Depending on the thickness of the wire, the equipment used is different. Tank wire drawing machine is generally used for coarse wire drawing, water tank wire drawing machine is practical and middle drawing, fine drawing, numerical control micro drawing machine is suitable for micro wire. The production methods of metal fiber include traditional drawing and cutting method, melting drawing method, cluster drawing method, scraping method, cutting method and so on.
Metal fiber.
The main production methods of metal fiber are: drawing method (cluster drawing method, monofilament drawing), cutting method, fusion beam method.
Drawing method: monofilament drawing and cluster drawing belong to the drawing method, monofilament drawing is the use of metal wire drawing machine, the advantages of high precision, but low cost and efficiency; Cluster drawing is to assemble many stainless steel wires for continuous drawing of many strands. Nowadays, the world's large-scale production of high-strength ultra-fine metal fiber high-end products of the production enterprises mostly use cluster drawing method.
Cutting method: cutting method mainly includes: milling method, turning method, cutting method, scraping method and so on. It is mechanically cut into metal fibers by equipment or special equipment.
Melting beam method: melting beam method is the earlier production of stainless steel fiber production method, mainly including: crucible melting beam method drawing method, hanging drop melting beam method drawing method, melting wire drawing method. The principle of the beam fusion method is that stainless steel wire is heated to a molten state, and then the molten metal liquid is sprayed or thrown out by a special device and cooled to form the metal fiber .
