Computer Integrated Manufacture of Complex Dies for Drawing Non-Circular Cross-Section Wires

  • Chapter
Proceedings of the Twenty-Seventh International Matador Conference

Summary

Wire drawing dies, even for round to round drawing, have complex shapes and their manufacture has so far been a very specialist art. Dies for drawing round to non-round wires have even more complex shapes and the manufacture of these dies has been found difficult even with the aid of laser and electro-discharge machining techniques.
