For designers and operators of winding and spooling equipment, Uhing "rolling ring" traverse winding drives now feature a mechanical pitch adjustment lever.
Amacoil now offers a grease fitting option which attaches to the shaft wipers on Uhing rolling ring drive assemblies. When the drive is running the grease fittings facilitate automatic shaft lubrication while the wipers clean the shaft, removing dust...
A "moving spool" winding machine based on the rolling ring linear motion principle has been introduced by Amacoil, Inc. Instead of traversing the material onto the spool, the moving spool winder moves the spool back-and-forth to create a smooth, even...
An extra bearing option for Uhing rolling ring linear drives doubles the axial thrust capacity without forcing users to redesign for a larger size drive. Model RG linear drives are available with 3- or 4-ring bearing assemblies inside the drive unit....
To enhance the performance and extend the longevity of Uhing linear drive assemblies, an optional line of linear slide load carriers has been introduced. The slides remove twisting and bending forces from the drive unit, and from the guide rails and supports....
A backlash-free design eliminates the need for additional drive system preload in Amacoil/Uhing linear drive units and assemblies which are used in a wide range of converting, finishing and packaging processes including slitting, coating, x-y table movement,...
Engineers and production personnel may simplify spooling machine set-up, operation and maintenance, with a traverse winding system from Amacoil/Uhing which does not require its own drive motor. Instead, the traverse system is linked to the take-up reel...
A new traversing assembly from Amacoil/Uhing is designed with two, side-by-side load carriers on which to mount take-up material guides. A single rolling ring linear actuator drives both load carriers permitting near non-stop production during take-up...
