Optimising connections

Published:  21 January, 2016

Carbolite.JPGNaim Audio, a leading specialist in high-end hi-fi equipment, says it has installed a CARBOLITE GP oven to provide precisely controlled heat-treatment procedures on the cables used in its systems.

The Carbolite GP330B oven allows up to 60 metres of cable to be processed at a time in order to cure the insulation and make it more supple and durable. The procedure typically involves heating the oven at a pre-set rate, holding at temperature for several hours and then cooling to ambient. The controller fitted allows up to 20 segments to be pre-set as ramp, step or dwell and also enables operators to store the most frequently used programs. Overall oven construction is designed to provide long-term durability in a production environment.

  • Customised blast cabinet 

    From mobile phones to vehicle bodies, most products and equipment undergo vibration testing as part of their development or quality assessment. One of the leading companies specialising in vibration test system repair and maintenance has installed a customised blast cabinet from HODGE CLEMCO to upgrade its services. Repair and rewinding of the electric coils in vibration equipment is a key service offered by Cambridgeshire-based 1G Dynamics and involves stripping existing copper wiring off the aluminium armatures along with any aluminium tube used for cooling the equipment. Before being rewound, the surface of the armature and cooling tube are prepared to provide a key for the final resin coating.

  • How to be cool 

    Improving the efficiency of electrical conversion and new methods of thermal management may mean that in future motors run far cooler than they do today. But until then, heat dissipation remains a major consideration for designers of motor-driven systems. Bill Bertram, of motor maker Marathon Electric, looks at the state of the art and casts one eye into his crystal ball.

  • Flexible cooling  

    Reynolds, a leading supplier of fresh fruit and vegetables, reports it has partnered with temperature control and mobile power specialist AGGREKO to provide additional cooling capacity for its vegetable packing lines during the warmer summer months. Because temperature integrity is critical to Reynolds, it wanted a cooling package capable of delivering a stable 4-5 °C across one of the packing lines, in order to help maximise the freshness of its produce.
