Applying AC drives to multibench wiredrawing

$15.00

The paper discusses the conversion of a multibench ferrous wiredrawing machine from common-armature DC control to common-bus, flux-vector, AC control. Improvements and differences are compared and contrasted in the following categories: line speed, dancer control, efficiency and power consumption, and maintenance. Methodology of investigation, application, implementation, and operation are detailed.
