The correct selection of the material of the wire drawing die, the appropriate design of the die hole shape and size, the reasonable formulation of the mold structure and mold repair process, and the accurate and precise processing of the wire drawing die are all of extremely important significance to the production of steel wire.
1. Material of wire drawing die core:
Due to the constraints of the working conditions of wire drawing, the material of the wire drawing die core must not only have high hardness and wear resistance, but also have sufficient strength (compressive strength and bending strength), toughness and a very smooth working surface. At the same time, it is necessary to consider factors such as adapting to the corrosion of various lubricants, various coatings, and oxidation including the atmosphere, requiring low adhesion to the steel wire surface, small expansion coefficient, high thermal conductivity, and low price and convenient processing. . The current steel wire production mainly uses wire drawing dies made of cemented carbide.
2. The characteristics of cemented carbide materials:
Cemented carbide is an alloy made of refractory metal hard carbide as aggregate, cobalt as binder, powder metallurgy method, pressure forming and sintering after mixing. The cemented carbides currently used are mainly divided into three categories: tungsten-cobalt, tungsten-cobalt-titanium and tungsten-cobalt-tantalum-titanium. Because the latter two types of alloys are relatively brittle, they are not suitable for use as wire drawing dies.

Drawing die
(1) Strong polishability and low adhesion. The above-mentioned mirror surface roughness can be processed, which can not only ensure the drawing quality of the steel wire surface, but also reduce the power consumption during drawing due to its low friction coefficient.
(2) The thermal conductivity is high, the linear expansion coefficient is small, and the thermal conductivity is only 0.14～0.21 cal/cm·degree·sec, which can better transfer the heat during drawing.
(3) High hardness and good wear resistance. The room temperature hardness is generally as high as HRA86-93, and there is necessary red hardness. The hardness can be maintained under >500℃, and the hardness will be reduced if it is above 500℃. The wear resistance is 15-20 times higher than that of high-speed tool steel (stainless steel), which can ensure the accuracy of steel wire size under long-term drawing working conditions.
(4) Good corrosion resistance, the mold will not be oxidized and corroded during the storage, cleaning and grinding and repair process, and it can work continuously for a long time.
