production problems and good dies pull
more wire.
Production costs decrease with an efficient
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 efficiency
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 first
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 use of
multi-wire drawing machines with up to
48 wires drawn on a single machine, a
well-equipped and efficiently functioning
modern die-workshop is an absolute must,
if drawing efficiency and economy is to be
maintained at the highest possible level.
Unique concepts, such as Eder’s USP-Twin
and HGM-21 equipment, have been
developed to meet all these demands.
Eder-Austria offers a variety of easy to
understand and operate state-of-the-art
die-reconditioning machines, and its high
degree of inherent automation can reduce
the number of personnel and the levels of
skills formerly required, while at the same
time offering longer die life, higher tonnages
of drawn wire, and lower operational cost.
Correct refurbishment of dies regularly
undertaken in time and with appropriate
machines can prolong the service life of
costly die tools and as such can contribute
to the economicwelfare higher net product
value in a wire and cable plant.
