Today, polycrystalline diamond (PCD) wire dies are used for drawing a wide range of ferrous and nonferrous metals. In many ways, PCD wire dies have revolutionized the way wire makers draw wire, enabling higher drawing speeds, better surface finishes, tighter tolerances, and higher quality standards. Improvements in the PCD manufacturing material and processes used are now beginning to deliver a number of real-world benefits, providing longer wire die production life.
