Induction Heating Equipment for Copper Wire Stripping

Multi-strand CTC (Continuously Transposed Cable), an insulation-coated, copper wire used primarily in the production of large transformers, can be quickly stripped using Foster induction Ultrafast heat technology.

At a temperature of (600° C), the coating evaporates within seconds, making the process ideal for industrial applications such as the production of transformers or electrical machinery.

Prior to connection to the transformer, the ends of the wires must be stripped of this coating – a standard process that takes some time. This can be accomplished using a variety of traditional methods. However, sanding down the insulation is difficult if the wire has several layers, and a process using open flames carries certain health and safety risks.

Considering these factors, Foster induction heating is a quicker and safer alternative. In addition, heat is distributed evenly in the metal – regardless of the complexity of the wire’s winding – and causes fewer defects.
