Abstract

Providing an insulation layer upon electrical conductor by passing the conductor with clearance towards and through an outlet orifice of a die insert as the conductor approaches a die orifice. The degree of concentricity of the conductor within the insulation layer is monitored after extrusion and an eccentrically positioned conductor is moved towards a concentric location by moving the conductor, at a position upstream of the outlet orifice of the die insert, laterally of the feedpath. This movement effects a change in approach of the conductor to the outlet orifice and influences a change in the angle of departure from the outlet orifice thereby altering the lateral position of the conductor within the die orifice.
