MACHINE INFORMATION

Overview & Key Features

Interlocking Metal Armor for Specialized Cables

The Interlocking Armor Machine is designed to form aluminum alloy or stainless steel strip into an interlocked protective layer around power cables, control cables and submersible pump cables. It supports round cable cores and selected flat single-core cable structures.

The machine uses active strip feeding and one-step forming with adjustable pneumatic friction tension. A zero-backlash flexible transmission supports consistent armor formation, while PLC and touchscreen control coordinate machine operation. Model, strip dimensions, cable passage range and armoring pitch can be selected according to the required cable construction.

Key Features

Proportional-valve strip tension adjustment
Pneumatic emergency strip reel braking
Zero-backlash flexible transmission system
Active strip feeding and forming
Fully enclosed protective housing
Strip-break alarm and cutoff protection
PLC and touchscreen coordinated control
