Stationary block drawing and handling of wire

$15.00

Operating economies offered by stationary block (vs rotary block) drawing are reviewed. Coil size is unlimited, wire can be drawn from the packages without additional handling, inspection can proceed during drawing, block stripping time and bundling and tying of coils are eliminated, and palletizing and storage are simplified. Production gains of 15-50% are possible.
