Designed for the fast, precision application of tape insulation systems

Effortlessly tape up to 8 times faster than traditional methods

Simultaneously apply 2 layers of tape

Apply tape in both directions

BCT’s with Interleave

The  BCT coil taping machine is available in a convenient bench mounted configuration. This provides a self-contained and cost effective solution for improving the productivity and quality of manually operated coil taping lines. The BCT Bench machine is ideal for taping smaller and open coils and bars, for applications such as motor and generator stators. Two layers can be applied simultaneously and the BCT tapes in both directions.

The machine is pneumatically operated, by a series of pneumatic foot pedals that control the clamp facility, traverse direction and taping speed, at speeds up to 250 rpm with no electrical power required.

BCT is easily removed from the workbench to allow gantry suspension

Operation of the BCT bench models is via foot pedals

BCT Coil Handling Equipment

Increase your production effectiveness by complementing the range of BCT taping machines with Ridgway’s selection of dedicated handling equipment.

Used to provide fast, accurate and consistent methods of Operator guided tape application with virtually no preparation or set up time required.

Designed as a workstation to weightlessly suspend BCT taping machines

The gantry range accommodates the CTU coil handling systems

A free running carriage mounted to linear rails ensures smooth lateral motion of the taping head

Multiple carriages can be added to allow a variety of taping machines to be used

Quick and easy connection of the taping machine to the pneumatic circuit

Manufactured in a range of sizes

CTU Mounted Coil Supports

Used in conjunction with the CTU,
additional rail mounted coil supports can be provided depending on the width or
geometry of the coil design.

The unit is used as a suspension gantry to hold a ‘BCT’ taping machine to apply a variety of insulation tapes to a conductor prior to coil winding.

The taping machine is suspended from a linear rail mounted to the underneath of the gantry overhead beam.

The gantry should be positioned such that the taping machines can be used as close to the loop winding pins as possible without causing damage to either machine when the winding beam is rotated.

 Designed as a workstation to  weightlessly suspend BCT taping machines

 Flexible design to fit available space

 A free-running carriage mounted to linear rails nensures smooth lateral motion of the taping head

 Space saving design

 Quick and easy connection of the taping machine to the pneumatic circuit

For larger projects Ridgway can design and manufacture bespoke gantry systems.

Free standing supports can be utilised to complement the bespoke gantries.

Bench Support Gantry

A simple coil support gantry with
pneumatic coil clamping workstations. Can be configured from 1 to 6 individual operator workstations. Multiple BCT coil taping machines can be suspended from free running carriages mounted on
overhead linear rails. Virtually no
preparation or set up time required. Clamping of the coil is via pneumatic clamps operated by a foot pedal.

The STT offers a simple solution to dramatically reduce the overall coil manufacturing time of turn taped coils. Designed for the efficient taping of multiple conductors as they pass between the drum stand, gathering box and loop winding beam during the loop winding process.

Variable tape overlap

Simultaneously apply 2 layers of tape

Operation is via a control panel mounted on a pedestal.
Rotational and linear speeds are adjustable via potentiometers

The conductor stack is fed through the STT and centralised using roller boxes. The machine has guarding that is fitted with sensors. If the guard is open, it will prevent the machine from operating.

The machine is driven by twin caterpillar belts, powered by a synchronised servo motor

To ensure consistent adhesion to the
conductor stack, the machine is fitted with a pneumatic traction control system

The STT is freely suspended from its own support gantry. Gantries are manufactured to match exact requirements
