number of mechanical machines and
allow users to boost output while
simultaneously
reacting
faster
to
individual
customer
requirements.
Compared to the RM series of mechanical
stamping and forming machines, output
can be increased more than 300 per cent,
batches can be processed in half the time
and retooling times cut by up to a factor of
nine.

Company
Stand: 10B38
Paramount Die is more than just a
die company, with its sales engineers
averaging over 20 years of experience in
the wire industry. In addition to helping
its customers with their die needs,
Paramount o ers expertise in all areas of
the wire drawing process.
Several wire industry trends have shaped
the company’s development over the
past ve years. Perhaps the most dramatic
has been the ever-growing trend for wire
drawers to outsource their nished die
requirements.
This shift has caused wire drawers to
become somewhat more dependent on
die suppliers, placing great pressure on
the company to increase capacity for die
nishing, to reduce nished die costs, and
to improve lead times.
Realising these trends and consistently
aiming to meet customers’ needs,
Paramount has been able to reduce
die costs in two ways. The rst is by
standardising on cost-e ective carbide
inserts. The second is by improving
quality and increasing capacity through
automation.
Many of the company’s highly automated
machines run on lights-out operation,
meaning that they will continue to
produce as long as there is raw material
being fed into the system. The automated
production equipment combines high
volume speed and e ciency with
accuracy and repeatability. Because of
its investment in immediately available
inventory, average lead times have been
reduced from three weeks to less than a
few days.
As the company continues to grow
globally as a high volume producer of
carbide drawing dies, it becomes very
important for it to continually invest in
new manufacturing technology.
Paramount is also a supplier of
eco-friendly products to the wire industry
as its die design allows the carbide insert
to be easily recycled. Thousands of
kilograms of used inserts are returned
to Paramount each year to be graded,
sorted and transformed into good-as-new
condition.
The company will exhibit a full line of
wire drawing dies and related equipment.
Products featured include the TR-Series
carbide drawing inserts, shape dies,
extrusion dies, polycrystalline diamond
dies, ParaLoc™ pressure and non-pressure
holders, as well as accessories.
