Questions About This Machine
Is the rotation speed the cable line speed?
No. Rotation is stated in rpm; the linear haul-off speed must be specified separately with the required lay length.
Which take-up reel sizes are listed?
The sheet lists 2000, 2500, 3150, 3500, 4000 and 4200 mm take-up reel diameters.
