Cable Outer Sheath Extrusion Line

Extrude the protective outer jacket over a formed cable core. Match a PVC/PE sheathing line to your incoming cable, jacket thickness and finished diameter. Review the extruder together with cooling, haul-off and drum handling.

Position in your production line

LAN cable application. Outer sheathing receives the core from LAN cable-core assembly. Confirm the incoming diameter, jacket compound, wall thickness, finished diameter and take-up package, then match the accepted cable to the required coiling and packaging arrangement. Review the complete LAN production route; material-specific processing and the working output require project confirmation.

01Formed cable coreFeed the laid-up or otherwise prepared cable core from the agreed drum arrangement.
02Outer jacket extrusionApply the selected sheath compound and thickness through suitable tooling.
03Cooling and take-upCool the jacket and collect the finished cable, including required marking or measurement.

Screw diameter Φ70 mm Φ80 mm Φ90 mm
Catalog extrusion capacity 140 kg/h 200 kg/h 250 kg/h

Catalog extrusion capacity is a mass-output reference, not cable line speed. Practical output depends on the compound, jacket section and complete line configuration.

Select around your actual product

01 / SELECTION

Incoming cable

Supply the cable cross-section, construction and minimum/maximum incoming diameter.

02 / SELECTION

Jacket specification

State PVC or PE grade, wall thickness, final diameter, tolerance and colour/layer requirements.

03 / SELECTION

Output requirement

Provide the intended cable sizes and working speed. Compare extrusion capacity with the material demand of those constructions.

04 / SELECTION

Drums and cooling

Confirm reel dimensions and weights, haul-off requirements, available cooling length and site utilities.

05

Define what your quotation includes

  • Extruder, screw and selected PVC/PE processing arrangement.
  • Crosshead, dies and agreed colour or layer options.
  • Pay-off, cooling, haul-off and take-up.
  • Printing, measurement and other specified line functions.

State whether this is a new line, an additional machine or an upgrade. Include existing equipment interfaces so the offer covers the connections that matter.

Questions before choosing this machine

Does 250 kg/h mean a guaranteed cable speed?

No. Mass output and line speed are different quantities. The jacket cross-section, compound and operating conditions are needed to establish a production point.

Can this replace core-wire insulation extrusion?

Outer sheathing and conductor insulation are different duties. Use the incoming construction and wall requirements to select the correct extrusion route.

What does a complete sheathing offer include?

Confirm extrusion equipment and tooling together with pay-off, cooling, haul-off, take-up and the marking or measurement functions you require.
