Capstan
Capstan – Precision Pulling for Thin Wall Driplines
Metzer’s Capstan unit is a high-precision pulling system designed specifically for the demands of thin wall dripline production. Replacing the traditional haul-off in such applications, it ensures smooth, vibration-free pipe pulling without deformation—even at high line speeds.
The Capstan’s advanced motion control algorithms, combined with a noise-free mechanical design, provide exceptional performance at industry-leading speeds. Its role is critical in maintaining consistent pipe geometry and spacing between emitters during high-speed production, ensuring the final product meets the most demanding standards.
