Product Details

Product Introduction

The APEX-8 cable pusher machine uses electric motors to transmit power through a reduction gearbox to durable rubber crawler tracks. The adjustable gap between the left and right tracks provides precise clamping force, moving cables forward at a steady speed for smooth, damage-free installation.

Working Principle

An electric motor transmits power through a reduction gearbox to the rubber tracks or rollers. The upper and lower tracks clamp the cable with adjustable pressure to create stable friction and move it forward at a constant speed. For long-distance cable laying, multiple units can operate synchronously to provide uniform thrust.

  • Delivers up to 8,000 N of pushing force for large-diameter cables from 20 mm to 240 mm.
  • Supports both control-panel and remote-control operation for flexible jobsite use.
  • Provides synchronized, constant-speed control across multiple units connected in series. All units start, stop, and maintain the same speed for smooth, uninterrupted cable installation.
  • One of KeepApexPower’s best-selling models, trusted by customers worldwide.

FAQ

Q1: Is the pushing force rating genuine? Can it handle large-diameter cables?

Yes. The 8,000 N rated pushing force has been field-tested in real projects. The dual-motor drive maintains consistent output with cable diameters up to 240 mm and is backed by deployments in more than 50 countries.

Q2: Will the cable be scratched or damaged during installation?

No. The rubber crawler tracks distribute pressure evenly across the cable surface. The clamping force is precisely adjustable, and built-in overload protection automatically reduces force if resistance exceeds the preset limit, helping protect both the cable and the equipment.

Q3: What happens if there is a sudden power outage during installation?

The machine stops immediately, while the tracks maintain their grip without power to prevent the cable from slipping or losing tension. In multi-unit setups, all connected machines stop simultaneously to prevent uneven tension across the cable run.

Q4: Can multiple machines work together on long-distance projects?

Yes. Multiple cable pushers can be connected in series with synchronized, constant-speed control. All units start, stop, and maintain the preset speed together, helping prevent uneven thrust and cable stress over long distances.
