Technical Overview
The document details Cavotec Specimas hydrodynamic cable reel systems, highlighting their unique features, specifications, and applications for efficient cable and hose reel management in industrial settings.
Key Features
The hydrodynamic system features a clutch on the main drum shaft for even torque output, minimizing torque variation and enhancing cable longevity. It integrates a gearbox, clutch, and brake into a single unit for constant torque output.
Specifications
Specifications include torque units' reduction ratios, nominal torque, weight, motor requirements, drum dimensions, cable sizes, and amperage ratings.
Applications
Used globally in harbor cranes, container cranes, mining machines, and mobile cranes, the system allows on-site torque adjustments for flexible tension management.
Technical Details
The document describes the torque unit's construction and operation, including the clutch, friction plates, and adjustable spring assembly for constant torque output, with manual torque adjustments.
Tables and Diagrams
Tables provide data on motor specifications, reel speeds, cable capacities, and dimensions for different torque units. Diagrams illustrate the torque/speed relationship and internal components.
Additional Systems
The Cavotec Pull and Store System addresses cable over-tensioning in high-lift applications with separate torque units for pulling and storing cables, noted for simplicity and safety features.
Monospiral vs. Pull and Store Reels
  • Monospiral Reels: Cable tension increases as reeling diameter decreases, potentially exceeding limits.
  • Pull and Store Reels: Maintain cable tension within limits by lifting the cable with a constant radius.
Application Data
  • Type of Crane: Ship-to-shore crane
  • Cable Specifications: 11 kV, 58 mm diameter, 5.1 kg weight, 460 m length
  • Operational Parameters: Speed of 46 m/min, acceleration time of 5 seconds, installation height of 20 m, and a duty cycle of 40% ED.
Cavotec Torque Motor System
  • Designed for continuous duty with constant torque output in both reeling and unreeling modes.
  • Features a flat torque/slip curve, with torque fluctuations around 10% within ±400 rpm.
  • Includes a monoshaft planetary gear, electro-magnetic brake, and servo-ventilation.
  • Standard protection class is IP55, suitable for temperatures up to 40°C, with options for higher temperatures.
Cavotec Reel Control (CRC)
  • Achieves precise speed and torque control using standard squirrel cage motors without a slipping device.
  • Minimizes cable pull by computing torque reference signals based on reeling variables.
  • Utilizes oversized, non-force ventilated motors for increased reliability and cable life.
Technical Specifications
  • Detailed tables provide specifications for reducers and torque motors, including nominal torque, reeling speed, collector type, and cable size.
  • Specifications include motor power, dimensions, and capacity for different drum sizes and configurations.
Specifications and Components
Detailed specifications for motorized cable reels include motor selection, torque, power output, and dimensions. Consulting Cavotec Specimas for specific quotations is emphasized due to variations in capacity and size.
Spreader Reels
Motorized spreader reels for container crane applications are designed for high-speed and continuous duty, using a CRC drive system for cable tension control and equipped with heavy-duty collectors.
Reel Versions
Three types of spreader reels: Monospiral, LS Spiralised, and LSC Spiralised, each tailored for specific applications with details on cable type, dimensions, reeling length, speed, and drive type.
Main Reel Components
Cavotec Specimas collectors are interchangeable, made from stainless steel, with standard protection class IP55, and can include anti-condensation heating elements and rotary cam limit-switches.
Service and Support
Cavotec Specimas provides 24/7 service support for mounting, commissioning, upgrades, repairs, and training, operating globally through sales companies and distributors in 30 countries.
Conclusion
The document emphasizes consulting Cavotec Specimas for specific quotations and highlights the company's global presence and commitment to quality service.

Cavotec Hydrodynamic System INTERMITTENT DUTY In the torque unit, represented in the sectional drawing above, the clutch is the main component which allows the constant torque output. The bronze crown gear (3), driven by the motorised worm screw (2), is freely mounted on the drum shaft (1). Its surfaces are specially machined. The two friction plates (4,5) are mounted on both sides of the crown gear. These are made of steel and are fixed to the drum shaft with a key. The friction plates are also specially machined so that whilst turning, an oil film is created between the crown gear and the two...
