New alloy copper and aluminium profile wire drawing machine

For some years, Deyang Jiechuang Wire & Cable Machinery Co Ltd has focused on research and development of drawing machines to meet every kind of wire requirement for its customers. It has now developed a new state-of-the-art profile wire drawing machine which can process both alloy copper and aluminium rod into round wire, rectangular wire and small cross section wire (equivalent size Φ 2.8~6.0mm). Its linear speed can reach 15m/s. Featuring a combination of continuous pre-drawing parts and finish drawing section, spooler, as well as continuous annealer, this non-slip drawing machine is ideally geared towards the production of high quality profile wire. These profile wires can be widely applied for cables, transformers and motors as well as generators. As this machine is highly automatic, few operation labours will be involved.
