Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method for fabrication of a conductor bar and to a use of a conductor tape with applied putty for the fabrication of a conductor bar. Described is a method for fabrication of a conductor bar including, applying a putty at one side of a conductor tape, applying a release foil at the other side of the putty opposed to the conductor tape, removing the release foil before applying the conductor tape to the narrow side of the conductor bar, providing a pressing mold with rounded edges at the inner side of the pressing mold, surrounding the conductor bar with putty and conductor tape with the pressing mold, and hot pressing the conductor bar with the pressing mold.
Claims8
A method for fabrication of a conductor bar, the method comprising;
- applying a putty at one side of a conductor tape;
- providing a pressing mould with rounded edges at the inner side of the pressing mould;
- applying the conductor tape with the applied putty directed to the conductor bar together on the conductor bar such that the putty and tape are applied to the conductor bar in one step with the putty in a non-hardened state;
- the conductor tape and applied putty placed longitudinally over top and bottom sides of the conductor bar so that the conductor tape extends over the top or bottom side and at least partially onto longitudinal sides of the conductor bar;
- applying the pressing mould to the conductor bar;
- hot pressing the conductor bar by means of the pressing mould;
- and
- removing the pressing mould.
