Production line configuration

Solar Cable Production Line

Match conductor preparation, bunching, insulation and sheathing equipment to your photovoltaic cable construction and compound system.

Solar CableApplication illustration

Define the cable you want to produce

Conductor cross-section, strand construction, insulation and sheath compounds, layer structure and output requirements.

Fine wires → bunched conductor → insulation → sheath → finishing

Indicative process route; confirm against your cable drawing.

Selection priority

Conductor construction and material system

Choose where your production begins

Separate conductor-making investment from the insulation, sheath and compound-treatment scope. A solar-cable label alone does not define the material process.

Compare the construction choices

A different cable structure can change machines, tooling and supply responsibilities. Compare these choices before agreeing the equipment list.

One conductor size or a production range

Match the buncher, pay-off, extrusion and take-up to the smallest and largest constructions.

What changes

A broad range can increase tooling and changeovers; a maximum cross-section does not establish fine-strand compatibility.

Confirm before selection

Supply individual wire diameters, strand count, area, finished dimensions and the expected product mix.

Separate insulation and sheath layers

Layer thicknesses and compound grades determine the extrusion duties and interfaces between them.

What changes

Different compounds or layer arrangements may need different processing setups. Do not assume one head covers every construction.

Confirm before selection

Confirm the cable drawing, compound supplier processing instructions and the layer application sequence.

Treatment in-house or through a partner

Any required cross-linking or other treatment needs its own equipment, handling and responsibility review.

What changes

External treatment reduces on-site process scope but introduces transport, intermediate stock and traceability requirements.

Confirm before selection

Identify the actual treatment method, service responsibility, transfer package and post-treatment acceptance checks.

Explore the equipment for this cable

Open an equipment family to compare machine types and reference specifications.

Agree the output, site and acceptance basis

A connected line needs a common specification at every handover. Use these points to test whether the proposed scope is complete.

Production target

Capacity after every required process

Compare saleable cable output after insulation, sheathing and any required material treatment.

Review the planning details

If treatment is off-site or off-line, include its batch size, transfer time and availability in the production plan.

Factory interfaces

Material and reel handling

Separate the compound storage and preparation requirements from the conductor-reel area.

Review the planning details

Use the actual material supplier instructions to define preparation needs, then coordinate cooling, take-up and intermediate cable storage.

Acceptance plan

Trial and acceptance

Use the specified conductor and both compound grades in the trial plan.

Review the planning details

Agree dimensional, processing and finished-cable tests, including any tests after material treatment. Supplying equipment does not establish product certification.

Put responsibilities in writing

Identify who provides trial materials, utilities, reels, testing and any external process. Agree how results will be recorded and what must be resolved before acceptance.

Compare investment on the same scope

A useful budget separates the machines from plant preparation, external processing and start-up requirements. No standard package price can replace a defined cable specification.

Catalogue photovoltaic cable extrusion equipment

Use the catalogue as a starting point

The catalogue includes photovoltaic cable extrusion equipment and a separate conductor-formation range, allowing these process duties to be reviewed together.

The photograph establishes the equipment category. Compound compatibility, treatment scope, configured output and product certification require separate evidence.

Prepare your line-planning requirements

Conductor specification

Cross-section, strand structure and material condition guide conductor equipment.

Insulation and sheath

Provide actual compound grades and layer dimensions for technical review.

Material-specific treatment

Confirm whether additional processing is required and included in the project scope.

Production range

Plan around the intended size range and expected product changes.

Application questions

Does selecting a solar cable line certify the cable?

No. Equipment selection and cable certification are separate. Product requirements, materials, validation and the applicable testing route must be defined for the project.

Can both conductor and extrusion stages be planned?

Yes. PINYANG’s range covers conductor preparation, bunching, extrusion and supporting equipment, allowing these stages to be discussed together.

What defines the extrusion configuration?

The material system, layer structure, dimensions and required production range are the main inputs.

Is cross-linking automatically included with solar cable extrusion?

No. The selected compound determines the required process, and the proposal must identify whether treatment is in-house, externally supplied or outside the equipment order. Include the handling and validation steps that follow it.

Can we add more conductor sizes after starting production?

Review the new strand construction and every size limit from bunching to take-up. Existing equipment may be reusable, require tooling or configuration changes, or fall outside its intended range. Provide drawings of the current and proposed products.
