Effect of Drawing Processes on Wire Breaking in Steel Wire Production

Abstract:

Wire breaking is a major factor in the impact of wire drawing production, and drawing process is an important factor causing the wire breaking, which cannot be ignored. In this paper, the impact of tension, bending stresses, centrifugal stresses, compression ratio of die arrangement and drawing speed in the process of the wire drawing process on wire breaking were calculated theoretically. Then the corresponding measurements to reduce the rate of wire breaking were proposed. The results show that the the tension of drawing process was the main factor, while choosing the right compression ratio and drawing speed according to the actual situation, the rate of wire breaking could be reduced effectively.
