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
left and right-hand versions, which
cover cross sections from 0.013mm²
to 50mm² and feature all the same
technical advantages.
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.

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.
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.
