Alpha 488 S – Economical processing of twisted pairs

Introduction

Alpha 488 S produces fully automatically Twisted-Pairs out of two single bulk wires completely cut-to-length and terminated, with all quality controls included. The modular composition of the system provides superb flexibility. Four processing stations at the wire beginning and two at the wire end offer extensive processing possibilities.

Key features:

  • Complete processing of two single bulk wires into twisted pairs with processed ends
  • Fully automatic twister featuring well-proven as well as innovative quality monitoring systems (DLA, TFA, SPM, CFA/CFA+ etc.) for maximum process control
  • Gentle and precise wire handling for the best quality of the final product
  • Highly reliable and proven TopWin graphical user interface on touch screen for efficient machine use
  • Simplified machine design for the greatest ease of operation and maintenance
  • Networking possibilities with reliable WPCS and KomaxCAO
  • Excellent value for the money for the economical production of Twisted-Pairs

Function

Highest flexibility

The machine layout accommodates up to six processing stations. Wires with cross sections ranging from 2×0.13mm2 (AWG26) to 2×2.5mm2 (AWG14) may be processed in the highest quality.
The system can also be used for the processing of two untwisted isometric single wires. Alpha488S is available in the versions of four, seven and ten meters.
In combination with the Komax crimping modules mci 722 or mci 712 and the Komax seals module mci 765 C as well as with the quick-change systems and the integrated quality monitoring systems
Alpha 488 S ensures maximum process reliability and extremely short changeover times.

Outstanding user-friendliness

The system is characterized by a remarkable user-friendliness. Accessibility to all stations is optimal due to a large swivel radius and an upwards opening protection cover.
In addition, long and fold-up wing-doors allow the operator an excellent and quick access to the upper wire deposit tray as well as to the twisting area.
A pivoting operator console allows an improved machine operation, since the wire deposit tray is freely accessible at all times.
The touch screen which combines visual output and data input in the same spot, also contributes to a more efficient operation of the machine. It is included in the standard configuration.
The graphical user interface is based on the well-proven TopWin and allows the easiest control of the Alpha 488 S.
The compact design of the wire feed-in unit provides central and fast access to daily used guiding parts and tools.

Maximal ease of maintenance

Thanks to a sophisticated, highly innovative, wireless electrical transmission system - ICS (Inductive Communication System) in combination with an autonomous air-pressure storage system allows the suppression of the drag chain at the wire-puller
carriage. The highly simplified guiding concept for the linear carriages, the compact deposit cells and some automated adjustments greatly simplify the installation and maintenance of the system.
A single control cabinet and the simplified hardware architecture further facilitate the maintenance work.

Technology

The twisting head with AC servo-drive is the heart of Alpha 488 S and delivers the required dynamics. The integrated Twist Force Analyzer (TFA) monitors the forces during twisting and regulates the subsequent adjustment movements of the twisting head.That ensures a steady and ultra-precise twisting.
The linear wire-puller with integrated Delta Length Analyzer (DLA) ensures that wires are drawn-in gently and with great accuracy of length. The high output of the system results from the parallel processing of two wires and the division of the overall processing cycle into three perfectly synchronized main processes.
A further central element of the Alpha 488 S is the transfer bridge with motorized axes. It allows wires to be handled gentler and more precise than ever while enabling the automation of some adjustment procedures.
