High quality comes with experience

Wire coatings are used by almost every industry for a variety of applications, including electrical motors, transformers or electrical measuring systems. For these applications the wire coating industry is producing mainly enamelled copper wire which has to endure the highest mechanical and thermal strain during bending, coiling or soldering. A perfect surface of enamelled wire is largely responsible for the quality and durability of the finished products in subsequent production steps. Especially when it comes to rather small wires, with diameters down to 20μm, used for instance in microelectronics, poor die selection may lead to an inferior coating, causing a high number of rejections during further processing. Since its formation in 1972, Euromicron has been a notable company in the design and fabrication of high-quality dies for the wire coating industry, and has long-term experience in the production of mechanical precision turning and milling parts and bores. Whether for enamelling round, flat or profiled wires, for fibre optics or even textiles, Euromicron has appropriate die solutions which lead through their precision to better production outcomes and fewer rejections. To ensure that the manufactured results of the different dies are always perfect, the whole production process is continuously monitored by a strict quality management system which

guarantees complete process tracking and control, from material procurement to the application of the final touches on the product. A hybrid air-conditioned Zeiss measuring machine with a probing error of less than 2μm checks size tolerances throughout the manufacture, securing the elevated precision and quality characteristics of the finished products. In addition, statistical process control, random sampling and thorough adjustment of the process parameters guarantee a trouble-free fabrication at all times.
