Multi-gauge wiredrawing

$15.00

Multi-gauge wiredrawing is described as a significant improvement in the efficiency of most wiredrawing operations, particularly because its design eliminates time spent restringing a machine. The multi-gauge machine is described in terms of die set-ups, its capstan speeds charted, and several string up time comparisons between conventional and multi-gauge machines given. The author predicts that the multi-gauge design may soon become the standard system for drawing all size ranges of nonferrous wire.
