Teflon Extruder - Wire Cable Extrusion Machine
The Teflon Extruder Machine Production Line processes materials at high temperature ranges with special process equipment. ETFE, X-ETFE, Polyimide, PEED, FEP, PFA and PVDF are handled with a material-specific extrusion screw.
The line is designed for the production of standard hook up wires, automotive, aerospace, medical, industrial and power cable applications.
Fluoroplastic cables are often used in industrial applications such as automated control and measurement systems, electric heating, Automotive and Aerospace.
Because of the excellent temperature stability, chemical resistance and mechanical and dielectric energy, these Teflon cables are very suitable for applications with aggressive media and or at high temperatures above 105°C.
Insulation of conductor
The following step in the production of conductors consists in applying an insulation layer around a flexible conductor made of various fine bare wires or around a sole rigid bare wire. This process is carried out on an extrusion line (insulating line) which includes an extruder fed continuously with granules of FPA, PVDF or any other fluoroplastics material. The wire cable extrusion machine will be mixing and heating the granules until they reach the correct temperature and viscosity. The wire will go through the cross head on the extruder in order to get the insulation layer of the desired colour. After this it will go through a trough filled with running water which will be cooling the applied material and thus solidifying it very quickly. The conductor will be going through various testing equipment in order to detect possible faults (spark tester, diameter controller, etc.) This process is generally realized at high speed.
Inner sheathing and outer final sheathing
Sometimes before the armouring process (with steel, copper or aluminum wires) is carried out, some cables made of assembled conductors might need an inner sheathing which will be applied on an extrusion line of larger capacity in order to give the cable a smooth finish. In the case the cable does not need this inner sheathing (e.g. because it is not armoured) the outer final sheathing will be applied directly.
