Ratera offers solutions in metallic braiding. Some of the solutions are:
- Number of carriers: The carrier is the mobile element where the bobbin with the wire to be braided is loaded. In hydraulic hoses, constructions of 24 and 48 are popular.
- Gauge: Directly related to the bobbin capacity, Ratera offers 3 metallic models: E104, E115, and E154. The E154 allows working with very thick metallic wires and the E104 with finer wires. The E115, in between, offers a good speed-quality ratio.
- Horizontal Braiders: For large diameter hoses or those with little flexibility, a caterpillar hauling system is used that works synchronously with the braider.
- Vertical Braiders: For space optimization, working comfort, and maximum speed, the vertical braider is ideal. Generally, it works with a wheel with a folder.
