Carbon flyer bows improve efficiency and durability in stranding operations
Heinze & Streng GmbH introduces an enhanced generation of its carbon flyer bows for demanding stranding machine applications. Developed for wire and cable manufacturers seeking higher productivity, lower energy consumption and longer service life, these composite flyer bows combine lightweight construction with high mechanical strength.
Carbon technology for stranding machines
Unlike conventional flyer bows made from metal or plastic, Heinze & Streng's carbon flyer bows are manufactured from multi-layer composite materials. The carbon fiber mesh is individually produced using pressure casting moulds, resulting in a highly resistant structure capable of withstanding the extreme mechanical stresses generated during high-speed stranding processes.
The lightweight design contributes to improved machine dynamics while maintaining excellent structural stability. Thanks to their aerodynamic profile, the flyer bows reduce air resistance during operation, helping manufacturers lower energy consumption and operating costs without compromising production quality.
Designed for performance and easy maintenance
The company's ES Stream Bows are specifically engineered to support energy-efficient production. Their moulded carbon design eliminates the need for machining wire guide grooves while ensuring precise wire guidance and consistent product quality. The 100% carbon fiber construction also offers excellent durability in continuous production environments.
Additional design features include quick replacement wear plates with a practical "slip-in" concept, reducing maintenance times and simplifying servicing operations. The aerodynamic geometry further supports smoother machine performance while contributing to reduced mechanical stress on equipment components.
By combining advanced composite materials, optimised aerodynamics and maintenance-friendly solutions, Heinze & Streng's carbon flyer bows provide wire and cable manufacturers with a reliable option for increasing operational efficiency and extending component lifespan.
With decades of experience in spare and wear parts for the wire and cable industry, Heinze & Streng continues to develop solutions that help manufacturers improve productivity, reduce downtime and maintain high process reliability.
