Overview of wire twisting
There are probably as many wire twisting devices as there are cable types but, as with all manufacturing, consistency is the key to quality and this is where BÖWE Elektrik can help.
The BAV 1016 wire twisting system is a fast, simple and intelligent machine that will produce cables with exactly the same number of twists under the same tension every time, whether it is made from two or five wires up to 2m in length (4m option available).
With a memory that allows you to store up to 999 cable definitions (programs) once the wire twisting system is set up the operator skill required is minimal making this ideal for high volume or low volume/high mix manufacturing.
Minimal maintenance and fast operation help ensure a fast payback and ongoing returns on what is a relatively modest investment.
