SGT DA10 desk cold pressure welding machine for 0.10-0.50 mm copper wire
Cold Pressure Welding Since 1995

Join Copper and Aluminium Wire Without Heat Flux or Filler

SGT cold welders make a solid-phase joint as strong as the parent wire and with the same electrical characteristics — in a cycle that takes seconds and needs no operator training.

What We Make

Four Things a Wire Plant Needs on the Same Shop Floor

SGT has manufactured cold pressure welding equipment in Shunde, Foshan for 30 years. The range covers four things a wire plant needs on the same shop floor: machines that join non-ferrous wire without heat, the dies those machines close onto, drawing and extrusion tooling for the lines downstream, and the butt welders and quartz crucibles used for stranded conductor and cable.

What Problem We Solve

Downtime Is the Cost Not the Joint

Every product in the range exists because something on a wire line stops, and stopping is what costs money.

A Broken Wire Stops the Whole Line

One break on a drawing block or an extrusion line means scrap conductor, a restart and lost hours. A cold weld takes seconds, needs no power at the machine for the portable models and produces a joint that will pull through the next die.

Heat Welding Changes the Metal

Brazing and resistance welding anneal the wire and leave an oxide and a heat-affected zone. Cold pressure welding is solid-phase: no heat, no flux, no filler, and the joint keeps the conductivity of the parent wire.

Copper to Aluminium Will Not Braze

Transformer and winding shops need aluminium windings terminated in copper. Cold welding joins dissimilar non-ferrous metals directly, and special dies join two wires of different diameter.

Dies Wear Out Faster Than the Line Can Afford

Tungsten carbide is economical until the wear rate starts costing shifts. PCD dies last longer than carbide, natural and single-crystal diamond; nano diamond-coated dies run at least ten times longer than carbide on the same wire.

Who We Serve

Industries That Run SGT Equipment

The plants that buy cold welders are the ones where a metre of scrap conductor is the least expensive part of a break.

Wire and Cable Manufacturing

From rod breakdown to the extruder, every break is a restart. SGT supplies the welders, dies and crucibles that keep the length continuous.

What we supply
SGT PW10 portable cold welder for fine copper wire from 0.05 mm

Enamelled and Magnet Wire

Fine wire lines run at speed and break small. A hand welder at the block puts the line back under load in seconds.

What we supply
SGT CHY200-B hydraulic welder for rectangular strip and winding wire

Transformer and Motor Winding

Aluminium windings with copper terminations are a cold welding job — there is no braze that does it cleanly.

What we supply
Nano diamond coated drawing dies for wire drawing mills

Wire Drawing Mills

Point the wire, weld the break, draw through a die that holds its size. Three problems, one supplier.

What we supply
Quartz glass tube welding crucibles used for automotive cable conductor welding

Automotive Wiring Harness

Fine stranded automotive conductor is the hardest case for chamber welding, and the one where the crucible decides the result.

What we supply
SGT UN-25 electrical butt welding machine for steel wire

Nail Fastener and Wire Rope

Steel is outside cold welding. The UN series covers it, from 0.6 mm up to 4.5 mm on the largest frame.

Aluminium ranges run wider than copper across the programme because aluminium upsets at lower pressure. Rectangular sections are calculated from the cross-sectional area.

Solutions

Built Around the Line Not Around the Machine

Four workflows that cover what actually happens between a break and a running line again.

Solution

Continuous Drawing Without Breaks

A break is unavoidable. What is avoidable is threading the whole line again.
