Description
This method uses specially designed and constructed equipment for precision laboratory measurement of wiredrawing force as wire passes through the die. Consequently, it is possible to compare the results obtained for different characteristics of the drawing die and establish the technical specifications of dies based on the specific material to be drawn. This study defines and analyzes criteria for evaluating the most appropriate dies by using the data provided by the testing equipment, which allows wire to be drawn at a controlled and constant rate through different types of die subject to experimentation.
