KB35: Dual pressure brakes

Category: Uncoiling Process | Updated: 6/4/2007 2:59:51 PM | Owner: The Professor | Read: 1038 (Last: 2/3/2010 9:00:11 PM)

Resolution

Do you run at high speed with a plain reel, so that if your brake is adjusted light enough to supply just adequate tension on the stock during operation, the reel overruns badly at stopping? Use an air brake with a 2-pressure system so that you have a drag pressure while running, and a high pressure stop when needed.
