What are the reasons for the disconnection and glue breaking of the plastic layer of the wire and cable?

Dec 07, 2022

Wire and cable are wire products used to transmit electric energy, information and complete electromagnetic energy conversion. One or more insulated cores, and their respective possible covering layers, overall protective layer and outer sheath. The cable may also have additional uninsulated conductors.


When we use wires and cables, some problems may occur, such as disconnection or glue breaking. The editor has sorted out the causes and solutions of the occurrence:


Causes of production:


(1) There is water or oil in the conductive wire core


(2) The wire core is too heavy and partially contacts the mold core, causing the temperature to drop, causing the plastic to cool locally, and causing disconnection or glue breaking due to the stretching of the plastic.


(3) The quality of semi-finished products is poor, such as loose sets of steel belts and plastic belts, and joints that are not firm or too large.


Method of exclusion:


(1) The mold selection should be larger, especially the mold for the sheath, which should be enlarged by 6 to 8mm.


(2) Appropriately reduce the length and thickness of the core mouth.


(3) Reduce the speed of screw and traction.


(4) Properly increase the control temperature of the machine head.
