Double head cable packing line for plywood spools Domeks, a provider of many different solutions for cable packing technology, has developed a new double head automatic spooling line for cable rewinding on plywood spools, under the brand name Reelmatik 600 D. The Reelmatik 600 D consists of a 1,600 or 2,000mm motorised payoff; empty spool feeding conveyors with capacity up to 20 spools; accumulator; double head spooling and stretching unit; automatic palletising unit; and pallet stretch wrapping unit. It also features a spark test and lump detector, user-friendly control panel, and strong and reliable design. Available spool sizes include 400-600mm outside diameter, 100-250mm inner diameter, widths from 300 to 450mm, with a maximum weight of 200kg. Cable sizes are: for flexible cables 4-14mm, up to 4x6mm 2 cable cross section; for solid cables 4-12mm, up to 4x4mm 2 cable cross section; and for flat cables up to 15mm cable width. Line speed is up to 400m/min, and 40 spools per hour for 500m spool lengths. Aluminiumwire Since 1998 Telmaksan has specialised in producing aluminium and aluminium alloy drawn wires for mechanical and electrical applications. The company supplies aluminium wire in a full size range from 0.12 to 9.5mm from raw materials that meet international standards. Telmaksan has also developed production of aluminium and aluminium alloy multiwire. Lightness, flexibility and low production costs increase demand for aluminium wire for a wide range of applications, such as clip wires, tea bag wire for food industry, fine wires, weaving wires, cold heading wire for rivets screws, nails, vaporisation wires for packaging industry, etc. Aluminium and aluminium alloys are progressively replacing copper in electrical cables. As far as electrical cables are concerned, aluminium is interesting not only for its lightness but also its high conductivity. For this reason aluminium and aluminium alloy wires are now in widespread use in armour and shielding for coaxial cables, overhead lines and energy cables. Alloys 6101 (AlMgSi), 1310 Aluflex (AlFeMg) and Aluminium 1370 are mostly used in electrical applications. Telmaksan supplies these alloys in monowire as well as in multiwire.
