contribute to increasing the productivity and production reliability of Niehoff machines. Maschinenfabrik Niehoff

The single-bow design in combination with the Eco-Bow results in energy savings compared to conventional bunching machines. Further features include electric lay length adjustment (changing lay-length without changing gears) and constant tension control of the strands from empty to full bobbin. As the D 632 produces strands with very tight tolerances, only the minimum required copper cross-section is generated. This leads to savings in material and operating costs. The variable and controlled wire tension – independent of the spool filling – together with the integrated opto electronic NBAT (Niehoff Bunching Automatic Traverse) system allows the spools to be filled with a perfect winding pattern. It is therefore possible to pay off the strands tangle-free at high speed. of operation and the automatic NBAT system allow one operator to simul- taneously supervise the operation of several machines. The bunching data can be documented so that the user of a D 632 can provide customers with written quality documentation. Important production parameters such as winding tension, lay length and the number of twists can be logged. Niehoff condition monitoring enables users to monitor the machine and process data online.

materials, melt temperature control and high output. These advancements have led to an international patent for flame-resistant material processing technology. Visitors will also be invited to explore the expanded rod breakdown machine portfolio, now including the TS2, which complements the TS1 machine. The TS2 delivers features such as real one per cent slip, energy efficiency, performance and wire quality. ensuring precise

Rosendahl Nextrom GmbH Booth 817/F

At wire Eurasia 2025, Rosendahl Nextrom will present cable manufacturing technologies in a shared set-up with Niehoff and Telkatem. Rosendahl Nextrom says that it is driving innovation across the three pillars of tomorrow’s infrastructure: energy, communication and mobility. In communication, highlights of this year’s show will include Rosendahl’s high-temperature foaming lines for Twinax cables. The advanced insulation solution enables fast data transmission and low latency, critical for AI data centres. For mobility, the company offers the first industry-ready PEEK extrusion line for hairpin wire, and solutions for busbar insulation and high-precision automotive cables. Highlights in the energy sector include high-speed insulation for low voltage applications; sustainable solutions for medium voltage; and flexible metal shielding for high-voltage cables. A major focus for Rosendahl Nextrom is enhancing overall productivity with the thoughtful use of materials, waste reduction, minimising wear, and energy efficiency.

MFL Group extrusion equipment using HFFR material

In the wire and rope sector, Mario Frigerio’s machines, accessories and customisable solutions are designed to meet high production standards for optimal productivity and quality. With hundreds of PC strand and wire production lines delivered worldwide, MFL Group states that it continues to “push the boundaries of performance and energy efficiency”. It provides complete solutions for producing coil wire, bars and strand, from raw material to finished product, with both standard and custom applications. Its commitment to sustainability leads to the development of new solutions for rod preparation, such as in-line mechanical descaling and phosphate coating, which optimise processes while reducing the need for strong acids.

Niehoff’s D 632 type double-twist bunching machine

The D 632 buncher is suitable for processing fine wires made of copper alloys such as CuSn0.3 into strands for automotive cables. With the patented stretch forming and straightening technology, the D 632 avoids the crowning and spiralling effect typical of wires made from certain copper alloys. The maximum production speed is 300m/min. Strand cross sections (Cu soft) range from 0.09 to 6mm 2 . The lay length is steplessly variable from 6 to 100mm, and the maximum number of twists is 7,000 per minute. At the wire Eurasia booth, visitors will also be able to learn about the wide range of Niehoff LifeCycle+ services, and the benefits of myNiehoff, which
