will exhibit two of its energy-e cient rod welders. Visitors will be able to watch demonstrations of cold welding and see PWM’s proven technology at work.

process cables with very small sections, down to 0.15mm 2 . It also guarantees a steady control on tension during the unwinding process (acceleration, maximum speed and deceleration). The loading and unloading of the reel pintles is fast and automatic. The operator only has to place the reel between the two pintles and select the reel diameter. Loading and unloading take place by means of a steel platform, activated by a pneumatic cylinder.

Single twist strander from Pourtier

▲

➣➢➣ Several machines are in production throughout the world and many units are on order. A single twist strander type ‘ST2000’ will represent the range of laying-up and steel wire armouring machines for special, instrumentation and control cables. Pourtier France provides high quality stranders and cablers made in Europe with the highest standards in design and manufacturing for the production of all types of high voltage and extra-high voltage power cable, from overhead to insulated, AC type (using high quality Milliken conductor) or DC type (using large round compacted conductor or trapezoidal wires). Upgrading and services departments will highlight most recent developments to maintain and improve production capacity of existing machinery. Pourtier – France Website : www.gaudergroup.com

Proven technology from PWM

▲

Designed and built by PWM, the P1000 and the EP500 machines o er wire and cable manufacturers a fast, cost-e ective method of welding large non-ferrous rod sections 5mm to 20mm (0.197" to 0.790") in diameter. Both models are energy e cient, low maintenance, and extremely simple to operate. The P1000 hydraulic rod welder o ers wire and cable manufacturers a host of time-saving design features, packed into a compact frame. Power consumption is minimal and the P1000 requires no heat, ux or llers, so is clean, easy and safe to operate. The sloping mechanical parts give the operator a clear view of the cold weld process, while quick release dies and an easily adjustable die setting mechanism ensure that die changeover is fast and problem-free. The P1000 has a wide capacity of 6mm to 16mm (0.236" to 0.63") copper and 6mm to 20mm (0.236" to 0.79") aluminium.

Newmodel from PS Costruzioni

This platform has two movements: • Vertical: for loading/unloading the spool, by means of a pneumatic cylinder • Horizontal (sideways): for easily taking out the reel from the pintles. The horizontal movements take place on bearings PS Costruzioni – Italy Website : www.pscostruzioni.com
