Rotating Die Holders – Rotating Die Box
Rotating die holders are a very easy way to increase productivity and reduce die wear on wire drawing lines.
The rotating die holder itself is continuously being cooled by means of re-circulating water around the die seating
surface as the die rotates around the wire during the wire drawing operation. Lubrication boxes are also provided to
hold dry or liquid lubricants.
The Advantages over Stationary Die Units are :
- Rotating die holder improves wire drawing efficiency
- Longer die life - slower & even die wear
- Less wire breaks - cooler drawing temperatures
- Less maintenance down-time
- Eliminates oval die wear – higher wire tolerance
- Reduce drawing temperatures
- Improved lubrication of wire
- Improved Wire finish - Less wire scarring
- Faster line speeds
