WHY DO I NEED A POWERED WIRE PAYOFF?
-
Consistent Tension: An AWC dereeler maintains a constant pulling force on the wire as it unwinds, which is critical for forming uniform springs and precise wire shapes. Inconsistent tension, common when pulling manually, can cause variations in the spring's free length and load deflection.
-
Dimensional Accuracy: Smooth and consistent feeding enhances the accuracy of downstream operations like wire straightening, cutting, and bending, ensuring all parts meet tight tolerances and design specifications.
-
Preventing Material Damage: Proper tension control prevents excessive stretching or damage to the wire's surface or insulation (if applicable), which could lead to weak points or premature failure in the final product.
Increased Efficiency and Cost Savings
-
Minimized Downtime: AWC Dereelers enable the use of larger, heavier spools of wire (or the entire carrier), minimizing the frequency of material changes and reducing overall coiler downtime.
-
Reduced Labor Costs: Automating the unwinding process significantly reduces the need for manual handling and sorting of wire, leading to substantial labor savings.
-
Waste Minimization: By ensuring consistent quality and preventing tangling, breakage, and "bird nesting" (overrunning of the reel), AWC dereelers minimize material scrap, which is especially important with high-cost materials.
-
Higher Production Speeds: The reliable, controlled supply of material allows forming machines to operate at optimal, consistent speeds without interruptions, thereby increasing throughput.
