Silicone rubber cable extrusion machines are specialized equipment used in the manufacturing process of silicone rubber cables. These machines are designed to efficiently extrude and shape silicone rubber compounds into cables with specific dimensions and properties. Here is a detailed overview of silicone rubber cable extrusion machines:
Machine Components:
Pay off Frame: Holds the supply spool of the cable's conductor wire.
Main Extruding Machine: Consists of a heated barrel and a rotating screw that melts and pushes the silicone rubber compound through the die.
Cooling Water Tank: Cools down the extruded cable to solidify it.
Blow Dry: Removes excess water from the cable after cooling.
Printer: Marks the cable with necessary information or identification.
Capstan: Pulls the cable at a controlled speed to ensure consistent tension.
Take-up and Arrangement Machine: Collects and arranges the finished cable onto a spool or reel.
Temperature Control Electrical Operation Cabinet: Controls and monitors the temperature and operation of the extrusion process.
Machine Specifications:
Available Models: Different models are available based on the required production capacity and cable specifications.
Main Motor Power: The power of the motor driving the extruder, typically ranging from 11 kW to 45 kW.
Pushes Rubber Quantity: The amount of silicone rubber compound processed per hour, ranging from 30 kg/h to 260 kg/h.
Screw Diameter: The diameter of the screw inside the extruder, ranging from 45 mm to 120 mm.
Line Speed: The speed at which the cable is extruded, typically ranging from 4 m/min to 200 m/min.
Wire Diameter: The range of wire diameters that can be processed, from 0.2 mm to 15 mm.
Finished Cable Diameter: The range of finished cable diameters produced, from 0.8 mm to 20 mm.
Heating Power: The power required for heating the extruder, typically provided in sections.
Traction Motor Power: The power of the motor driving the capstan, ensuring proper tension during extrusion.
Vulcanization Tank Length: The length of the tank used for curing the cable, ensuring proper cross-linking of the silicone rubber.
