Aluminum Clad Steel Wire Production Line

In the demanding field of overhead power transmission and optical ground wire (OPGW) manufacturing, aluminum-clad steel (AS) wire and soft aluminum sheathing must deliver exceptional conductivity, mechanical strength, and long-term corrosion resistance. The RLB Continuous Cladding Aluminum Clad Steel Wire Production Line (models RLB315/132, RLB350-2/200, and RLB400-2/250) provides a proven tangential continuous extrusion solution that produces uniform, high-integrity aluminum cladding in a single high-speed pass — ideal for AS wire and soft cladding applications in OPGW and fireproof cables.

This advanced single-wheel (single- or double-groove) tangential cladding system ensures sufficient material flow, minimal leakage (≤5 %), and outstanding product uniformity, outperforming traditional methods in both quality and productivity.

Advanced Engineering Features

• Extended Extrusion Belt Design: Provides longer contact time and more complete material compaction, resulting in dense, homogeneous cladding with excellent bonding to the steel core.
• Special Heat-Treated Extrusion Wheel: Significantly extends service life compared to conventional wheels while maintaining precise groove geometry under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions.
• Tangential Cladding Technology: Single-wheel single-groove or double-groove configuration delivers stable, high-speed cladding with superior concentricity and surface finish.
• High-Output Performance: Line speeds up to 180 m/min and robust main drive motors (132–250 kW) support efficient large-scale production.
• Versatile Raw Material Handling: Compatible with single or dual aluminum rods (Φ9.5 mm or Φ12 mm) for flexible production scheduling.

These features translate into lower operating costs, reduced scrap rates, and consistently high-quality AS wire and soft aluminum sheathing that meet stringent international standards for OPGW and high-voltage applications.
