Cable Pay-Off

The Cable Pay-Off machine is a crucial component in wire and cable manufacturing, designed for the controlled and seamless unwinding (pay-off) of wire or cable from large drums or spools into a downstream process like extrusion or cutting. Available in various types, including gantry, pintle, column, and flyer, it handles a wide range of bobbin sizes (e.g., 400mm to 3200mm) and is often motorized with a tension control system (e.g., using dancer arms or pneumatic brakes). Its primary function is to maintain constant, precise tension and speed for continuous, jerk-free material feed, minimizing breakage, tangling, and ensuring consistent product quality in high-speed production lines.
