Belt Caterpillar BCA 21 is a true workhorse of the cable industry. It is used in various insulation and sheathing applications, from low voltage to high and extra high voltage cables.
It has a robust steel frame. The gripping pressure and the belt tension are pneumatically adjustable. Belts are driven through a gear transmission by an AC motor.
The power transmission includes one speed controlled AC motor directly connected to an angle gearbox. The motor is equipped with an electromagnetic brake.
| Cable diameter, max. | 180 mm |
| Cable diameter, min. | 4 mm |
| Pulling force, max. | 25 kN |
| Line speed, max. | 200 m/min |
| Gripping length | 2100 mm |
| Pressing force at 5 bar | 27 kN |
| Dimensions L x W x H | 3240 x 1040 x 1655 mm |
Exact values depend on the assembly.
