Selection Guide

When selecting a ceramic coated capstan, consider the following factors:

• Wire Material:
  Select the appropriate groove design and coating thickness according to wire materials such as copper, aluminum, steel, or synthetic fibers.
• Operating Speed:
  High-speed applications require accurate dynamic balance and reliable coating adhesion.
• Installation Dimensions:
  Confirm shaft diameter, outer diameter, groove quantity, and other specifications to ensure compatibility with the equipment.
• Working Environment:
  For high-temperature or corrosive environments, evaluate coating performance requirements before selection.

Customized dimensions and special coating solutions are available according to customer requirements.

Maintenance Recommendations

Proper maintenance helps maintain optimal performance and extend service life:

• Regular Cleaning:
  Use soft cloths or brushes to remove dust and oil contamination. Avoid hard tools that may damage the coating surface.
• Wear Inspection:
  Regularly check for coating peeling, cracks, or abnormal wear. Replace the capstan if the substrate becomes exposed.
• Bearing Maintenance:
  For models equipped with bearings, apply suitable grease according to equipment requirements.
• Proper Storage:
  Store in a dry environment without corrosive gases and avoid impact damage.
