Practices used to establish and maintain sufficient lubricant film thickness to permit high production rates from wiredrawing machines are presented. Guidelines are given for optimizing the mechanical drawing of descaled steel rod form one to more than six drafts. An overview of wiredrawing machine design, and the variables per draft that affect die pressure, lubricant temperature, pressure and viscosity is given.
