Abstract
The new recycling technology for aged Aluminum wires in overhead conductor have been carried out. We are attempting to develop remanufacturing method for them for more effective way of recycling in stead of its conventional remelting process. The weld of aged aluminum wires play a vital role in remanufacture process. The paper investigates the mechanical properties during cold welding process of aged Aluminum wire. The tensile tests and microscopic analysis results are discussed to underscore the hardening features of welded aluminum wire. Various graphs are presented accompanied by discussion about their relevance on the process.
