POWER CABLES

The requirements expected from the in-line measurement technology during manufacturing are getting increasingly stringent with all power cables, from installation cables to EHV cables.The thickness, diameter and centricity tolerances of the insulation layers and sheaths are getting increasingly tighter, due to technical and economical factors. At the same time, there is a steady increase in the cable dimensions, in insulation thickness and in the outside diameter.Faulty spots on the surface and in the insulation must be reliably detected and documented.

The instruments are based on the following technologies:

•X-ray,dynamicorstaticforCVlines•Ultrasonicforsheaths•Laserscanningfordiameterandovality• Imageprocessingforsurfacedefects•Sparktestingfordielectric

Zumbach solutions for nearly all processes and cable types:•Extrusionofinsulation

and jackets for round and sector cables

Special cables are to be found in the fields of high temperature, safety engineering, chemistry, automotive, aeronautics, shipbuilding, robotics, superconductivity,medical technology miniaturization and many more. They also require specific in-line measuring solutions taking geometry and materials into account.

Also special shapes such as flat cables, ribbon cables, figure 8 cables, etc., must be tested.Drawn or enamelled conducting wires made of copper, tungsten or from special alloys, with diameters down to 10 microns, require the utmost accuracy while drawing and during the enamelling process.

Fibre optic cablesmake very particular demands on the in-linemeasuringtechnique.This is due to the extremely small dimensions of the fibre itself, with tolerances in the sub-micron range when drawing and coating.

A high accuracy must also be maintained with the next processes such as "Loose Tubing" and external jacketing.
