Radyne In-Line Aluminum Induction Annealing Systems

Market demand for Electrical Grade Aluminum Wire is driving manufacturers to look for in-line annealing solutions that deliver the elongation and conductivity required for ACSR and ACSS High Tension Wire.

Induction heating is now the accepted technology for any high speed processing line.

Radyne specializes in designing both dull and bright annealing systems for a wide variety of wire from copper, through stainless steels.

Aluminum annealing can be accomplished at high speeds systems can be deployed to anneal aluminum cables. Care must be taken to apply the right coil configurations and frequencies when annealing ACSR High Tension cables.

The annealing system using induction heating technology offers any Aluminum wire or rod manufacturer the opportunity of incorporating it into existing lines or specifying it for new lines.  One has only to look at the development of high speed copper wire and rod annealing lines by Radyne to see where it can go. These lines now operate at speeds up to 2000 ft./minute / 600 metres /minute.
