Reels handling represents for Dalmec one of the most common requests.
For this reason, the wide range of Dalmec manipulators, equipped with customized gripping devices, suitable for the different types of reels, effectively responds to the different needs of the customer.
Dalmec has always been used to building customized machines and knows well that the characteristics of the reel are the main discriminating factor for the realization of the manipulator. With very varied dimensions and weight, made up of different materials from plastic film, paper to steel, reels handing require a very careful analysis during the design phase.
The very nature of the load imposes the choice between different gripping solutions for similar types of reels, a very delicate material does not allow the reel to be gripped on the external diameter without deteriorating it. It must be handled with gripping devices with expanding mandrel and with a pin tool suitable for gripping the reel in the inside hole. “Gripping of reels in the inside hole“.
Other types of reels will require the grip on the external diameter of the reel “Gripping of reels on external diameter“. The gripping of reels of ferrous materials, on the other hand, will require the use of magnets. “Gripping of reels with magnets“.
