At present, the common cable metering device on the market generally includes a metering wheel and a pressure roller. When in use, the cable passes between the metering wheel and the pressure roller. During this process, the cable is pressed against the metering wheel by the pressure roller. When the cable moves, it will drive the metering wheel to rotate, thereby calculating the moving length of the cable by the encoder installed on the metering wheel. For example, the cable machine rotary metering device disclosed in the Chinese patent document with publication number CN220288575U realizes the metering function by using the above structure.
