF Series
for feeding materials unwound from a device without drive
Material feeders from Metzner are applied wherever materials are unwound from a device without drive. This includes, for instance, cable and profile reels, spools, loose rings or processing directly from a box or cable shelf.
Metzner feeding devices ensure tension-free material feed to your processing machine. Integrated sensors regulate the optimum unwinding speed in connection with a contact-free loop control or dancer arm, with a speed of up to 180 m/min. Depending on the model, the feeders can transport materials up to 100 mm wide and 30 mm high.
Thanks to our many years of experience in cable processing, the PF series offers you a choice of three compact feeders. For materials with very small diameters (e.g. strands) the PF 50.25 feeder offers an ideal and inexpensive solution. Larger diameters are transported with the PF 235.30. The PF 235.95 is available for all materials that are not round (e.g. ribbon cable).
The contact pressure of the PF series can be adjusted by hand wheel or spring. A pneumatic control of the contact pressure is optional.
For unwinding processes without drive
Metzner PF series material feeders are used wherever cable wires and strands are unwound from a device without drive.
