SM4 series serving machines (wrapping machines)

[Aleksei Domanov]

Dear all,

I proud to present new series of serving machines - SM4.

Full details on Shipworkshop.com

Video to come.

 

What's new:

• Fully redesigned and improved.
• New "rail" design allows you to move cheeks to any desired position along the length of the machine.
• Special design allows you to serve extra long ropes with or without "endless" option.
• Optional "endless" rope option for those who do not want to wind ropes up on handles.
• Motor option is easy mounting and helps you to automate serving process.
• Symmetrical design for right- and left-hand operators.
• Out-of-box ready for using.
• All operations are similar to my previous serving machines:
  • serving ropes,
  • making beckets,
  • stropping blocks,
  • making eye-splices,
  • laying seizings,
  • making stay mouse (diamond knot),
  • other jobs where one rope is to be wound round the other.

Just for example. Stropped 7mm block using 0.3mm rope made by PL4-3 ropewalk using SM4 server.

(Sorry for block quality, I haven't got good looking block at this time 🙂 )
