Swaging

$15.00

In the forming process, wire is occasionally swaged. Depending on the percentage reduction from round to its flattened condition, the necessary force changes dramatically. The equipment required and calculation of the necessary force needed to achieve these swaging operations for various sizes and hardness of wire are discussed with examples.
