MFL Group/Mario Frigerio drawing line

MFL Group also provides green solutions for rod preparation, such as mechanical descaling and phosphate coating. of configurations, MFL’s lines are capable of producing general-purpose rope to highly engineered products, such as those used in deep mining or oil and gas mooring applications. Available in a wide range

MFL Group is a family-owned company specialising in industrial machinery for wire, cable and rope manufacturers. The company, which started as a small workshop in 1897, now has 450 employees across six manufacturing plants and nine sales/service offices in Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Spain, the USA and China. The group caters to wire and rope manufacturers across a wide spectrum of industries and applications, offering wire rod preparation lines, drawing lines, cold rolling lines, reinforcement steel wire lines, welding lines, induction tempering and hardening lines, automatic rewinding and packaging lines, wire treatment lines, cold heading and ball bearing lines, low relaxation PC lines, and sheathing lines, as well as stranding and closing lines. In the wire and cable industry, it provides an array of machinery encompassing drawing lines, stranding lines, extrusion lines and treatment lines. At wire China, the wire and cable team will introduce PEEK-coated cable extrusion lines. The machines produce insulated magnet wire with minimal insulation thickness and better adhesion. The MFL Group offers complete machinery for PEEK-insulated magnet wire production, from rod breakdown to final extrusion. Safety in building cables is increasingly important, with HFFR materials be- coming prominent. Collaborating with the major plastics manufacturers, MFL’s engineers have developed a full range of machines for these materials. The innovations have led to an international patent for flame-resistant material processing technology. In the wire and rope industry, Mario Frigerio drawing lines offer a comprehensive range of machines, accessories and customisable solutions. The lines are designed to meet production requirements, ensuring high levels of productivity and quality. This includes the capability to produce specialised products such as bridge cable wire and high tensile products.

Medek & Schörner GmbH Stand: E1 F14

Medek & Schörner will be attending wire China 2024, sharing the stand of its business partner Herkula. Herkula offers speciality inks for the cable and plastics industry, such as optimised UV-LED inks, which are suited to Medek & Schörner’s newly developed optical fibre UV-LED curing unit. Medek & Schörner, established in 1929, is a supplier of cable marking machines and optical fibre processing lines. Being constantly confronted with new requirements, the company is consistently engaged in developing solutions. Its latest innovations are a new optical fibre colouring line with production speed of more than 3,000m/min and colouring of up to three optical fibres simultaneously; an optical fibre colouring and curing station using LED irradiation units; new ring marking technology; improved FMS 5 hot foil sequential metre marker with a marking wheel that memorises and automatically aligns to different cable diameters; and cutting-edge intermittent ribbon technology. The product range begins with simple coding machines and extends all the way to fully automated high-speed production lines. The product portfolio includes optical fibre colour coating systems, including ring marking, tight buffering and
