Product Details

To meet the needs of economic development, the power supply system is developing towards higher and higher voltage levels. In the power supply system, ultra-high-voltage power cables play a role in power transmission. These types of cables generally require a metal sheath structure to meet the performance requirements of the cable itself and the requirements of the environment.
At present, metal sheath of ultra-high voltage power cables is generally protected by inert gas (helium or argon), after the aluminum tape (stainless steel tape) is finely cut, the longitudinal seam is formed by a special mold and then the longitudinal seam is welded. Finally, it is produced by stretching, sizing and crimping. LT-HG200 argon arc welding, molding and corrugating production line provided by our company is a special equipment for manufacturing high-performance ultra-high voltage power cable metal sheath.
The technical difficulty is welding process, but we have rich experience in this field. By drawing on the technical characteristics of the European welding production line, taking advantage of the shortcomings, continuous technological innovation, the reliability, stability and convenient operation of the equipment welding have become the domestic leading level, which can be comparable to European equipment.

1. Features

1. Easy to operate. The welding torch can meet the arbitrary adjustment of the three axis directions of X, Y, and Z, with the welding gun rapid turning device, and the welding gun automatic tracking system to ensure that the welding pin is always directly above the welding seam.
2. Stable operation. Specially designed forming tool and multi-channel horn die gradual forming to ensure stable welding.
3. Humanized design. The production line can roll ring patterns and spiral patterns, patterns of rolling can be concentric or eccentric. The depth and pitch of corrugating can be adjusted online.

    Main Components

    The equipment is mainly composed of cable core pay-off stand, cable core pay off bracket, Tape pay-off, welding platform, tape feed positioning device, precision cutter device, tape discharge positioning device, waste edge receiving device, precision molding device, welding mold frame, welding gun adjustment device, welding machine, gas supplier, diameter die fixed, welding cooling device, caterpillar capstan, corrugating machine, take-up and traverser, arc monitoring system, electrical control system, etc.

    1. Precision Cutter

    Precision Cutter
    The device is vertical roll cutting, consists of two cutters and two sleeves. It is used to continuously cut metal strip to the required width for welding round tube. The left and right knife sets are based on the positioning of the vertical plane of the production line and the guide key way, and the width of the cutting band is adjusted by the precise positive and negative threads at the same time; the upper and lower knife sets are based on the lower knife set, and the upper knife set can be along the X and Z axes. Finely adjust the feed amount and knife gap to ensure that the cutting belt is smooth and uniform without burrs.
    The cutter material is high-speed tool steel. When the cutter has been used for a long time, the blade will be blunt, remove the blade, just sharpen it with a surface grinder, reinstall it, and adjust the side clearance between the blades with the dial.

    2. Corrugating Machine

    Corrugating Machine
    It is used to roll corrugation on the drawn metal pipe. The corrugating machine adopts a special spindle structure, which has good rotation accuracy and sufficient support stiffness to ensure the surface quality of the metal sheath after corrugating; the corrugating and traction are mechanically synchronized, the corrugating pitch is stable and the depth can be adjusted online and display in time, easy to adjust.
    The corrugating can perform concentric or eccentric, the pitch and depth can be adjusted; it has two functions of producing ring patterns and spiral patterns. The corrugating die is rolled on metal tube instead of purely sliding, so the wear is small, and the operating life can be long.

    3. Welding Machine

    Welding machine
    The welding machine is imported from Germany. DC welding power supply, with automatic forced air cooling, with main parameter display; welding current is stable and continuously adjustable, which can meet the stable welding function of large current. The success rate of arc starting is over 98%.

    4. Metal Tape Connector

    LT-JD600 argon arc welding tape connector can be used for horizontal joint welding of the metal sheath of the ultra-high voltage power cable. It is used to cut the two ends of the two clean metal tape accurately. After the opposite ends are cut through the transverse cuts, continuous butt joint welding is performed under the protection of inert gas, and the two metal strips are connected horizontally to ensure the continuous production.
    The equipment is mainly composed of a belt cutting unit, a fixed tooling unit with a head, a walking transmission unit for a welding gun, a movable working platform, an electronic control system, etc. The width of tape can be up to (200~700) mm, the thickness of tape can be up to aluminum tape (0.80~4.0) mm, copper tape (0.30~1.5) mm, and steel tape (0.30~1.0) mm. The welding speed can be continuously adjusted within (0~1.40) m / min.
    LT-JD600 type argon arc welding tape connector has characteristics of flat metal notch, firm welding and convenient operation. In addition, our company can also provide other models of argon arc welding tape connectors according to customer requirements to meet the different needs.

    Auxiliary Equipment

    In order to ensure the reliability of cable metal sheath production, corresponding auxiliary equipment is needed to ensure the reliable, stable and efficient production of the entire cable metal sheath. Among them, the eddy current flaw detector is one of the very important auxiliary equipment.
    The eddy current flaw detector can detect the weld seam of welded pipes of different specifications and materials on-line, and can effectively identify the defects of welded pipe cracking, under-welding and cracks. The device is controlled by computer, man-machine interface, display working status, and the maximum flaw detection speed can reach 10m / s. In addition, the device can also replace the hydraulic test of the metal sheath to mark the defective area.
    The eddy current flaw detector from us has the characteristics of fast detection speed, high sensitivity, strong anti-interference ability, stable performance, low cost, etc. It is especially suitable for online eddy current flaw detection on ultra-high voltage power cable metal sheath production line.
