AUTOLOG Winding line with automatic drum pick-up Powerful all-in-one solution Fig. 1 AUTOLOG winding line Winding line with automatic drum pick-up Cables and lines for the transfer of different types of electrical energy or data are now an important component of building services engineering, machine and plant engineering, telecommunications and a range of other applications. Kabelmat offers two different systems which are discribed below: System 1: Machine to drum The approved system „Machine to drum“ is still used in many sectors. The advantages of this system are short access times by picking the material, easy operating of the machine as well a low investment costs. It is mainly used, where number of cuts are low and fewer additional staff will be needed. System 2: Drum to machine Depending on increasing centralisation of cable warehouses there is an continously increasing number of variety of storing positions and cuttings. Routes to the machine are getting longer, complex and unprofitable. Therefore, more and more companies deciding to use the professional solution „Drum to machine“. To ensure an effiecent deployment of staff, it is recommended to automate procedures as far as possible. Kabelmat also offers the right support for th
