Description:

​

The NEW Gecko is a smaller lower cost passive de-reeler alternative to the Chameleon pre-feeding system from Production Technology. It is aimed at the lower budget / less intensive customer demand for cutting smaller batches of small to medium size wires from relatively small reels. 

​

Gecko provides the user with a complete workstation solution whereby the processing machine, de-reeler and wire reel are contained within a small footprint, eliminating the requirement for additional workbenches and table for your wire processing area.

The system incorporates a table top suitable for most of the smaller range of Komax / Schleuniger etc.. processing machines. A strong wire reel axle with adjustable and lockable reel cone clamps, pneumatically activated brake to stop overrun, and a set of wire storage pulleys that rise and switch the compressed air to operate the brake on the axle. Gecko is very compact and a complete solution to wire and cable feeding.
