Frequently Asked Questions about used Wire and Cable Machinery
What is wire and cable machinery and what is it used for?
Wire and cable machinery straightens, cuts, bends, coils, braids, crimps or over-moulds wire and cable. It is used in spring making, cable assembly, the electrical and automotive supply industry and general mechanical engineering. Common manufacturers on the used market include WAFIOS, BIHLER and MACSOFT.
How do I choose the right wire and cable machine for my parts?
The key factors are wire or cable diameter, material, required cycle time, the bending and tooling concept and the control system. Tool changeover times and the range of parts the machine will run later should also be clarified in advance. Asset-Trade appraises your requirement free of charge and matches it against available used machines.
How much does a used wire and cable machine cost?
The price depends on year of manufacture, diameter range, equipment, tooling set and overall condition. Used machines typically cost 40 to 70 percent less than a comparable new machine. Asset-Trade provides a free appraisal and a quotation based on the specific machine on offer.
How is the condition of a used wire and cable machine checked?
Each machine goes through a multi-stage inspection with functional tests covering feed units, straightening and bending assemblies, spindles, control system and safety devices. A visit on site with a trial run and a demonstration on your own part is also possible. This makes wear on tooling and mechanics easier to judge before purchase.
How do shipping, export and commissioning of wire and cable machinery work?
Asset-Trade handles worldwide shipping and export, including loading, transport documentation and customs formalities. A dedicated project manager guides you through the entire 7-step purchase process from enquiry to handover. On request, operators are trained on site in operation, setup and tool changes.
What are typical mistakes buyers make with used wire and cable machinery?
Frequent mistakes include focusing on wire diameter alone, buying without a complete tooling set, accepting an undocumented control version and skipping a trial run. Spare part and tooling availability is also often checked too late. If you are unsure, you can have the machine inspected on site and use Asset-Trade's free appraisal before deciding between a used, new or alternative machine.
