Single Station Starter Pack System
Customers who wish to develop the spooling business are often supplying pancakes of material to their
customers and have had a request to supply spools. This can be achieved by using our single station
starter pack which has the capability of taking a single pancake and creating a spool from this.
Typically a spool will contain 10 pancakes of material. Our single station starter pack is a low cost
unit and provides this facility. Pancakes are spliced creating the spool required for the end user.
This means that the end user has a longer length of material and, therefore, can run their equipment
for a longer period without having to stop and splice the pancake. If the production requirement increases
then the converter can move to a larger system which will take multiple pancakes and spool them simultaneously.
We have supplied, on many occasions, our 4-station starter pack which has ultimately increased to 8-stations
due to the increase in production requirements. Generally this equipment is processing narrower width
materials over the range 6 mm to 30 mm and the end user has a requirement for both pancakes and spools,
therefore, allowing the product to be made in a single format i.e. pancakes and then transferred to spools
if required. As the business increases the equipment would move towards the contract spooling equipment
which can have heads ranging from 6-stations to 48-stations depending on the particular requirements and the
production needs.
De-spooling equipment is also available from Double R Controls Ltd. which ranges from a simple manually
braked de-spooler up to a more sophisticated driven de-spooler for operating at speeds of 600 metre
per minute.
