lengths with manual loading or from coil can be used for producing tube coils for cooling, heating and air-conditioning industries, tube and coils for motor vehicles, wire and bar coils. The company’s polyvalent bending machines are suitable for wire and tube bending from straightened and cut pieces or from coil, with manual or automatic loading. The company’s product range also includes multi-head linear (sequential) bending machines, automatic plant for bending and butt-welding for high/mass production, bending machines fed from coil, complete robotic bend cells, and optional tools and accessory devices.

Metavan, Belgium, uses advanced machinery to produce a specialised product mix of pressed steel reels and spools for stranding, bunching, and cabling. Steel reels from 12" to 49" (305mm to 1,250mm) will be showcased at the Howar Equipment booth. The specialised equipment employed allows extremely fast manufacturing times. All reels are produced to strict standards, and are powder coated in any RAL colour, providing the user with a highly wear-resistant finish.

optic cable and telecom industries. In energy applications, you can discover the latest designs from building, automotive to high speed MV cable manufacturing and optimum curing for CV lines. From the fibre optic team, visitors will be presented with the OEL 40 and 41 solutions for tight buffering and secondary coating. The equipment functions particularly well for FTTx production of short lengths. Finally, for telecom, the subject will focus on recent configurations for multi-layer striped LAN constructions as well as solutions for micro-coax cable. Maillefer’s telecom team will focus on recent configurations for multi-layer striped LAN constructions ▲
