Cable Molds
We design and machine in-house two different types of molds that are used in our CV machines. Molds are machined from 6061 aluminum using CNC machining equipment. All CV molds are fitted with hardened pins and bushings for alignment of the top and bottom halves of the mold.
Splicing molds are used to join two cables together or repair damaged wires within a multi-conductor cable. These molds open up to a larger diameter in the center of the mold to accommodate the extra space required for the splice.
Repair molds are used to repair damaged outer jacket only. Repair molds have the same diameter of the cable being repaired all the way through the mold. To learn more, email us today at info@minedoor.com, or call to speak to one of our experienced engineers at 216-432-3240.
