Metal Wires can be done using various techniques, such as bending, cutting, piercing, flattening, and coiling. Each technique requires specific tools and equipment, such as CNC wire bending Machine, stamping machine, and so on. The process may also involve the use of heat and other materials to achieve the desired shape and finish. Hereby, we mainly introduce our wire Forming service and ability.
What is Wire Forming
Wire forming has a long history, dating back to the Bronze Age, where it was utilized to create intricate gold jewelry. This technique continued to develop through the Middle Ages and became a pivotal technology during the Industrial Revolution.
The fundamentals of wire forming have remained relatively consistent: wire is drawn to the required dimensions and then shaped into useful forms. However, the tools, techniques, and materials have undergone significant evolution, especially during the 20th Century.
Wire forming involves shaping metal wire to produce practical components such as springs, fasteners, and retaining rings. While wire typically possesses a round cross-section, it can also be flat or shaped to exhibit square, rectangular, or trapezoidal cross-sections.
Terminology around wire can be ambiguous. Round metal lengths with diameters between 10 mm and 100 mm are often called rods, and even larger pieces are termed round bar stock. However, these distinctions are somewhat arbitrary, and rod may be referred to as wire and subjected to wire forming processes.
To prepare wire for forming, it must first be drawn through a die until it attains the desired dimensions. This die is a tool with a conical opening that progressively decreases in size. As the wire is pulled through, pressure from the die’s sides reduces its diameter. Care is taken to avoid excessive force, as this could cause the wire to break or stretch. Consequently, wires typically pass through multiple dies, gradually reducing in diameter until the final specifications are attained.
During wire forming, drawn wire is straightened by passing it through a series of rollers, and tools are employed to bend and shape it. As an example, consider a bent pin. The wire is drawn over a tool that forms a bend of the desired angle before being cut to the final length. In the case of bent pins, the wire forming process may also involve a die to punch or drill a hole in the wire, along with a cutting tool to chamfer the ends.
Wire Forming Process
The wire forming process involves various techniques to shape wire into intricate three-dimensional forms. In addition to bending, wire forming includes
-upsetting (compression in the axial direction),
-extrusion (forcing wire through a narrow opening),
-swaging (shaping and side pressing),
-stamping (using dies to bend and shape wire),
-twisting (combining lengths and creating specific shapes),
-stretching (elongating and thinning wire).
As s professional manufacturer,we also use roll forming, welding, knurling, chamfering, and weaving to create complex parts.
