There are two kinds of drawing machine: powder drawing and water drawing. powder drawing is fit for junior
drawing(6.5mm~4.0mm). One powder drawing machine has 4 tanks and 4 molds. One tank is matched with
a mold. Each of them are offered energy by a electromotor. 0.9mm(max)can be “eat” when the wire cross a mold.
There are no loss of weight during drawing.
Anneal is to low the tensile strength of wire. The stove is solid and built with red bricks. The architecture of anneal
stove is cuboid. Different thickness of wire require different temperature. Range is from 700℃to 900℃. Output of
the anneal stove, the tensile strength is 400N~500N.
Galvanized wire is made by Q195 low carbon steel wire .
Main process is wire drawing -achid washing , rust removing-annealing -zinc coaing -coiling and packing. Mainly used in construction ,
handicraft , wire mesh , express way fencing mesh , packaging and other daily uses .
