High Speed Vertical Type Double Layer Cable Wrapping Machine

Engineering & Working Principle – Precision You Can Rely On

The RLE-800 employs a vertical concentric dual-head design. The wire core advances through the center while two tape pads rotate at high speed around it, applying layers with controlled pitch and overlap.

Servo motors provide independent tension control for each tape layer (or precise constant tension mode), automatically compensating as pad diameter decreases. This ensures wrinkle-free, gap-free wrapping with optimal material usage. The smart PLC system synchronizes head rotation, line speed, and capstan drive while allowing operators to preset and store recipes via the touchscreen interface.

Automatic fault detection and tape-end stop functions protect both product and machine. The vertical layout minimizes vibration, improves operator access, and integrates easily with upstream pay-offs and downstream take-ups or extrusion lines.

This combination of mechanical robustness and digital intelligence delivers the high-precision uniform wrapping demanded by modern cable standards while supporting long, unattended production shifts.

Spécifications techniques (RLE-800)

Custom configurations ensure seamless integration into your production line — whether as a standalone taping station or part of a complete extrusion or stranding line.

Applications principales

• Câbles résistants au feu — Mica + aluminum foil combinations for circuit integrity cables (IEC 60331 / BS 6387 compliance, 90–180 minute fire performance)
• Câbles de commande et d'instrumentation — Precise shielding and mechanical protection layers
• Câbles de communication et de données — High-quality mylar or aluminum foil wrapping for EMI shielding in Cat6, instrumentation, and signal cables
• Specialty & Multi-Functional Cables — Multiple tape layers (e.g., bedding + shielding + fire barrier) applied in a single high-speed pass
• High-Volume Production Environments — Ideal for manufacturers supplying infrastructure, oil & gas, petrochemical, data centers, and building projects requiring certified fire-performance and shielded cables

Built for Reliability & Long-Term Partnership

Manufactured with robust construction and premium servo components, the RLE-800 has demonstrated stable, long-shift performance in leading cable plants globally. Operators value fast setup, low maintenance requirements, and consistent output shift after shift.

This translates directly into measurable savings in labor, energy, and raw material usage while consistently producing high-performance taped cores that meet stringent international standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the maximum rotation speed and typical linear output of the RLE-800?

A: Up to 2500 RPM. Actual linear speed depends on wire diameter and desired overlap/pitch but supports high-volume production rates suitable for modern extrusion and stranding lines.

Q: Can it apply true double layers in one pass with independent tension control?

A: Yes. The dual-head vertical design with servo-driven independent tension control allows precise, high-precision uniform wrapping of two different or identical tapes simultaneously — ideal for mica + foil fire-resistant constructions.

Q: Which tape materials are compatible?

A: Aluminum foil, mica tape, cotton paper, mylar (PET), fire-resistant tapes, transparent tapes, and most common cable wrapping materials. Excellent adhesion and coverage across the full range.

Q: How does the machine support fire-resistant cable production standards?

A: Precise overlap control, constant tension, and gap-free wrapping help achieve the consistent layering required for circuit integrity cables under IEC 60331 and BS 6387 testing. We can assist with process parameters for certified constructions.

Q: What is the operator requirement and maintenance level?

A: One operator can typically manage 3–4 machines thanks to large pad capacity and automation features. The design emphasizes low maintenance with easy access and reliable servo components.

Q: Is customization available for line integration or specific requirements?

A: Absolutely. We customize tension profiles, control logic, pay-off/take-up configurations (500–800 mm or larger), safety packages, and full integration with existing extrusion, stranding, or rewinding lines.

Q: What are the main advantages of the vertical design versus horizontal machines?

A: Smaller footprint (valuable factory space), lower energy consumption, reduced vibration/noise, easier operator access, and excellent suitability for wire diameters 0.6–15 mm with single or double layers.

Q: Do you provide support and spare parts in the Middle East / GCC region?

A: Yes. RLB offers proven global support including readily available spares, remote diagnostics, and on-site commissioning and training — with experience serving cable manufacturers in demanding Middle East infrastructure and energy projects.
