Shipping costs for a small cable reel can be comparable to the cost of buying a new one, according to Cavotec, which has introduced a modular version to solve the problem.
The Alfo CLT spring reel has a range of benefits, said a company spokesperson. “One of the most important economical advantages of this is the easy and cheaper possibility to transport the disassembled components of the reel all over the world, not requiring a specialist for its assembly.”
The modular design makes storage and the replacement of components easy, said the company, and allows for “numerous” combinations, covering most common requirements.
“The spring reels are strong and well designed in order to guarantee the highest reliability even in difficult applications. All reels are equipped with two, totally sealed bearings which are lubricated for life,” added Cavotec.
