CHD Motor-Driven Reel Series

SMART Drive Motor-Driven Reels

Conductix-Wampfler CHD Reels are focused on Bulk and Mining applications.

They are built around high quality gearmotors made to our specifications by top-brand manufacturers, and VFD/VSD-sized for long-term operation in horizontal applications.

Our H series of slip rings and housings for high voltage safely and reliably power cranes worldwide in all climates and all applications since decades. Add to them our exclusive and patented TFO (Transmitter Fiber Optics) for secure and EMI resistant Fiber Optics networks supporting up to Terabit Ethernet, and you have all the ingredients to increase the OEE of your cranes and the productivity of your terminal through high reliability.

Our standardized and modular CHD range brings to your terminals all the advantages of modern and systematic industrial manufacturing.
As quality and reliability starts with the design, we use rules-based computerized design systems to offer you the configured CHD reel best adapted to your application within our fully industrialized range, plus a customizing touch from our experts if desired.
