Measuring the Temperature of Liquid Metal in Steelworks and Foundries
Thermal stress in measuring the temperature of liquid metal is extremely high, so the service life of hand lance cables is very short. In dialog with the process users, we have developed special cable solutions for this application in order to optimize service life. We also offer solutions for less extreme temperature stress areas that…
Measuring the Temperature of Liquid Metal in Steelworks and Foundries
The use of cables and wires in industry is especially challenging – especially as the degree of automation and networking of industrial equipment is increasing in parallel to the extreme conditions. If network technology requires a temperature-proof cable, ALMI CAT 5 and CAT 6 cables are currently used. ALMI has now expanded this spectrum of…
ALMI on the Road at METEC and GIFA
June 2015: The quartet of international metallurgy trade shows in Dusseldorf also offered plenty of opportunities to make contacts and obtain information on new developments for the special cable company Alfred Michels from Mülheim. Head of Sales, Andreas Mettner (photo), used the 4-day industry expo for intensive sales meetings. “Just the right people in one…
ALMI HIGHFLAME cable in constant operation up to +1,200°C
Electrical cables are exposed to extreme process conditions in the steel industry, in foundries and in metallurgy: fire and flying sparks, radiation heat and drastic temperature changes make for challenging requirements when it comes to the durability of cables and heat protection applications. The choice of suitable cables and protective equipment always has a long-term…
Optimized Caps Protect Motors and Connectors
Optimized caps protect motors and connectors. Motors and connectors are often exposed to extreme conditions, such as spraying water, ignition dust, oil or fat, in industrial production. The standard protection is metal caps, which come with plenty of downsides: Costly installation and removal Risk of injury Heat up Possibly let water through Risk of corrosion…
