Dies, lubricants and drawing

Expert help at hand

GMP Slovakia is a leading producer of metal reels, drums and special equipment, including many different items for the drawing process. The choice of the reel depends on different elements. The main points are the diameter of the wire, which will be loaded on the reel, the type of material of this wire and the use of the reel. GMP Slovakia is ready to suggest the best reel for each customer, thanks to its experience and knowledge. For copper or aluminium drawing processes, standard reels are DW-Double Wall and FM-Fully Machined for steel wire drawing process the suggested reel is HD-Heavy Duty. All these reels can be machined on the winding surfaces (except FM-Fully Machined which is completely machined, on the internal and on the external surfaces) and can be balanced for high speed. The barrel can be reinforced and is completely closed to prevent humidity problems and the structure of the reel is fully welded. Many other options are available according to customers’ request. The design of all GMP products is studied to guarantee the perfect use with machines of high quality.
