What Are the Special Requirements for Wire Drawing Dies Used in Cleaned Tungsten Wire Production?

Wire drawing dies (typically made of diamond or cemented carbide/tungsten steel) must meet the following special requirements:

  • High Hardness: Tungsten wire is highly hard, so the die must be wear-resistant (e.g., natural or synthetic diamond).
  • High Precision: Die aperture tolerance must be controlled at the micron level to ensure consistent tungsten wire diameter.
  • Smooth Inner Surface: The die bore surface must be highly polished to reduce friction and minimize surface scratches on the tungsten wire.
  • High Temperature Resistance: The die heats up due to friction during drawing and must withstand temperatures of several hundred degrees Celsius.
  • Chemical Stability: Die materials must resist corrosion from lubricants or cleaning agents.
  • Geometric Design: The die bore must have an appropriate cone angle (approximately 8–12°) and reduction zone length to optimize drawing force and prevent wire breakage.
