Pull-off caterpillars BA 400 & BA 501

Reliable profile pull-off — in two sizes for different needs.

The BA 400 and BA 501 pull-off caterpillars draw off rubber profiles (with and without steel reinforcement), hoses, and plastic profiles continuously and at a constant speed. The BA 400 leads on speed, up to 60 m/min; the BA 501 leads on force, up to 2000 N, for more demanding profiles.

The problem

A pull-off unit has to run reliably, day after day — yet safety devices that slow the operator down are, in practice, often bypassed. At the same time, too much pull-off force leaves the profile stressed and deformed, while too little lets it slip — every profile needs the right balance of speed and grip.

Your benefits

  • Two sizes, one choice.

    The BA 400 is built for speed (0–60 m/min); the BA 501 is built for force (up to 2000 N, optionally 4000 N, with two independent belt drives) — pick the one that matches your profile.

  • Safety that doesn't slow you down.

    A consistent safety concept with selective shutdown protects people and equipment without complicating the operator's workflow.

  • Won't slip.

    Switchable automatic slip compensation engages the moment grip on the product starts to fade — available on both sizes.

  • Reproducible, every time.

    Motorized height adjustment delivers reproducible values — accurate to 0.1 mm on the BA 400.

  • Retooled in minutes.

    Fast belt changes and simple setup keep downtime short.

  • Loops absorbed instantly.

    The "boost" button lets you clear a loop that's built up in an instant — online to the line or controlled locally.

Applications

Continuous pull-off of rubber profiles (with and without steel reinforcement), hoses, and plastic profiles at the end of the vulcanization line — the BA 400 for high line speeds, the BA 501 for profiles that need more pull-off force.

Pre-calculate it in VulcaRAMix

The pull-off speed of the BA 400 and BA 501 sets how long your profile dwells in the whole line. In VulcaRAMix you enter it as the line speed and immediately see how pace and cure interact.
