Custom Puller Designs


Pullers and feeders can also be customized for special operating conditions. The Tear Strip Puller consists of a nip puller with a pulley and control system designed for the customers process. The silica fiber catapuller was designed to work with high temperature fibers. Another catapuller with an encoder was integrated into a hose cut to length system. The catapuller feeds the product to a programmed length, after which a cutting operation is initiated.
