OPERATION DETAILS
• The wire rod to be drawn is pointed in the Wire Pointing Machine. This pointed wire is inserted through the
die of the first Wire Drawing Machine and fastened to a locking device on the drum. The drum is then
started, as the drum rotates, the wire fastened to the drum gets pulled and coiled around the drum. Since
the wire getting pulled is passed through the die having a higher inlet diameter and lower outlet diameter,
the drawn wire diameter gets reduced.
• The startling end of the drawn wire is released from the lock of the first drum and then it's passed trough
the overhead loop and pulley provided. It is brought down and is inserted through the die of the second
drum and drawn through this die for further reduction. Thus, the wire is drawn through all the wire
drawing drums of the set in a continuous manner to get the required finished diameter of the wire.
• When the drum of the last wire drawing machine gets fully loaded with the drawn wire, the machine will
be stopped to unload the finished material and then restarted. If one opts for the continuous coiling
machine, then the drawing process will not have to be stopped for this purpose.
• When the bundle of the input rod finishes, the machine should be stopped. The end of this bundle is
welded to the end of a new bundle rod using the butt welding machine. Then the process is to be
continued.
• Also, in case of an accidental snapping of wire in between drums, the snapped ends are welded with the
the help of the butt welding machine and the process is continued.
