om;d.c;dar;tan;s-s;avi;w/d;cho;jzaModerate rotating is essential part in the HV and EHV cable insulation process and does not damage the sensitive Milliken and taped conductors. In MV cable insulation, the cable twister is used for tightening the conductor, thus improving the inner semiconductive layer smoothness.
Cable Twister KLH-HD rotates the cable around its longitudinal axis. The rotation prevents drooping of the insulation and tightens the stranded conductor. The improved conductor quality prevents the intrusion of the semiconductive material into the conductor and improves the quality of the inner semiconductive layer.
By twisting with the twister device the cable is rotated around its longitudinal axis by taking advantage of the movement of the cable and of the friction between the belts of the device and the cable surface. The symmetrical setting of the tilted belts in a certain angle against the centreline of the cable forces the cable into a rotating movement while it is passing through the centricity device.
| Cable diameter, max. | 140 mm |
| Set angle of belts, max. | ±9.5 ° |
| Weight | 1000 kg |
Exact values depend on the assembly.

The 100th multi-layer PAL line is going to Chinaust and in particular to their facilities in Changchun in northeast China. Factory Acceptance Tests took place during the last days of June 2019 in the presence of a four person delegation led by Li Hongjie, General Manager of Changchun Chinaust. Not only was it the occasion to mark a successful acceptance by the customer, but also to highlight the delivery of the 100th multi-layer automotive tube extrusion line. Indeed, representatives from both companies began plans for celebrating Chinese style once the line ready for production. Read more

Maillefer has recently acquired a Cable Checker unit for our new R&D lab. The unit is essentially a microscope connected to a hot oil bath for high resolution analysis of all parts of the cable. This equipment is particularly suited for inspection of extruded XLPE (cross-linkable polyethylene) insulated Medium, High and/or Extra-High Voltage cable samples. Both trouble shooting and quality control inspection are done with very high accuracy. Read more
