Expandable shaft

Carbon fibre shafts are suitable for winding and unwinding core reels, in all converting processes. They can also be used for multiple reels, provided they are more than 200 mm wide. They have the advantage of weighing much less than their corresponding steel models, and can easily be moved by one person, with substantial benefits to productivity.

The body of the expanding shaft is made of high resistance carbon and produced with Wrapping technology. It is the only technology that allows for maximum compactness of fibres to obtain the best performance from the composite materials. The surface coating is always carbon fabric, ensuring extremely high resistance to wear and tear. The metal ends of the shaft are characterized by a special joining system of metal-carbon. The modular stucture allows it to adapt to the drawing of custom-made machines.

The shafts can be supplied in two versions: the first for heavy loads and the second for high speeds with substantially reduced loads.

The standard diameter is 3″, the table lengths are from 800 to 2.500mm and greater.
