Founded
by technocrats committed to innovation, it is a strong technology
driven group with development of world class products solely through
in-house R & D efforts.
Through this continuous and ongoing effort of our development team, several New Products were developed indigenously in India, for the first time without any help in terms of know-how or technology from an external Laboratory or Collaborator. Some of these have eventually been launched commercially and have received overwhelming market response. |

AFW'S CONTRIBUTION & FORAYS IN HIGH-TECH AREAS: FIRE
SURVIVAL CABLES |
|
| FIRE SURVIVAL CABLES : | |
| AFW Group developed Fire Survival Cables meeting stringent test requirements of IEC:331 and DGS:211. These are possibly the only indigenously made Fire Survival Cables approved by Tariff Advisory Committee (equivalent of UL/FM in India) | |
| EXTRUDED FLUOROPOLYMER CABLES : Top | |
|
Teflon
happens to be a very difficult substance for extrusion due to its
very high melt viscosity. AFW has developed the technology of extruding
Teflon indigenously and launched the complete range of Extruded
Teflon Cables, in place of the existing taped and sintered Teflon
Cables
|
|
| HEAT TRACING SYSTEMS & SOLUTIONS : Top | |
| The breakthrough in extrusion of Teflon resulted into AFW launching Electrical Heat Tracing Systems, which are approved by all major authorities including CCE-Nagpur and CMRI-Dhanbad. | |
| ENERGY PULSE TRANSMISSION CABLES - NUCLEAR PLANTS : Top | |
| AFW has successfully developed and supplied 50 KV Plasma Discharge Pulse Cables for some of the country's highly advanced Nuclear Research Projects through Department of Atomic Energy (BARC). | |
| RF COAXIAL CABLES : Top | |
| AFW,
through its in-house R&D efforts, have developed a range of Coaxial
Radio Frequency Cables as per Uni-Radio, RG and Defence standards.
These are approved by the industry and important users, including
Defence Ministry. AFW has complete in-house laboratory and testing facilities for RF Cables for frequencies right upto 1 GHz. |

SOLUTIONS : Top (FOR DESIGN, SIMULATION & ESTIMATION OF COMPLEX INSTRUMENTATION CABLES) |

AFW
today is one of the few companies in Cable Industry to have developed
an end-to-end software solution for design, parameter-simulation
& estimation of highly complex & customised cable requirements
as per consultant & other specifications which effectively overcomes
the complexities in this line due to inputs being gravimetric while
the outputs are volumetric. This gets further complicated due to
each customer/consultant having their own specifications with literally
hundreds of sizes/types of cables.
The whole system is akeen to an Expert System which can intelligently respond to customised cable specifications, which is further interfaced to an ERP-like package. This
offers not only high degree of accuracy and speed in responding
to complex requirements but also keeps the technical processing
of enquiries sterile from human interference/errors right through
the entire processing cycle from receipt of enquiry to order processing,
material planning, shop processing till the final despatch &
billing. |
