Quartz glass tube welding crucibles used for automotive cable conductor welding

Conductor Welding Consumables for Automotive Cable

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

Industry Pain Points

What Goes Wrong on These Lines

  • Fine stranded conductor catches on a rough ceramic bore
  • An opaque crucible hides whether the strand ends are aligned
  • A failed joint downstream costs a full extrusion restart
  • Tensile after welding has to be validated, not assumed
From the Data

What the Published Figures Say

The published 28 AWG validation records 7/0.127 mm construction at 200 N/mm² minimum tensile, 23.52 N breaking force before welding and 19.6 N after, translated to 220 N/mm² — recorded as OK. The manufacturer states the product has been rated the best by Japanese car cable companies for 3 years.

Automotive Wiring Harness Questions

Which SGT products suit automotive wiring harness

The categories listed on this page: Quartz Glass Tubes, Conductor Butt Welding Machines. Each one links to the full product list with the published capacities.

How is a machine matched to our line

By the wire. Give the material, the smallest and largest diameter run, whether the section is round or rectangular, and the electrical supply. The machine model, the die set and the voltage build follow from those four answers.

Do you supply the consumables as well as the machines

Yes. Welding dies from 0.10 mm to 25.0 mm, drawing dies in tungsten carbide, PCD and nano diamond coating, extrusion dies and tips, and quartz glass welding crucibles are all made in house.

What lead time and packing should we expect

Packing is stated per model — a strong wooden or plywood case for the machines, carry cases for the portable welders. Lead time is quoted per order. TBC
