implementation of the Bauer BK right angle, helical bevel geared motor

package also allowed us to reduce the width of the machine from HIGHLY DYNAMIC
approximately 3.5 metres to 2.6 metres – which is a huge win for our STANDARD &

customers.” SOLUTIONS
This sizable space saving ensured that end users could maximise
their available floorspace effectively.
The new RD10 units provide smoother acceleration and
deceleration with no ‘cable popping’, reducing the risk of damaging
strands. A footswitch and central operator controls with handheld speed
pendant allow the operator to wind material onto a reel or onto a coiling
head. The footswitch can be “jogged” without tripping the drive –

SHORT DELIVERY TIME
“The BK40 performed well in both our in-house testing and testing
at our customer's facility. Bauer is a great company to team up with.
They were very supportive and worked well with our staff,” according to

Crosley. “We are looking at other applications that may maximise the
