latest technology, robust construction, minimal maintenance
and operator safety. Moreover these highly automated machines
o er higher energy e ciency and ease of operation with reduced
workforce.
AEI will showcase its rigid stranders, which deliver accurate back
tension, smooth strand deviation and precise lay control. These
features are required for quality compacted conductor in case
of low, medium and EHV power cables and for high production
speeds in case of overhead conductor manufacture. Enhanced
cage speeds and the use of fully automatic bobbin batch loading
systems further ensure higher production e ciencies and
uptime.
Also on display will be the redesigned heavy duty compacting
head suitable for high tolerance Milliken conductor, and other
heads including the recently developed TW for manufacture of
the latest generation HTLS/trapezoidal wire overhead conductor.

Aeroel designs and manufactures high-accuracy laser
micrometers and laser gauges for non-contact diameter
measurement and control – suitable for on-line or o -line
application, to check a number of di erent products, to improve
process e ciency by reducing scrap and manpower, and to
assure dimensional consistency and product quality.
The company has also launched the HWS1 – Handy Wire Scanner,
a fully portable optical micrometer for non-contact measurement
of wires, cables and other similar products. Developed by Aeroel
with LED and CCD technology, it uses two crossed linear sensors
to automatically compensate positioning errors (patent pending).
Thanks to a powerful single chip microprocessor, the micrometer
is linearised and compensated to obtain the maximum precision
in the entire eld of measurement, regardless of an accurate
positioning of the wire.
The measurement is started by pressing the trigger and takes
only a few seconds. The display provides the operator
with interactive information to place the wire in the useful
measurement area and displays the measurement result.
All measurements are saved in the memory of the scanner,
associated with the date, time and the number of machine.
Through a USB connection, data can be downloaded to any PC.
