Optic Fibers / Fragile Filaments
Large light-weight plastic rollers with 100mm spacing
Large diameter rollers and 100 mm spacing between outer rollers minimize damage to optic fibers and similar materials that cannot withstand a small bending radius.
Finger Support: We recommend mounting a finger support for higher tension ranges
Note:This model does not include a material thickness compensator
