throughput rates and lower melt temperatures for a range of applications.Extrusion Line ComponentsExtrusion lines can be built with a wide range of extruders, payoffs and tension brakes, take-ups
and auxiliary equipment including cooling troughs, capstans and accumulator systems. Laboratory equipment, customized feedscrews, and control systems are also availableComplete Extrusion SystemsWe
supply complete wire and cable extrusion systems for communication, construction/building, telephone, and automotive wire, high temperature wire, plug, optical fiber and specialty wire.
Capabilities include communication cable systems, automotive cable systems, power cable systems, construction cable systems, fiber optic systems and coaxial cable systems. All wire and cable
extrusion systems are available with Clipper take-ups, payoffs and spoolers, customized feedscrews and patented micro-processor based control systems.Wire Handling EquipmentWe offer high
performance Merritt wire handling equipment including capstans, large 96-inch (2,400mm) payoffs and take-ups, and 60 to 80-inch (1,524 to 2,000mm) caterpillars.CapstansSingle wheel capstans are
available from 6 to 48 inches (150 to 1,200mm) in diameter, dual wheel multi-pass configurations from 12 to 48 inches (300 to 1,200mm) in diameter, with lengths to 40 feet (12 meters) in dry and
wet arrangements.Payoffs and Take-UpsSingle reel, dual reel, flyer, and portal pay-offs and take-ups for a wide range of applications. Options are available for portal, cantilevered arm, and floor
traversing.Specialty EquipmentEquipment is available for fiber optic cable lines, CATV cable lines, high temperature wire lines, and silicone rubber lines.Auxiliary Equipment Auxiliary equipment
including cooling troughs, capstans, semi-automatic and fully-automatic spoolers, caterpillars, wire pre-heaters, and curing systems can be supplied based on application.
