[0032] A strip injection inner eye mold 20 and a strip injection outer eye mold are located in said head 8, and a sizing flow channel 22 is located between strip injection inner eye mold 20 and strip injection outer eye mold.

[0033] Said strip injection inner eye mold 20 is tapered, and a copper wire transfer passage 23 is located in the middle part.

[0035] One end of said strip injection inner eye mold 20 is connected to said core regulating lead screw 6, and the coupling end is provided with screw thread.

[0036] The strip injection method of said two-color spiral strip injection machine based on PLC control comprises the following steps:

[0037] (1) Start, PLC control program is initialized;

[0038] (2) The PLC control program actuates the cast aluminum heating cylinder 5 and heating plate 17;

[0039] (3) Set the copper wire machine, when the temperature reaches working temperature, under the control of PLC, the copper wire is fed in the cast aluminum heating cylinder 5 through copper wire inlet 7 automatically;

[0040] (4) When the copper wire enters the cast aluminum heating cylinder 5, the sizing A is injected into the sizing inlet, meanwhile the sizing 8 is injected into the strip injection nozzle 11;

[0041] (5) When the sizing A and sizing B have entered the strip injection machine, they are molten at working temperature, and sizing B adheres to the surface of sizing A, forming two-color sizing;

[0042] (6) The transmission mechanism drives said outer eye mold to rotate, when the copper wire is being transported, the sizing adheres to copper wire helically, the sizing is cooled and solidified outside the outer eye mold, the two-color spiral strip injection line is obtained.

[0043] Said Step (1) includes PLC control program initialization, when the strip injection parameters are imported, whether the operation of various sensors is normal or not is checked automatically. If a sensor cannot work normally, an alarm is raised, and the PLC control box displays the location of the faulted sensor. The temperature control method of said PLC control program is:

[0044] (11) In the initial operation of equipment, the PLC control box exports 10A current via the heating cylinder power regulating plug and heating plate power regulating plug, so that the heating plate and heating cylinder are heated rapidly. When the temperature is 5 C. away from the preset working temperature, the heating cylinder power regulating plug and heating plate power regulating plug are controlled to export 7A current for slow heating. When the preset working temperature is reached, 5A current is exported for thermal insulation.

[0045] (12) In the operation of equipment at preset working temperature, if the present temperature detected by temperature sensor is lower than the preset working temperature by 15 C., the output current is regulated to 7A for heating. If current temperature is lower than the preset working temperature by over 5 C., the output current is regulated to 10A for heating.

[0046] (13) If the present temperature detected by temperature sensor is higher than the preset working temperature by 15 C., the output current is regulated to 2A for thermal insulation. If current temperature is higher than the preset working temperature by over 5 C., stop heating, when it is cooled to the preset working temperature, 5A current is supplied continuously for thermal insulation.

[0047] Said Step (2) includes regulating the core regulating lead screw 6 automatically and controlling the screw thread size according to the input parameters.

[0048] Said working temperature in Step (3) is 80120 C.

[0049] Said, sizing A and sizing B are homogeneous or heterogeneous sizing of different colors, and the sizing flow channel is larger than the strip injection channel. When the sizing A and sizing B are heterogeneous sizing, the product strength is enhanced or more artistic three-dimensional pattern is obtained.

[0050] Said Step (6) includes: the sizing A is in the strip injection inner eye mold 20, covering the external surface of copper wire under the pressure effect; meanwhile, the sizing B adheres to the surface of sizing A through the outer eye mold, forming screw thread on the surface of sizing A while the outer eye mold is rotating.
