Precautions for preventing wire breakage when using wire drawing dies

2025 02/17

In the process of using wire drawing molds for production, particularly Natural Diamond Wire Drawing Dies, SMCD Wire Drawing Dies, and Tungsten Carbide Dies, the diameter of the processed wire is usually very small, and some are even thinner than human hair. So if you don't pay attention, a disconnection or breakage may occur. In order to reduce the occurrence of this situation, it is necessary to have a certain understanding of the factors and solutions for wire breakage. Now, following in the footsteps of the wire drawing mold editor, let's explore together how to prevent wire breakage when utilizing these types of molds.
 
The entire set of wire drawing molds, whether Natural Diamond, SMCD, or Tungsten Carbide, must be properly matched before processing. If the matching ratio of the drawing die sizes does not meet the standard, the steel wire will break. According to the specifications and thickness of the finished products on the production line, they can be flexibly configured, and the normal compression ratio should be selected to ensure normal operation.
The entire series of molds, regardless of their material—Natural Diamond, SMCD, or Tungsten Carbide—should be arranged sequentially from the outgoing mold. If the demolding sequence is incorrect, or if the connection between the front and rear turbines is misaligned, or if the connection between the rear turbine and the fixed-speed turbine is incorrect, it will lead to wire breakage.
If the size of the mold installed on the machine is incorrect, it may cause wire breakage. An incorrect mold size will disrupt the normal compression ratio, resulting in wire failure. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that the mold size is accurate and appropriate for the specific application.
By paying attention to these details and understanding the specific requirements of each type of wire drawing die—whether Natural Diamond, SMCD, or Tungsten Carbide—you can significantly reduce the likelihood of wire breakage and ensure smooth production processes.
