The MTPREEL cable retraction system
Cable retraction system
SUMCAB’s automatic MTPReel™ cable retraction system is a patented system developed with the objective of improving working and safety conditions in the production environment.
The MTPReel™ cable retraction system was specially designed for the connector cables of portable teach panels for industrial robots. The system facilitates the safe and orderly storage of the connector cable when the teach panel is no longer in use, preventing premature wear and tear on the cable and eliminating a trip hazard.
Whilst the closed MTPReel™ system includes a power connector, which can be pre-configured for almost all well-known robot models, the open MTPReel-O™ system facilitates the simple upgrading of the existing teach panel connector cable. The upgrade can even be installed in-situ with no great effort or cost.
Your benefits
SAFETY AND ORGANISATION
through the orderly storage of the connector cable after using the teach panel, eliminating trip hazards and enabling a more effective use of floorspace.
TIME AND COST SAVINGS
through the simple operation of the system. The detachable automatic cable extraction and retraction arrestor enables a rapid but careful retraction of the connector cable.
CONSERVATION OF RESOURCES
through the orderly storage of the connector cable within the MTPReelTM, which protects the cable from contamination and damage and ensures that the teach panel can always be operated without problems.
Product specifications
The MTPReel™ cable retraction system is suitable for use with the robot control systems of all common industrial robots and is available in a wide variety of colours, box sizes and cable lengths. Teach panel connector and extension cables as well as installation components are available as separate accessories.
