Vitari makes machinery for making wire coat hangers ▲

Vitari manufactures a large range of machines, starting from the automatic wire straightening and cutting-off machines with relevant chamfering machines, machines for manufacturing nails, chains, chain link fencing, hexagonal wire mesh for gabions, barbed wire, dress-hangers etc and all ancillary machines. A particular importance is kept for the barbed wire making machines that can produce all kinds of galvanised or plastic-coated mild steel wire (mod BVM) and reverse-twist barbed wire (mod BVR). They are high productivity machines, sound- proofed and with all required safety devices. They are also equipped with a centralised automatic lubrication system. These machines are placed vertically for ease of access for set- up and maintenance. The company also produces machinery for making wire coat hangers. The wire is introduced into the machine by means of rotating bushes, or by means of a set of rollers in case of plastic-coated wire. Two pairs of rollers make the wire run into the dress-hanger moulding unit. The wire length is variable depending on the type of wire and dress-hanger to make. The moulding operation consists of wire being cut to the preset length, bending, hook moulding and dress-hanger ejection. The produced dress-hangers are collected on a special inclined bar. By changing the tooling the user can produce a different shape of dress-hangers. Eurolls – Italy

Fainplast-Farotti Industrie Plastiche srl 12 D04

Fainplast new thermoplastic halogen free and flame retardant compound for general purpose wire and cable applications. HAX HF200 has been specially designed to meet cable manufacturers’ demand for high extrusion speed and volumetric output whilst maintaining good mechanical-thermal properties, and optimum flame retardancy. It can be processed using extruders with either low or high compression screws (halogen free or PVC type), and it can be used for the production of low voltage power, signal and control cables. It complies with the requirements of CEI 20- 11 M1, VDE 0207 Part 24 type HM2, VDE 0250 Part 215 type HM5, BS 7655 type LTS1 and LTS3. It has also been tested as insulation material with a wall thickness of about 1mm, which has passed the single cable fire test according to the specifications set by the IEC 60332-1. The product benefits compared to other benchmark FRNC compounds are summarised below: higher extrusion line speeds value for money ability to process the product at higher melt temperatures, leading to a lower screw torque in the extruder which allows significant energy saving • • • srl is introducing a
