Coiler Retrofit for 16 Carrier Braiders

Coiler Retrofit for 16-Carrier Braiders: Flexibility for R&D and Beyond

Steeger USA’s Coiler Retrofit Package transforms your 16-carrier horizontal or vertical braider into a fully functional coiler, providing an efficient and cost-effective solution for R&D projects. Designed for manufacturers who need access to coiling capabilities without committing to a dedicated production coiler, this retrofit allows you to experiment and develop processes with ease.

Why Choose the Coiler Retrofit Package?

Quick Transition:
Switch between coiling and braiding in as little as 45 minutes, maximizing machine utility without prolonged downtime.

Integrated Software:
All 16-carrier braiders with IMC controls come standard with coiling software. The retrofit supports 25 variable coiling/pitch segments and includes transition segments for seamless operation.

Consistent Tension Control:
The Coiler Retrofit uses KL80D carriers, the same as Steeger’s braiders, ensuring the same consistent tension capabilities you rely on for precise results.

Material Flexibility:
Handle a variety of materials, including:

Round and Flat Wires
Monofilament Fibers
Single or multiple wire coils
