SH-600 Spoolholder

Key features SH-600

+ Consistent supply of material: Steady feeding reduces reloading, enhancing efficiency.

+ Tension management: Maintains proper tension to prevent tangles, ensuring accurate cuts and avoiding jams.

+ Enhanced workspace utilization: Spool organization keeps the workspace tidy.

+ Automation and increased productivity: Feeds material automatically, reducing manual work and allowing unattended operation of the CS-1100.

+ Reduction of downtime: Large capacity minimizes reloads, enabling continuous operation.

+ Quality control: Consistent feed ensures precise cuts and high-quality output.

Functionality of the machine

The electronically driven spool holder has key features that match the CS-1100 machine, ensuring smooth integration and top performance. Here are the main parts and their functions:

1. Control panel: The control panel is placed like the one on the CS-1100 and is made of black plastic at the back to match its look. It has physical buttons for power on/off, jog, start, stop, speed control, 0-position, and an emergency stop.
2. Spool holder: Designed to hold and secure the spool with a clamping ring on the shaft. This makes sure the material feeds smoothly into the cutting and straightening machine.
3. Cable tensioner with sensor: An arm sticks out from the housing and acts as a tensioner. It has a position sensor that helps the software keep the right tension as the material feeds into the CS-1100, ensuring the cable feeds smoothly without any issues.
4. Motor-driven shaft: The spool holder’s shaft is driven by a motor located at the rear, ensuring consistent and controlled feeding of material.
5. Robust construction: The housing rests on a 5mm steel plate with leveling wheels identical to those on the CS-1100, ensuring stability and mobility. The overall design includes the same radius profiles on the corners and a matching color coating.
6. Easy access for maintenance: A rear door provides easy access to the electrical controls, simplifying maintenance and adjustments.

For the machine to operate efficiently, the small OD MI cables need to be provided on spools, not coils. The machine can handle several spool diameters as long as it fits on the drive shaft. Ask our sales department for more information about this.

Operation steps

1. Loading the Spool:
   • Step 1: Place the spool of MI cable onto the spool holder.
   • Step 2: Secure the spool with a clamping ring on the shaft to ensure it stays in place.
2. Initial setup:
   • Step 1: Manually unwind a small length of wire from the spool.
   • Step 2: Pass the wire under the tensioner arm, ensuring it is properly aligned.
   • Step 3: Insert the end of the wire into the CS-1100 cutting and straightening machine.
3. Automatic adjustment:
   • Step 1: Once the CS-1100 starts to pull the wire, the tensioner arm will automatically move to its preset 0-position.
   • Step 2: The position sensor and motor-driven spool shaft work together, managed by software, to maintain the correct tension on the wire.
4. Continuous operation:
   • Step 1: Use the control panel to manage the spool holder’s functions.
   • Step 2: Adjust settings such as power on/off, start, stop, speed control, and emergency stop as needed.
   • Step 3: The spool holder will continuously feed the wire into the CS-1100, allowing for smooth and uninterrupted operation.

These steps ensure that the spool holder operates efficiently, providing a steady and consistent feed of wire into the cutting and straightening machine, minimizing manual intervention, and optimizing productivity.

Conclusion

The electronically driven SH-600 spool holder is an essential tool for the CS-1100 cutting and straightening machine, especially for small diameter cables. It ensures a steady supply of material, keeps the right tension, and works efficiently. Using this spool holder, industries can boost productivity, improve quality control, and cut down on downtime, making it a must-have for small diameter cutting jobs.

Horizontal spool holder

Also, make sure to check out our horizontal spool holder. It is designed to work with our CS-1100 and can hold cables larger than 2.0mm in diameter. This spool holder does not need an electric drive because the cable itself provides enough resistance to prevent tangling. It is built to be user-friendly, with a convenient height for easy and comfortable coil changes.

Features:

• Structure and Design: Sturdy base with wheels for easy movement and a central column supporting a circular platform.
• Top Platform: Holds and rotates the spool, with slots and mounting points to secure it in place.
• Material: Made of metal, perfect for industrial or heavy-duty use.
• Adjustability and Stability: Stable design with potential height adjustability.
• Intended Use: Ideal for holding and managing large spools of wire, cable, tubing, and similar materials.
