EJP is to Show its Further Developed Type PSP Peeling Lines for Solid Metal Bar at Wire China and Wire India 2016 Fairs

Peeling, straightening and polishing of solid metal bar; Double laser scanning boosts peeling process accuracy; End-product data feedback optimises peeling head adjustment.

The newly developed control system now installed adjusts the peeling head on the basis of the dimensions of the finished, straightened and polished rod. This makes it possible to control the process to ensure that the specified finished-product dimensions are met with extreme precision.

The new feature is measurement of the net dimensions of the finished rods and feedback of the results to the peeling process. Until now, the diameter of the peeled rods was measured only in the peeling machine. The measured data was used to adjust the peeling cutters to compensate for wear. The final dimensions had to be measured manually after straightening and polishing, since the straightening-process rolls could still then change the diameter. The resultant data could then only be entered time-consumingly and only on the basis of a subjective estimation by the operator.

EJP now equips these peeling lines with a second laser diameter measuring system downstream the two-roll straightening and polishing machine. This accurately measures the diameter of the finished product and relays it directly back to the peeling process. The control system registers the change in diameter in the straightening process and adjusts the cutters correspondingly. The result: rod products that conform precisely to the customer’s specifications.

Another new feature is the fact that EJP now measures the diameter of the rods in two laser axes, instead of only one. The operator thus also receives information on rod out-of-roundness.

Type PM peeling machines feature a patented peeling head which keeps the cutters stable under all operating conditions. A unique system adjusts the peeling head to compensate for tool wear; the cutters are adjusted by rotating the inner section, on which the cutter holders are mounted, in the outer ring of the peeling head. The guide elements for the outer ring are eccentric, with the result that the spacing of the cutters from the centre axis is set precisely by a simple movement of the two components relative to each other.

EJP in this way eliminates play in moving mechanical components, which can otherwise develop when racks and pinions are used. The cutters are readjusted under control even after long periods of operation, with the result that they are always accurately centred. This system also eliminates complex and costly maintenance.

Another benefit is the fact that the cutter holders are always fully supported within the housing of the machine as a whole. Unlike cone-based cutter guidance systems, they have no tendency to vibrate, particularly in the case of large section diameters.

New presence in India

Since April 2016, EJP has been represented in India by Kemtech International Private Ltd. This company specialises in metallurgical industry systems and machinery for the production of wire, cables and tubes, in particular. Anuraag Mahajan, CEO of Kemtech, has known the industry for decades and is therefore the high-capability contact for his country’s customers.Kemtech also deploys specially trained service technicians for servicing of EJP machines.

Lifeline Technologies to Display its Rodent/Termite/Ant Repellant Additive Chemicals at wire China 2016 and Wire & Cable India 2016, Mumbai

Lifeline Technologies offers an additive based on mixture of odor emitting chemicals and very bitter compounds unaccepted by rodents.

Rodent Repellent: About forty percent of all mammal species are rodents; they are found in vast numbers on all continents except Antarctica. They are the most diversified mammalian order and live in a variety of terrestrial habitats, including human-made environments. Rodents cause serious losses to agricultural, storage, houses, Cables, underground pipes and other commodities. All types of damages caused by rodents are not because their feeding activity only. Rodents have the constant urge to bite something to polish their incisors (front teeth), which is growing at the rate of 0.4 mm /day. These growing incisors are the most destructive to rodents. If they don’t gnaw frequently, their teeth can grow so long that they can no longer feed themselves and will starve to death. Hence, Rodents chew several products like cables, duct, plastic doors, wires, sidings, benches, molded plastic parts, drip irrigation pipes, etc. products due to presence of plasticizers, aromatic odors, bright colors and the texture of polymer products.

There are few species of rodent widely distributed in India, viz. the Indian gerbil, Tateraindica, the lesser Bandicoot rat, BandicotaBengalensis and the five stripped squirrel, Funambuluspennati. The lesser Bandicoot rat, BandicotaBengalensis is one of the most important rodent pest in Indian Agriculture, occurring in and around human settlements and also in fields and is cosmopolitan in distribution. T. indica is essentially a field rodent species distributed in various part of the country (except the hills).

There are two methods for testing of Rodent Repellent,

1. Choice Test – This is 30 days test in which rodents are exposed to a piece of cable, which is manufactured with rodent repellent. Food provided to rodent for 30 days and after the period of completion that cable piece is tested to check how many times rodent bite.

2. No Choice Test –This is 7 days test in which rodents are exposed to a piece of cable which is coated with rodent repellent. In this period of time only water supply to the rodent, after the period of completion that cable piece is tested to check how many times rodent bite.

Lifeline Technologies offers an additive based on mixture of odor emitting chemicals and very bitter compounds unaccepted by rodents. Rodent Repellent does not kill but only keeps the animal away by making use of the sensory mechanisms. The product functions from a distance due to the foul smell which generates a typical fear response in the animal. Rodent Repellent actually helps in modifying animal behavior.

Ant cum Termite Repellent: Ant/Termites are often called the “silent destroyer” because they may be secretly hiding and thriving in your home or yard without any immediate signs of damage. All termites consume cellulose-based plant materials. Unfortunately, all homes, regardless of their construction type, can provide cellulose food for termite infestation. A termite’s mouth is capable of tearing pieces of woody material. This ability is what causes concern in human dwellings: while termite workers only measure approximately 1 cm to a few millimeters in length, their feeding habits are capable of causing costly damage to property. Cables, ducts, pipes and plastics are all possible feeding sites for termites.

Thermoplastics materials have always attracted insects. The plasticizers & the aromatic odors of polymers, the bright colors & the texture of polymer products attract insects.

Lifeline Technologies offers an additive based on mixture of odor emitting chemicals and very bitter compounds unaccepted by ants & termite. It does not kill but only keeps the ants & insects away from attacking polymers.

One Pack System: The company also provides above repellents in One Pack system,

Repellent + UV Master Batch

This allows slip recovery between each section and at the inlet side. All motors are synchronised by means of a control motion system. Slipping reduction and the improvement in the quality of gear transmission, bearings and seals result in a reduction of energy consumption by 10-15% and in a consequent improvement of production costs. Die holders have been specifically designed to improve wire lubrication within the die, to reduce friction and to facilitate the wire cleaning, thereby enhancing the product quality and prolonging the die life. Zirconium oxide pulling rings are used to reach the best possible quality surface of the wire.

The Sampsistemi Annealing Platform includes a number of technical features, such as multimotor technology, adjustable pre-heating length and a wire-walker before contact rings. In addition, the cleaning device on contact rings ensures the integrity of the wire surface, the requested physical properties (mechanical strength, elongation, conductivity and resistance) and maintains the diameter and roundness of the wire. The control system is able to set up production parameters, in particular the kinematic ratio between each axis, in order to form a production recipe stored in the HMI panel. The Annealer Platform is completed with the latest development in annealing technology, in particular the development of the electronic equipment that reduces current distortion (THD-I) and energy waste (PF > 0.90).

TROESTER Group to Exhibits at Wire & Cable India 2016

TROESTER will present the new TRENDSEAL, a variable Endseal System for CV Lines at the show; the variable Endseal TRENDSEAL eliminates the requirement for seal changes during product changes in all types of CV lines and thus decreases tool changing times.

Each CV Tube is equipped with one or more endseals in order to keep the cooling medium in process while the cable proceeds. Depending on the cable diameter to be processed, it is required to change the applicable sealing and support ring sets per cable type. In order to avoid operator errors and to minimize product changing times, TROESTER has developed the variable endseal system TRENDSEAL.

A concave shaped roller pair, driven by AC motor can be easily adjusted to seal a wide range of different conductor and cable diameters respectively. The rolls are coated with a high resistant rubber compound to ensure a perfect sealing behavior in abrasion proof design. Vulkollan seals or silicone lamellas and corresponding pressure and support ring sets are not required anymore!

TRENDSEAL is used in all types of CV lines (CCV, VCV and Rubber CV Lines) for universal sealing applications during the production of Medium and High Voltage cables. One TRENDSEAL replaces the conventional endseal systems like Single End Seal, Double End Seal and Lead Wire Seal.

TRENDSEAL minimizes scrap at start-up and eliminates complex handling and costs by having only one universal endseal device, said Dirk Schmidt, Sales Director Cable Machinery Division at TROESTER. Having approved its capabilities in long-term operation for more than two years in several cable plants, it is now ready for supply in new CV Lines with water and/or nitrogen cooling circuits and for upgrade of existing CV Lines.

Moreover, on the Wire India 2016, TROESTER will present information and new developments in the field of:

> CCV and VCV Lines for MV, HV and EHV Cables up to 1000 kV
