Kappa 310 has advanced sensor system
Contax
Kappa 310 cut and strip machine
Contax has announced the launch of Komax Switzerland's Kappa 310 cut and strip machine, which has been designed with ease of use and speed of production in mind.
The machine has an advanced sensor system that allows the machine to be used without extensive training or process knowledge.
Sensors enable the Kappa 310 to measure the diameter of a conductor inside a wire completely automatically, so that production of a new wire can start without any time-consuming set-up or data entry.
Coupled with a fast drive roller opening/closing and a feeding speed up to 4m/s, high production rates can be achieved.
The machine is rated up to 10mm outside diameter and up to 6mm2 cross-section of stranded copper wire.
