Wire and cable extrusion line
A wire and cable extrusion line is a specialized manufacturing system used to produce electrical wires, cables, and other types of elongated products made from materials such as plastic, rubber, or metal. Extrusion is a common process in which raw material is melted and formed into a specific shape by forcing it through a die or mold. In the case of wire and cable extrusion, this process is used to create the outer insulation or jacket for electrical wires and cables. Here are the key components and steps involved in a typical wire and cable extrusion line: Raw Material Feeding: The process begins with the feeding of raw materials, which can include plastic pellets, rubber custom aluminum extrusion compounds, or metal wire, into a hopper. These materials are typically stored in large containers or silos and are fed into the extrusion line as needed. Melting and Mixing: The raw materials are heated and melted in an extruder. Inside the extruder, the material is mixed and hom...
