CABLE MANUFACTURING PROCESS

From Approved Specification to Finished Cable Drum

The production route changes by cable family. Lulian Cable controls materials, conductor construction, insulation, cabling, sheath, testing, marking and packing against the approved order.

BEFORE PRODUCTION

Approve the Construction First

Production should not start from a short model name alone. The approved description defines the materials, dimensions, standard, marking and test requirements.

MODELCable family and rated voltage
CONDUCTORCopper or aluminum, class and size
MATERIALSInsulation, sheath and fire performance
PROTECTIONScreen, bedding and armor where required
IDENTIFICATIONCore colors, numbering and printed marking
ORDERLength, drum, tests and documents
PRODUCTION EVIDENCE

Key Stages in Cable Manufacturing

The exact sequence depends on whether the product is wire, power cable, control cable, armored cable or another construction.

Copper conductor processing on the Lulian Cable production line

01 · CONDUCTOR

Drawing and Conductor Preparation

Conductor material, wire diameter, strand construction and resistance are checked against the approved specification.

02 · STRANDING

Stranding and Cabling

Individual wires or insulated cores are assembled according to the required conductor class and cable design.

03 · INSULATION

Insulation and Material Processing

Material type, thickness, surface quality and in-process parameters are controlled for the ordered construction.

In-process spark testing during cable production

04 · IN-PROCESS TEST

Insulation Defect Screening

Applicable in-process checks help identify insulation defects before subsequent production stages.
