WWM TS 560/8-1 wire drawing machine

WWM TS 560/8-1 wire drawing machine was built in 2014 in Italy by WWM Technology Srl (now EJP Italmec Sp. z o.o.). The machine is used in the process of reducing the diameter of various types of wire by pulling it through a series of rollers. Once reduced to the appropriate diameter, the wire is confectioned directly onto a carousel or stand.

The wire drawing line consists of the following machines:
1. WWM TS 560/8-1 wire drawing machine
2. WWM SV5 vertical static wire pay-off
3. WWM DSM 01 mechanical descaler
4. WWM AF 1000 wire coiler

Wire feeding precision is ensured by the WWM wire pay-off, which consists of two tilting drums and a central column. It enables easy loading of material coils weighing a maximum of 3000 kg each, without stopping the drawing machine. During threading, the sheave and basket are lowered by a hoist with AC motor. The scale on the entire surface of the wire is also broken off during machining. Once the rod has been bent in four planes, a nozzle located in front of the press removes the scale with compressed air. The press then pushes commercial steel wool against on the rod surface through a double series of interpenetrating blades.
