ABSTRACT:
A method of producing sheathed cables and/or transducers such as wire strain gauges, temperature probes and so on. Such cables comprise an outer tubular casing and one or more electrically conductive leads embedded in insulating material. Production begins on a flat strip which is bent by means of a female mold into a tubular shape with an approximately circular cross-section, whereby the free edges of this blank are bent back so as to form radially protruding flanges. The leads are inserted into this preformed tubular casing and the spaces are filled with insulating material in powder form. The diameter of the tube is reduced and the density of the inserted insulating material is increased by pulling on the flanges in a specially designed abutment. After the desired density is attained, the flange is cut off and the free edges are welded together. The method is preferably carried out continuously and is not only well suited for the production of sheathed cables, but also especially for the production of transducers of diverse kinds and combinations thereof in one and the same tubular casing.
