PWM Booth J05

British company Pressure Welding Machines (PWM), which has been at the forefront of cold welding technology for 25 years, will showcase its range of cost effective manual cold welders at wire Southeast Asia. The range includes three hand-held, portable models, ideal for repairing wire breaks quickly and efficiently in confined spaces. The compact M10, M25 and M30 machines, designed to be exceptionally comfortable to hold and extremely easy to operate using finger or hand pressure, have capacities ranging from 0.1mm to 1.8mm diameter for copper and aluminium. PWM’s BM10 and BM30 models are strong, low maintenance machines that use industry standard dies to provide a reliable weld on non-ferrous wire from 0.1mm to 1.8mm diameter. These welders can be used either mounted on a workbench or a mobile trolley. Light hand pressure on the operating lever completes the weld in seconds.

Niehoff’s NBAT system m m

Compared to conventional bunching machines, energy consumption and noise emission of the D series machines are significantly reduced due to their one-bow design. State-of-the-art three-phase drive technology and contactless machine data transfer reduce maintenance to a minimum. All production parameters are set on the machine’s touch screen display where they are clearly visible, together with service and maintenance mess- ages. The machine, including a final capstan, controls the pre-set winding tension using a load cell in the spool carrier throughout spool filling. The driven haul-off capstan enables a continuous adjustment of the lay length and a maximum of production flexibility. The NBAT (Niehoff bunching automatic traverse), which is offered as an option on the D 801 buncher, automatically detects spool flanges and controls the traverse width of empty and full spools by means of optoelectronic sensors – automatically and perfectly, without machine operator intervention. As the spools are filled the strands can be paid off, tangle-free, and without wire damage even at very high speeds.

Fibre optic technology from Nextrom m m

Together Nextrom and Rosendahl offer turnkey solutions in the fields of extrusion, SZ-stranding, fibre optic, forming, welding and corrugation, combining knowledge and state-of- the-art technology in close cooperation with its customers and product suppliers. Nextrom Oy representative office – Hong Kong Website : www.rosendahlaustria.com Maschinenfabrik Niehoff will present a D 801 type double-twist bunching machine. The machine is designed for strands of 0.25mm² to 16mm² cross section with infinitely variable lay length of 15mm to 160mm and a maximum number of 5,000 twists per minute. The maximum production speed is 300m/min. The machine accommo- dates spools with a flange diameter of 800mm and a width of 600mm. The D 801 is part of a series of six differently sized models, available in Maschinenfabrik Niehoff German Pavilion

The versatile manual M101 from m m Pressure Welding Machines

The largest machine to be presented at the show is the versatile manual M101. This heavy-duty cold welder, which has a capacity of 1mm to 3.6mm copper and 1mm to 5mm EC aluminium, is one of PWM’s best-selling models. Durable, simple to operate and easy to maintain – due to the low number of component parts – the M101 can be either bench or trolley-mounted for portability and convenience.
