Tesmec esmecNews 03#2012 PULLER-TENSIONER AFB707 Basing on successful experiences of AFB613 and AFB506, Tesmec has produced a new hydraulic puller-tensioner for big conductors, suitable to string one or two ropes or bundled conductors with two pairs of bull-wheels with completely independent controls.

This machine is perfect for big span situa ons, especially for river or mountain crossing applica ons.

The machine is equipped with new bogies with suspension system.

This system is recommended in the following condi ons: •

Unstable Job Site Soil

•

Muddy condi ons

The device u lise standard size of tyres.

The max conductor diameter allowed is 46 mm and the max rope diameter is 24 mm.

This puller-tensioner has all the preroga ves of the machines of the last genera on, such as pull and speed synchronizing.

Transmission Power Lines with high number of conductors per bundle (6/8 or 10) and/or with huge conductor sec ons requires a very high pulling force both at Puller than at Tensioner sta ons. Tesmec proposes the top advanced solu on to use this puller-tensioner in mul ple number, therefore these machine working together can string simultaneously up to 10 bundled conductors wit a total pulling force of 900 kN.

BOF340/BOA350 These reels are the example of high tech product, made of welded steel with protec ve coa ng. Each reel is provided with two cross supports and connec ng bolts in separate package.

The model BOF340 is a pilot rope take up reel for 400 m of diameter 6 mm rope, equipped with a winder to easily rewind the rope. It has been designed to couple to the back harness BOA350, that is used to transport a small reel.

A reel with reduced dimensions has various advantages: at first it allows the operator to easily bring the rope in areas generally very hard to access with motorised machines.

Its layout of a backpack with the rear reel allows easily working with the rope by reducing the hard work. The eďŹƒciency of the working me is another considerable advantage guaranteed by this reel, because it doesn’t require the usage of other tools.
