MIG Wire Plant

Listing ID #3475295

zenith weldaids limited has consolidated its place among the most important companies in the design, production and assistance of drawing of all types of metal wire, with specialisation in co2 welding wire. Wet drawing lines, wire pay-offs, take-ups and copper- plating tanks are all part of the exclusive series of advanced technology offered by zenith, with increasing quality and skill since 1989

it is used to unwind the carbon steel(wr3m) wire rod for the dry drawing.
this equipment permits to load the coils without stopping the dry drawing line.

the pay off consists of a welded frame and a pair of opposed hardened steel pintle mounted in substantial frame support. The inboard pintle will be fixed axially. A pneumatic disc brake is incorporated for holding the bobbin steady when stationary.

the outboard pintle is fitted with a “live” centre which can be moved axially by pneumatic means to open and close the pintle. When the spool is in position, the “live” pintle is locked in position so the spool is held even if the electricity or air pressure fails.
a pneumatic pusher is included to facilitate the loading of the empty reel.the payoff reel and wire line is totally guarded and fitted with mechanically interlocked safety switches.

as a pre drawing capstan with accumulation and overhead deviation transfer systems(oto) the capstans and the drawing dies are water cooled.

the die holders are combined with lubricant boxes and are adjustable in order to exactly regulate the wire running direction.

the machine body is made up of  heaviest mild steel construction. The capstan is made of a special cast and surface treated in the accumulation area to achieve a longer durability.

the wet draw machine is a slip type, wire drawing machine which has become the standard of the industry for the production of welding wires.
the wire  enters the machine through the inlet by guide pulleys, through the first die and will exit the drawing compartment through the final die. Dies can be fully submerged. The die-holders are machined from solid steel.

final die is rotating type.
