The range of Gauge 104 starts at 8 carriers and reaches up to 120, increasing by 4 each time. Naturally, the odd number of carriers corresponds to machines intended for the production of rigid or elastic flat braids, while the even numbers correspond to the production of round braids and tubular braids, with or without core.
Accessories:
• Different take ups at the braiding point.
• Different lengths and shapes of needles for obtaining perfect edges of flat ribbons.
• Single or tension-controlled stopping devices for the control of cores.
• For elastic braids, a tension regulation device called “Ratex,” which, through an optimal combination of gears, achieves the desired rubber tension.
• For round braids with or without core, and tubular braids, Ratera has various take ups systems, either on reels of different sizes in a parallel take up of the braided product, or on reels of different sizes in a parallel or semi-parallel take up, on cross take up without a bobbin, or on spoolers.
• Different take off systems. For example, a flat product braiding machine for flat products, a wheel braiding machine for the manufacture of fiberglass sleeves, etc.
Carriers can be supplied with different versions: with or without bobbin holders, thread guides and tensioners, with open hooks or with ceramics or porcelains.
