DEM SpA
DEM SpA will present its newest
solutions for wire cold rolling that make a
di erence when compared to traditional
production processes.
The list of technologies supplied by DEM
includes:
• Flat wire rolling lines
• Pro le wire rolling lines
• High-speed lines for reinforcing wire
• Cassettes for rolling and compacting
• Micro rolling cassettes used in
drawing lines
• Auxiliary equipment: turks heads,
rolling stands, payo s, take-ups, wire
cut-o s, bars collecting systems,
pro le measurement units and
ancillaries
Through its partner company Eurodraw
Wire Equipment, manufacturing equip-
ment, process lines and complete plants
for the steel wire industry are part of the
DEM Group of products.
The company designs and builds a wide
range of cabling and stranding machines
for the production of steel wire ropes, PC
wire and PC strand lines, and auxiliary
equipment.

Gimax
Gimax has redesigned its wet drawing
equipment, and the traditional
“submerged” drawing tank has evolved
into the TRS range of non-slip wet
drawing units with independently driven
vertical capstans, thus combining most of
the bene ts of a dry drawing line with a
wet one. The result is an example of the
advanced technology available in wire
drawing.
The TRS is a “spray” type wet drawbench,
where the lubricant is sprayed onto the
die and die box and onto the capstan.
This range is suitable for both ferrous
and non-ferrous wires, and its reduced
footprint and easily accessible parts
and components not only o er cost
savings in terms of oorspace and labour
(operation and maintenance), but are an
important aid in decreasing downtime
and consequently increasing productivity.
High productivity and a better nal
wire quality coupled with features such
as perfect alignment of wire between
die and capstan as well as low energy
consumption due to the latest electronic
control of motor and line operation go
to ensure one of the most advanced
drawing solutions available on the
market.
The main features are:
• Reduced die and capstan wear
• Mechanical line speed reaches 33m/
second
• Fixed or rotating dies
• Rotating die speed varies in
proportion to line speed
• Each block can be bypassed
• Synchronisation by means of dancer
arm
• Input wire diameter starts at 2mm
(steel wire) or 3mm with aluminium
With 38 years of experience in welding
wire machinery and with the speci c
experience of Gimax engineers in the
production of wire, and consequently
with an excellent knowledge of the
entire process of wire manufacturing, the
redesign also led to the introduction of
a range of TRD dry drawing equipment,
available with vertically or horizontally
mounted capstans – non-slip (with
independently driven capstans), tilted
horizontal capstans, rotating dies,
water-cooled capstans, etc.
The capstan diameter can vary from
300 to 1,200mm depending on the
application and diameter of wire, and it
can reach a line speed of 35m/second.
In non-ferrous applications (aluminium),
the drawbenches are often used in
combination with shaving or other
equipment.
Gimax also manufactures fully automatic
and semi-automatic respooling machines
and a full range of no-twist after packing
units.
