Description

Multi-wire technology creates several advantages as well as challenges for the wire and cable manufacturer. In the production of nonferrous wires and cables, multi-wire technology impacts all production steps including rod production, drawing, annealing, bunching/stranding, extrusion and packaging. The numerous advantages of multi-wire technology range from increased product quality to reduced copper usage, and the challenges posed to the wire producer surface in the forms of increased process monitoring, intensified feedback systems and changes in traditional work methods.
