Feeding systems are solutions that supply wire or cable in a controlled manner from reels, spools or containers to processing machines. Depending on the application, these systems may consist of dereelers, unwinders, measuring units, tension relief devices or active speed control systems. The goal is always the same: a stable material flow without unwanted pulling forces or sag.
An irregular or uncontrolled feed can result in:
inaccurate lengths
damage to insulation or conductors
increased machine wear
production downtime
A well-matched feeding system, on the other hand, ensures reliable repeatability, higher output speeds and a longer service life for both machine and cable.
The feeding systems in this category are suitable for:
single-core and multi-core wires
flexible and more rigid cables
thin signal wires up to heavier industrial cables
They are used across a wide range of industries, including industrial manufacturing, control panel building, machine construction, automation and electrical engineering.
Feeding systems are often integrated with automatic or semi-automatic processing machines. By perfectly matching the feed rate to the machine’s processing speed, a synchronised process is achieved, which is essential for high product quality and process reliability.
No two production lines are the same. Smans provides expert advice in selecting the right feeding system based on your cable specifications, required capacity and future expansion plans. This ensures you invest in a solution that is efficient today and scalable for tomorrow.
