Well Gain Cable Systems Ltd
has added two products to its
range – a multi-wire drawing
machine
and
Electrolytic
tinning plant – which have
been added with the help of
Kunshan Hongtai Machinery
and Electric Equipment Ltd.
The
multi-wire
drawing
machine, with continuous
annealer, is an ideal solution
for
customers
who
are
looking for efficiency, cost
effectiveness and reliability in
drawing and bunching wire
strands.
With a maximum inlet wire
diameter of 2mm, the machine
is able to draw bare Cu, tinned
Cu and silver plated Cu wires
down to an outlet diameter of
0.15-0.4mm at max. line speed
32m/s. Both 8-wire and 16-wire
machines are available.
The electrolytic tinning plant,
complete with water treatment
system, is a waste water free
process of producing the best
quality tin plated copper wires
of wire dia. 1-2.6mm at max.
line speed 13m/s. The tinned
wires are suitable for further
wire drawing and continuous
annealing. To achieve the
highest production efficiency,
the tinning plant can work
with an in-line rod breakdown
machine.

Two new products fromWell Gain
Draka Communications has introduced
a free software utility, Draka DrumFit,
that makes life easier for anyone in the
fibre deployment process who needs to
calculate cable lengths.
DrumFit, a free download from Draka’s
website, reinforces Draka’s continuing
focus on TCO (Total Cost of Operations) for
fibre (or copper) infrastructure at all levels
of the deployment process.
Draka DrumFit is an advanced cable cut
optimiser utility that calculates the best
way to cut multiple cable lengths from
one or more cable drums or standard
lengths.
This simple software tool can save an
average of 50% of cable waste costs,
adding up to considerable amounts for
projects needing up to thousands of
kilometres of fibre cable.
It will also save time for installers, cable
layers and factories in their daily inventory
management of large stocks of drums for
fibre infrastructure projects.
“It takes only seconds for the Draka
optimiser to produce a result,” said Dick
van den Dool, director DrakaXSNet
Software Suite, Draka Communications.
“With a possible 500 million combinations
to find the optimal cutting choice from
a stock of a hundred drums, this simple
tool will add value to drum inventory
management. It’s the next best thing to
manual calculation, which can take an
inordinate length of time.”
