Rosendahl Nextrom’s in-house technology center serves as a hub for research, development, and testing of new features and software. Additionally, it offers customers and partners the opportunity to conduct trials on the equipment.
As of the start of the year, Rosendahl Nextrom’s technology center, located at its headquarters in Austria, has been exclusively dedicated to datacom. Two new laboratory lines, one for loose tube production and another for Cat8 wire insulation, have been installed and are now available for test runs and trials:
New loose tube line delivers on all fronts
Equipped with numerous features aimed at enhancing quality and productivity, while at the same time reducing scrap, the latest generation loose tube line marks a significant advancement in fiber optical cable manufacturing. Noteworthy for its compact design, the line achieves speeds of up to 1,200 m/min. Visitors can experience firsthand the improved performance of an enhanced fiber cutter, optimized jelly-filling, a cable drying system for high speeds, and more.
