Top quality performance
Well Gain Cable Systems Ltd is proud
to present a state-of-the-art multi-wire
drawing machine from China with
proven top quality performance.
The machine is manufactured
by Kunshan Hongtai Machinery
& Electric Equipment, which is
specialised in manufacturing wire
drawing machines and delivered
its first multi-wire drawing machine
to XiAn Xi Dian Group in the fourth
quarter of 2010.
The machine has been working
extremely well and up to the end
user’s full satisfaction. It has
substantially improved the production
efficiency for the end user, who is
very pleased with the investment and
has ordered a second machine in less
than 12 months.
In the meantime four more multi-wire
drawing machines have been sold
to other customers, including one
machine to Sierra Cable in Sri Lanka
and one machine to Manufacturera
Conecel SA in Mexico. These
successful experiences have
provided an ideal solution to
customers who are looking for
multi-wire drawing equipment with
proven performance at an affordable
cost. Well Gain can offer machines for
8-wire and 16-wire, with outlet wire
diameter range 0.15-0.40mm and
0.40-0.90mm.
Well Gain Cable Systems is
specialised in supplying top quality
wire and cable machinery from
China and is the exclusive export
representative of Kunshan Hongtai.
