Rigid frame stranding machines play a vital role in cable production. However, during long-term use, the performance of the equipment may be affected by various factors. In view of this situation, understanding and solving common faults has become the key to ensuring production efficiency and product quality. This article will introduce several common faults and their solutions to help manufacturers improve the stability of equipment operation, reduce downtime, and extend the service life of equipment.

1.Unstable stranding quality
Fault manifestation: During the stranding process, the quality of the cable is unstable, and the stranding is not tight or loose, which affects the performance of the product.

Solution: First, check the tension control system of the 撚り機 to ensure that the tension setting meets the requirements. Secondly, check the quality of the wire to ensure that there are no broken or damaged wires that affect the stranding effect. If the tension adjustment is ineffective, you may need to check whether the tension sensor or the reversing device is working properly. Clean and lubricate the stranding machine regularly to ensure the smooth operation of the parts.

2.The motor is overheated or not running
Fault manifestation: The motor heats up too quickly or cannot be started at all, causing the stranding machine to stop working.

Solution: Check the motor power supply and wiring to ensure that the power supply is stable and the motor wiring is not loose or short-circuited. If the motor is overheated, it may be due to excessive load or motor failure. You need to reduce the load or replace the damaged motor parts. At the same time, ensure that the motor cooling system is effective to avoid damage to the motor due to poor heat dissipation.

3.Uneven or unstable tension
Fault manifestation: During the twisting process, the tension fluctuates, resulting in uneven twisting of the cable or loosening of some wires.

Solution: First check the adjustment device of the tension control system to ensure that the tension regulator and sensor are working properly. If the problem persists, it may be due to damage or improper calibration of the tension sensor, which needs to be repaired or recalibrated. In addition, check the uniformity of the wire material to ensure that the diameter of each wire is consistent to avoid uneven tension.

4.Abnormal vibration of the frame
Fault manifestation: Abnormal vibration of the twisting machine during operation may cause excessive noise during the twisting process and even affect the stability of the equipment.

Solution: Check the various connection parts of the frame to ensure that there are no loose or deformed parts. If the vibration is caused by the long use of the equipment or excessive friction, you can consider repairing the frame or replacing parts. If necessary, adjust the support points and base of the frame to ensure the stable operation of the stranding machine.

5.Wire blockage or jamming
Fault manifestation: The wire is blocked or jammed during transmission, resulting in interruption of the stranding process.

Solution: Check the wire feeding system to ensure that the wire is not affected by excessive friction or obstacles. Clean the feed part of the stranding machine regularly to avoid dust and debris blocking the wire channel. If necessary, adjust or replace the feeding device of the equipment to ensure smooth transmission of the wire.
