In modern cable fire safety testing, the Single Cable Vertical Flame Test Machine has become an essential device to ensure that cable products meet safety standards and project quality requirements. By applying standardized flames and recording burning time, flame propagation length, and self-extinguishing characteristics, this machine accurately evaluates the flame-retardant performance of individual wires and cables. Compared with traditional bundled cable flame tests, single cable vertical testing provides higher data independence and testing specificity, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring stringent flame resistance, such as building construction, rail transit, and data centers.
The Single Cable Vertical Flame Test Machine is equipped with a high-precision combustion system and an automatic control module, enabling automatic ignition, air flow adjustment, and precise recording of burning times. It strictly complies with the IEC 60332-1-1 international standard. Featuring a compact structure and small footprint, it is ideal for both laboratory R&D testing and production line quality inspections, greatly improving testing efficiency and data consistency. The machine also supports standard sample mounting and airflow protection systems, ensuring stable combustion conditions and reproducible test results.
As global building, rail transportation, and telecommunication sectors impose higher requirements on cable flame resistance, the Single Cable Vertical Flame Test Machine is expected to play an increasingly critical role in cable manufacturing, engineering acceptance, and quality assurance, helping companies enhance product safety levels and strengthen market competitiveness.
