Pulling Mechanism: Typically consists of powered rollers, belts, or caterpillar tracks that grip the copper bar and pull it at a controlled speed. The pulling mechanism ensures a smooth and continuous motion without causing damage to the bar’s surface.
Variable Speed Control: Equipped with speed adjustment features to synchronize with other machines in the production line, such as extrusion or drawing machines, ensuring a constant rate of production.
Tension Control: Ensures that the copper bar is pulled with the right amount of tension, avoiding stretching, warping, or deformation.
Automation: Many modern haul-off machines are integrated with automated control systems like PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), allowing for precise and efficient operation with minimal manual intervention.
Robust Construction: Built to handle the weight, size, and surface quality of copper bars, with materials designed to withstand the high demands of industrial environments.
In a copper bar continuous casting production line, once the molten copper is cast into a bar form, the copper bar haul off machine pulls the solidifying copper bar from the caster. The haul-off machine ensures that the copper bar moves at a controlled speed, preventing cracks, uneven cooling, or bending as the bar is pulled through cooling systems and further down the line for cutting or coiling.
