1 Power Cord Production Process: Copper, Aluminum Monofilament Drawing System
Electronic wire manufacturers of power cord commonly used copper, aluminum rod material, at room temperature, the application of wire drawing machine Electronic wire manufacturers of power cord commonly use copper, aluminum rod material, at room temperature, the application of wire drawing machine after a or several stretching dies to die hole, so that its cross-sectional reduction, length increase, strength progress. Wire drawing is the first process of the electrical wire and cable companies. Drawing the primary process parameters is to match the mold craft.
2 Power Cord Monofilament Annealing
Copper, aluminum monofilament in the heating to a certain temperature, recrystallize the method to improve the toughness of the monofilament, reduce the strength of the monofilament to meet the wire requirements, and cable on the conductive wire core. An annealing process is a key to eradicating the oxidation of copper wire.
3 Power Cord Production Process: Cord Conductor Stranding System
In order to improve the flexibility of the electronic wire manufacturer’s power cable, in order to lay the device, the conductive core accepts multiple monofilaments stranded. The conductive core of the stranded way can be divided into rules stranded and non-rules stranded. Non-rules stranding is also divided into bundle stranding, flush complex stranding, extraordinary stranding, etc. To reduce the area occupied by the conductor, reduce the geometry of the power line of the electronic wire manufacturers. The stranded conductor also uses the tight pressure method so that the common round variation into a semicircle, fan, tile, and tight pressure of the round. This conductor is mainly used in the electronic wire manufacturer’s power cord.
4 Power Cord Production Process: Cable Insulation Extrusion
Plastic electronic wire manufacturers of power lines are mainly used in the extrusion of solid type insulation layer, plastic insulation extrusion of the primary craft requirements.
5 Power Cord Into Wire
On the multi-core electronic wire manufacturers of power cords, in order to manage the degree of molding, reduce the shape of the electronic wire manufacturers of power lines, the general need to be stranded in the round. Stranding mechanism and conductor stranding are similar because the stranded section diameter is larger, most of the non-return twist method. The craft requirements for cable formation: one is to eradicate the shaped insulation core turned over and incurred the twist of the cable; the second is to avoid the insulation layer being scratched.
6 Power Wire Within the Protective Layer
To maintain the insulated wire core is not armor lumps, the need for proper maintenance of the insulation layer, the inner protective layer is divided into extrusion package inner protective layer (isolation sleeve) and wrapped around the inner protective layer (mat layer). Wrap around the mat layer instead of tying tape and cable process synchronization.
7 Power Cable Armored
The power cable laid in the underground electronic wire manufacturers can accept the inevitable positive pressure. You can choose the inner steel belt armored structure. Electronic wire manufacturer’s power line laid in positive pressure and tension effect places (such as water, vertical shaft, or drop in the mud) should choose the apparatus with the inner steel wire armor structure.
8 Power Cord Production Process: Cable Outer Sheath
According to the electronic wire manufacturer’s different requirements, the power line application extrusion machine directly extrusion package plastic sheath. The outer sheath is to maintain the electronic wire manufacturer’s power line insulation layer to avoid the situation elements of corrosion of the structure of the part. The primary effect of the outer sheath is to improve the mechanical strength of the electronic wire manufacturer’s power line, chemical erosion, moisture, water immersion to prevent the electronic wire manufacturer’s power line burning and other capabilities.
