Typical applications for Conform include copper and aluminium
rectangular wire (magnet wire for transformers), solid aluminium
conductor (SAC for cables), copper bus bar, trolley wire and other
shaped conductors, round refrigeration tube, and multiport or PFC
tubes in di erent alloys. Further development by BWE resulted in
the world’s rst Conklad™ continuous aluminium sheathing line
in 1985. Conklad technology is now available for applications
such as AS wire, OPGW, CATV, sheathed composite cores,
reinforced aluminium wire and other similar products requiring an
aluminium sheath or non-ferrous cladding.
BWE’s SheathEx™ technology is fast becoming the new alternative
to ‘seamless’ aluminium sheathing of high voltage cables. The
SheathEx process provides a continuous, reliable (no weld)
and cost-e ective method of sheathing high voltage power
cables. Publicity of new developments and applications are not
always possible, due to the con dential and non-disclosure
agreements between BWE and its customers. Proving trials
and demonstrations can be arranged at BWE’s headquarters in
Ashford, Kent, UK. BWE’s research and development department is
available to consider any new potential application.
BWE continues to manufacture and supply a complete range of
cold welders and dies for a fast, cost-e ective and reliable solution
to welding non-ferrous materials from ne wire to round rod.
