Processing of wire - Import export

The WPC is an integrated solution to produce wires for switch cabinets: it marks them and crimps the corresponding wire end ferrule. The WPC loads an EPLAN or other CAE file and produces all wires within this list step by step. Cross-sections from 0.5 mm² to 2.5 mm² are supported. For each item in this list, the wire is cut to length sequentially with the help of the multi feeder Z+F EVOFEED® , the corresponding labels are printed and the correct ferrule is crimped to the wire with the UNIC-GV universal crimping machine. The thermal transfer printer (THM-MMP) is suitable for all markers and labels of the MultiMark family as well as for continuous material, fabric and polyester labels, heat shrink tubing or PLC labels. The operation of the individual steps is carried out manually, which allows the operator to route and connect the wires for the complete job in the switch cabinet wire by wire. Due to the high level of automation it is not necessary to change wires and ferrules.

Metzner has developed a fully automatic processing machine with outstanding cutting quality and great length accuracy for steel cable wires of up to 20 mm diameter. The steel cable wires are fed by a motorised feeding device in combination with a contact-free loop control. Then, program-controlled and positionally accurate marking tapes are applied to the steel cable – with a cycle time of less than two seconds. In addition, a wax printer marks all the fastening and processing points that will be required for subsequent processing. This labelling method is carried out in a continuous process. The cut is then made using a special cutting process. Precise length accuracy is achieved by a special laser measuring system. A material stacker with a storage area of up to 12 metres ensures that the steel cable wires are deposited in an orderly manner. All cut steel rope can be stored and sorted according to length to allow it to be removed at a later point.

This special Metzner development is able to process cable wires with a diameter of up to 28 mm. The cycle time for this is 2000 mm / 35 seconds. The processing steps include long slitting, sawing, circumferential cutting, stripping, brushing and depositing. An integrated ink jet printer labels the cable wires with information or markings. As the heart of the processing method, Metzner uses a newly developed stripping head that combines a rotary cut with a powerful clamping and simultaneous rotation of the material. This enables a high-precision, multi-stage radial cut through the various layers of material. Microscopic quality inspection confirms that the processing is flawless with no scratches, pressure or abrasion marks. In addition to the high machining quality, the machinery also offers special precision: both the overall length and the machining position are maintained with an accuracy of 0.2 mm. The machine can process cable wires with diameters up to 28 mm.

Multiple EM 600 stations in combination with a cost-effective transfer system provide the additional benefits of the EM 700 series: higher degree of automation, no limit to the number of stations, modular and scalable, single- or double-sided processing

The automatic cutting and stripping machine processes cables, strands and wires up to 9 mm diameter and 6mm² cable cross-section with a special cutting and pull-off force (optional 10 mm², depending on material). The presettings are conveniently made via the modern 12" touch panel, where the operator can define all processes. Thanks to the sensors for diameter and material recognition, the AM 1000 works extremely precisely. Another special feature is the tool-free replacement of guides and rollers. This means that the AM 1000 can be changed over in just one minute. With the extensive interface preparation, the machine can be optimally expanded with peripheral devices and adapts to all customer requirements. The compact design with retractable touch-screen and the low weight of only 28 kg also offer special comfort. This makes the AM 1000 especially easy to transport.

The Metzner EM 300 platform offers further convenience in high-voltage cable processing through a quick change of process tools and faster cycle times. Depending on the requirements, the HV cable processing machine can thus be equipped with different tools for cable processing. This means that the EM 300 can be used for several processing steps and is prepared for a wide range of processes. In addition, with the EM 300 we protect your investment by offering improved expandability that enables “plug-and-play” integration of future new applications.

Plastic-coated steel cablestrands are cut to length using a special shear cut module and then stripped with the cutting module of the AM3500 without the wires "jumping open".Bare steel cable wires are transported by the modified AM 3500 directly to the special cutting machine, which is coupled between the AM 3500 and the material stacker and which cuts the material to length by a thermal process. Due to the special electric welding process used here, the individual wires do not twist up during cutting, and a smooth rope start and a smooth rope end without thickening are produced. Long steel cable wires/strands are placed in a tray after processing, while short pieces of material fall down a chute into a collecting container. With the high-performance solution developed by Metzner, the customer can process different types of material in different processes. Further advantages of the machinery are high precision, high quality, an increase in productivity and lower personnel costs.

Metzner offers low-cost individual stations in the field of e‑mobility for the entry into high-voltage cable processing. For the first time, the EM 101 module offers a solution for removing the cable foil without affecting the cable shield. The automatic processing of high-voltage cable wires also necessitates the connection of various components of the connector system. The Metzner EM 102 takes care of this. The EM 103 allows the cable shield to be opened and cut using a patented process which ensures that there is absolutely no contact with the inner insulation. The EM 103S offers the functionality of the proven EM 103 to meet the requirements of smaller cable wires of up to 8 mm diameter. These cost-effective models cannot be integrated into an automation line and are equipped with only limited traceability functions.

• TIG welding: The letters TIG stand for tungsten inert gas welding and generally belong to the inert gas welding process. In this welding process, an arc burns between a tungsten electrode (non-consumable) and the workpiece. The electrode, the arc and the molten bath are protected from the atmosphere by an inert gas. • MIG / MAG welding: The letters MIG stand for metal inert gas, the letters MAG for metal active gas. This welding process is also part of the group of metal inert gas welding processes. In this welding process, a consumable wire electrode is fed continuously. The arc burns between the supplied wire and the workpiece. Throughout the welding process, the arc and the weld pool are protected by either an active gas (MAG process) or an inert gas (MIG process). This welding process can be used for a variety of materials and is also available for a large number of welding consumables.
