Shaped dies are used in both drawing and extrusion machines.
Since 1982,Transmo started to custom design a seried of dies to make the required shape and tolerance from original shape gradually.
Blanks(Nibs) material
The shaped dies can be made with tool steels, tungsten carbide(TC) and polycrystalline diamond(PCD)
Case material
Stainless steel and cold rolled steel.
Typical wire shapes
Square
Rectangular
Flat
Triangular
Hexagonal
Oval
Half round
Rhombus
Trolley wire
Spiral wire
Applications
For nonferrous metals wire, such as copper and aluminum, is best drawn with
polycrystalline diamond dies (PCD) ,Not only maintain high wear resistance, but also get a good wire surface quality.
For steel wire, tungsten carbide dies is better,if need variety production,low cost,sample wire making or other applications.Typical MarketsAluminum wire, copper wire, stainless steel wire,steel wire, spiral wire and Trolley wire
Spiral steel wire dies
Transmo Dies can design and manufacture TC spiral dies for drawing spiral steel wire.
