Uralcable has put in operation a new Italian extrusion line valued at 51.4 million rubles (750 thousand euro).
The capacity of the new line is 10 times higher compared to the old one, which has been disassembled.
“The speed of the Frigeco line is 800 meters per minute. Our old line could not do more than 100 meters per minute”, the company chief technological engineer Olga Ivanova reported.
The old extruder could process three types of materials, and the new one – twice as much.
“The new equipment will allow us to improve the quality of our products and increase cable output 5-6-fold”, the company director Alexei Zhuzhin noted. (Ukrainian metal)
