Manual monitoring for flaws, which is dependent on operator experience, is normal praxis during wiredrawing. This paper investigates different methods to monitor the drawing process. Force measurement and an optical method have been tested in plant experiments. Monitoring of the drawing force gives some information, but is not reliable. Optical methods are expensive and sensitive for variation in the lubricant layer.
