NTT – driving down production costs

▲

Nuova Tecno Tau’s new delta line enamelling plant will help enamelled wire producers cut production costs. Around a third of the production cost is used in electrical energy consumption. The delta line combats this by ensuring the energy developed inside every enamelling oven stays inside the oven, while a new steam generator system uses the hot air from each enamelling oven to produce the necessary steam for the annealing oven. This allows the delta line plant to claim the lowest electrical energy consumption. Technicians have ensured Greater efficiency from NTT

that the machines are easy to use and maintain, adding to cost savings. The annealing ovens are assembled externally from the enamelling oven frame, providing generous space to access the electrical heaters. The enamel applicator can easily be removed for a thorough cleaning. The transmission belts and motors are also assembled in such a way that makes them easily accessible to the operator.
