Ltd will show a D 632 type double twist bunching machine built in left to right version (booth G 33). This machine is designed to produce strands with 0.09 to 6.00 mm² cross section and a steplessly variable lay length of 6 to 100 mm. The maximum number of twists is 6,500 twists/min, the maximum speed 300 m/min. The machine is ideally suited for the manufacture of strands of copper alloy wires (e.g. CuMg alloys) for automotive wires. screen display with color user interface and simplified navigation structure.
