Autosplice can now supply a field-installable retrofit kit that allows customers with earlier models of the company's insertion equipment to upgrade it to include direct drive capabilities.
The kits eliminate the older ac motor, pulley and wrap-spring clutch assemblies, and replace them with faster, quieter and more reliable mechanisms. These result in a reduction in overall system wear and the elimination of unnecessary motion. The direct drive retrofit also improves overall productivity by streamlining the machine set-up process.
