 An
important signing commemorating the 300th CV line ordered, took
place between Maillefer SA and Energya Industries during the Interbuild
show in Cairo, Egypt on June 24, 2007. Hesham H. El Sewedy, CEO
of Energya Industries, and Pentti Hätälä, CEO of
Maillefer SA, took up the pen dedicated for the event. A handshake
sealed the deal between the two men.
The order received represents the 300th complete
CV line sold in the history of Maillefer. Manufacturing is underway
on the equipment, which is scheduled to ship from the company's
Finnish facility during the later part of this year. Energya  Industries
has earmarked the new Continuous Vulcanization (CV) line for its
Jeddah Cable plant in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Building preparations
and tower construction are underway to accommodate the line, which
measures around 115 m high.
The CV line ordered is a vertical tower model
destined to the production of high-voltage and extra high-voltage
insulated cables of up to 500 kV and a cross-section of 3000 mm2.
It incorporates unique technology for quality production, which
is characterized by cable roundness and homogeneity across all
insulation and semi-conductor layers. Maillefer CV lines are designed
as best in class for manufacturing energy cables that offer long-term
reliability in the field. An option was signed to deliver an identical
line to the Energya Cables operations in Egypt where major expansions
are underway to increase capacity and expand the product range
of Energy Cables.
Maillefer has been a privileged partner to Energya
Industries and, in particular, Jeddah Cable Company for over 20
years. JCC is a leading manufacturer of a complete range of Cable
products in the ME&A Region with the most recent & most
modern manufacturing processes in the region. A large majority
of cable manufacturing equipment installed originates from Maillefer.
The 300th CV line once again confirms the high level of confidence
that both partners place in each other.
