Insulated wire manufacturing process goes through number of phases before yielding a desired quality of insulated wire. The first phase of wire manufacturing is the controlling of PVC- temperature to make it free from the moisture. In this paper, we describe the estimation of first order Transfer Function (TF) with dead time for the PVC placed in the tray of Electric Oven (EO). The TF is estimated using the real time measured response of PVC temperature in EO for the applied step change in power to EO and with the help of MATLAB. The estimated TF was verified by making simulation model for it in MATLAB and comparing the simulated result with measured data. The time domain response of estimated TF shows closely represents the real time behavior of PVC temperature in EO.
