Many factories take a disposable
approach to their dies, looking for a way
to reduce cost. This low purchase cost
model can have hidden charges that
a ect the production cost and quality of
a mill’s e ciency.
High overnight freight and two-way
freight fees are regularly absorbed from
rush orders when dies are needed quickly
or customer requests demand changes to
stock.
Large inventories, hidden labour and
disposal of good dies from short runs are
common areas where production costs
are increased but not controlled.
An internal die shop can easily eliminate
these expensive problems.
With the right training and machinery
each die is quickly sized for production
and can be adjusted immediately to
accommodate production runs. Correct
die geometry solves many production
problems and good dies pull more
wire. Production costs decrease with an
e cient internal die shop, and Die Quip
has the expertise, training, support and
machinery to get you there.
The company’s extensive training
products include on-site machine
training, die making instruction and die
design programs for operators and plant
management.
Each machine is supplied with Die
Quip’s exclusive Die Making Handbook
that has reference charts, procedures,
formulas and die production instructions.

Depending on the quantity of drawn
wire and also on the care under which
the die tools are being used, all dies are
subject to wear.
Their best economy and e ciency is
achieved if the dies are taken out of
the machine for a fast re-polishing
when an onset of wear is visible in the
drawing cone, where the incoming wire
establishes rst contact with the die.
By doing so, the die tools can be used
successfully and largely with their initial
bore diameter for a long time, prior to
having to enlarge them to their next
larger usable size.
In today’s highly competitive wire
drawing industry, and with the growing
