Automatic Cable Measuring System to Motorize Cut to Length Operations
The operation of the Roto-Drive is extremely simple. A push button in front of the machine lifts the upper roller to allow the introduction of the cable. A trim cut is made when used in conjunction with a cut-off unit and the electronic counter is set to the length (and number of pieces wanted with the RD-505A). The 'start' push button or foot switch is depressed and "presto" the Roto-Drive dispenses and feeds the cable to a cut-off unit at 24" per second. The cycle repeats until the number of pieces wanted is reached. (RD-505A)
A prescaler adjustment allows the counter to be calibrated to the exact measured cable length. Because of this feature, the Roto-Drive dispenses the exact amount of cable wanted eliminating costly rejects and rework. Accessories are available such as motorized pay-off with dancer for heavy coils or when cut to length dimensions tolerances exceed normal specifications.
