Extrusion machinery for cables & fibre optics

I f only for the multiplicity of plastics formulations, makers of the machinery of plastics manipulation confront chal- lenges that do not detain some other equipment makers. Additionally, the makers of extrusion machinery must be responsive to safety and environmental concerns (chief among them fire-and-smoke resistance and corrosion resistance) beyond the requirements of many other specialities. The demands of fibre optics add another level of concern. These multiple responsibilities explain why extrusion machinery is at once specific and broad-based. In what other area of the wire and cable industry does one encounter a unit that rejoices in the name Triple-Layer Co-Extrusion & Dry-Cure Cable Sheath Line? As it happens, not one word of that is wasted – at least not on an operator of extrusion machinery. This is versatile

equipment. But a twin-screw co-rotation extruder must not be put to the purposes of a twin-screw rotation extruder. If it is, the results will be disappointing.

Developing dies since 1974

Since 1974, Chyi Meei Precision Industry Co Ltd has developed and manufactured a variety of natural and polycrystalline diamond dies.

Chyi Meei and Osaka Diamond Industrial Co Ltd (ALMT Corp) established a joint venture in 1998, giving access to the latest ALMT technology. With highly stable manufacturing technology, the product specification is from the maximum 8mm to the finest 0.01mm.

Chyi Meei is also an ISO 9002 certified company which provides the following products:

Natural diamond dies; polycrystalline (or sintered) diamond dies; shaped wire-drawing diamond dies; guiding dies; PVF dies; tin-coated copper dies; point dies; diamond wheel; diamond ultra precision cutting (UPC), and diamond rotary dressers.
