Wire Processing Centre (WPC)

Wire Processing Centre (WPC)

The WPC is an integrated solution for preparing individual wires in the cross-section range from 0.5 mm² to 2.5 mm². The WPC processes all orders from EPLAN or another CAE system step by step. The inserted wire is sequentially cut to length using the Z+F EVOFEED® multiple feeder. Markers are printed and the correct ferrule is crimped with the universal UNIC-GV crimping machine. The thermal transfer printer (THM-MMP) is suitable for all markers and labels of the MultiMark family as well as for endless material, fabric and polyester labels, shrink sleeves or SPS labels.
The manual operation of the individual steps enables the operator to lay and connect the wires for the complete job step by step. It is not necessary to change wires and ferrules due to the high degree of automation. The WPC can thus be optimally integrated into production processes.

The WPC is an integrated solution to produce wires for switch cabinets: it marks them and crimps the corresponding wire end ferrule. The WPC loads an EPLAN or other CAE file and produces all wires within this list step by step. Cross-sections from 0.5 mm² to 2.5 mm² can be processed. For each item in this list, the wire is cut to length sequentially with the help of the multi feeder Z+F EVOFEED®. The corresponding labels are printed and the correct ferrule is crimped to the wire with the UNIC-GV universal crimping machine. The thermal transfer printer (THM-MMP) is suitable for all markers and labels of the MultiMark family as well as for continuous material, fabric and polyester labels, heat shrink tubing or PLC labels.

The operation of the individual steps is carried out manually, which allows the operator to route and connect the wires for the complete job in the switch cabinet wire by wire. Due to the high level of automation it is not necessary to change wires and ferrules.
