What does a wire drawing machine do?

A wire drawing machine is an industrial device used to reduce the diameter of a metal wire by pulling it through a series of drawing dies or molds. This process is called wire drawing, and it helps transform thicker wire rods into thinner, longer wires while improving their surface finish, strength, and mechanical properties.

A wire drawing machine is defined as a key equipment used in the production of continuous basalt fibers (CBF), which influences the diameter and quality of the fiber. It typically features an automatic barrel-changing mechanism that enhances operational stability and achieves a wire-drawing yield of over 95%.

What Materials Can Be Drawn?

• Copper – for electrical wires and cables

• Aluminum – for lightweight electrical and mechanical uses

• Steel – for construction wire, nails, springs, and fasteners

• Stainless steel – for medical and industrial applications

• Brass, silver, titanium, and other specialty alloys
