Galvanized Steel Wire machine and Cable Extrusion Process Features and Characteristics
Galvanizing, or galvanization, is a manufacturing process in which a coating of zinc is applied to iron and steel wires to provide them with additional protection and anti-rusting properties. There are so many galvanizing processes available but hot-dip galvanizing is the most common one performed on galvanized steel wire machine. Galvanized steel is considered to be the most popular steel types for the following reasons:
● It is extremely durable and robust
● Has unmatched strength and formability
● Offers unmatched protection of the zinc-iron coating
● Can withstand any type of harsh and extreme weather conditions.
The zinc coating protects the base metal and acts as a strong barrier to all types of corrosive elements resulting in a durable and high-quality steel product.
The following are the steps in the galvanizing process:
● First of all, the steel is cleaned in a degreasing solution
● Then it is pickled into a vat of diluted hot sulfuric acid
● Then it is fluxed in zinc-ammonium chloride
● After the flux, the steel is galvanized by dipping it into a vat of molten zinc
● Finally, the material is inspected for the quality of coating and consistency.
The wire that is produced using galvanized steel wire machine features the following:
Resistant to Corrosion
Regular steel that is composed of iron starts rusting and breaking down as and when it is exposed to high levels of moisture and humidity. But galvanized steel is treated with a powerful zinc coating that provides it with outstanding protection against moisture and humidity. As a result, galvanized steel wire produced using galvanized steel wire machine provided by the top extrusion and dual capstan supplier can withstand any kind of environmental conditions. It never corrodes when exposed to water or humidity.
Low Cost
Galvanized steel is considered to be the most cost-effective coated steel than other options available today. The galvanized wire made using this type of steel is more economical than any other wiring solution. The wire is ready to be used just after the delivery and it also takes no heavy manpower for the
installation. In most cattle farms in Europe and other developed and even developing countries, steel galvanized wire manufactured through a galvanized steel wire machine provided by the top extrusion machine and dual capstan supplier is most widely used.
All of us often hear about various devastating and horrible fire incidents across structures including residential buildings, commercial places, and factories. These incidents cause a lot of loss of human lives and assets. And, when such incidents are investigated, the primary reason behind them is found to be short circuits. The main reason behind these short circuits lies in the deterioration of the insulation of the electric conductors. The wires and cables that are manufactured on an advanced EV Charging cable extrusion line do not show such symptoms.
As for the most common process, the extrusion of thermoplastic and thermosetting is both popular and trendy these days. It’s a process carried out in a facility provided by the standard and EV Charging cable extrusion line manufacturers and suppliers in India wherein external heat resistors and an internal barrel are used to achieve the end products. Through a specially designed die, these materials are shaped into the desired forms.
In another process that’s dedicated particularly to rubber extrusion, many types of vulcanization solutions are put into use to heat the insulation after the die trough.
Quality parameters in wire and cable extrusion
During the extrusion process carried out in a facility provided by the top standard and EV Charging cable extrusion line manufacturers and suppliers in India, wire coating extrusion quality is what matters more than anything else. It is imperative to be extremely watchful of so many parameters including the operating conditions, the nature of material or compounds to be extruded, the quality of dies, pressure put, and the material in-feed. In case any defect surfaces, they need to be nipped in the bud.
