Highlights
Dual Profile Capacity
The pulling window was designed to accommodate two 15-inch windows for carbon fiber spar cap profiles.
Integrated Spool Winding
Continuous carbon pultrusion sheets feed from the pultrusion machine into the spooling winder.
Cycle Coordination
The winder matches line speed, then increases speed after the saw cut to allow banding and unloading.
Adjustable Handling
Adjustable platen width and guides help accommodate material width changes and sheet variance.
Spool Unloading Support
A collapsible spindle supports spool unloading, while the system allows manual banding of the carbon fiber spool.
