External loop control port included with all powered reels and straighteners

Our standard loop control for Rapid-Air power products is a pushbutton unit with digital display. This very flexible proportional control allows fine setting or speed, loop angle and loop height. A remote or external loop sensor may be plugged directly into this control as an alternate loop control.
Standard features on DC drive reels and stock straightener loop control.

Both a lightweight low inertia loop sensing arm and a heavier, counterbalance arm can be used on all powered reel models. The counterbalanced arm fits directly through the loop sensing arm shaft. A counterweight can be shifted to apply more or less tension to material being payed out or rewound. When the lightweight arm is used, it fits into a sleeve that is inserted in the shaft hole and locked into place.
