WIRE & CABLE INDIA

28-30 October

Its R&D team, in association with overseas technical experts, has developed diamond coated (CVD) dies (popularly called Nano dies) for copper and aluminium compacting and in-house pneumatic semi-automatic tungsten carbide die polishing and grinding machine model TCD-10, with a bore range from 0.4 to 22mm. Diamond coated (CVD) dies, which are a completely new set of diamond dies are far less than the cost of solid diamond nib. After continuous research on diamond coated (CVD) dies, Ajex has introduced more than 1mm plasma alloy of diamond coated (CVD) coating with zirconia layer. For lowering its cost, Ajex is using CVD technology for making these dies. It can re-cut, re-polish, resize and recoat these dies up to 29mm because of the many layers. For larger sizes, re-cut and re-sizing is not possible. TCD-10 in-house pneumatic semi- automatic tungsten carbide die polishing and grinding machine will keep customers ahead in the area of die polishing and grinding as it saves time and energy and is also cost effective. The machine operates at high speed and can recondition dies in a short period. It provides accurate and precise angles on re-cut dies. Customers can achieve a mirror polish using diamond suspension and steel pins. Ajex & Turner Wire Dies Co – India Website : www.ajexturner.com Wire machinery manufacturer Assomac has supplied more than 1,000 projects with a complete range of high speed, state-of-the-art straight line and fine wire drawing machines for high production drawing of wires, which lowers operator interference. The company has developed the straight line wire drawing machine technology with a range of machines with varying capstan diameters from 1,200mm down to 300mm for inlet wire diameters of 40mm down to 0.7mm and up to .30 fine wires with line speeds up to 25m/sec. The machines give excellent drawing performance for low, medium and high carbon steel wire, stainless steel wire and special alloy steel wire, as well as non-ferrous wires.

AEI Machines Stand: 1B44

Associated Engineers & Industrials (AEI), the rotating cable machines manufacturer, will be addressing the industry’s need of machines for higher tolerance power cables and new specification overhead conductor, with its latest line of rigid stranding machines.

❍ The AFC Compact 3D Bender

The AFC Compact enables smaller companies to bring in automation and larger ones to offset current capacity. A standard one-year warranty, slip ring technology, DXF/XYZ importation, animation simulator and ease of programming are a few of the features of the AFC Series machines. In addition, robotics, external chamfering and other ancillary devices can be integrated. Upgraded and updated 2D and 3D CNC wire bending solutions, single and double bending head machines with Fanuc robotics integration and complete automated systems all form part of the bender. In all instances, wire can be fed directly from a coil, straightened, bent and cut using a software package that provides flexibility and simplicity in programming and is offered in all universal languages.

The stranders have been designed to deliver accurate back tension, smooth strand deviation and precise lay control. Equipped with the heavy-duty compacting head (die/roll/prespiral Milliken), these features translate into quality compacted conductor for low, medium and extra high voltage power cables. Enhanced cage speeds and use of fully automatic bobbin batch loading systems (floor type or side trolley type) ensure higher production efficiency and uptime, features required for overhead conductor manufacture. Also on display will be recently developed heads for the manufacture of latest generation HTLS/TW over- head conductor. AEI is focused on the development and production of rigid stranding machines. With a continuous presence of 43 years the company has in-depth understanding of the challenges and solutions for the stranding process. Visitors to the AEI stand will be able to discuss their stranding requirements with the company’s team and under- stand the latest advancements and technology highlights from the experts.
