What Is Compacting Die
When make several cables to be one strand, there needs a die to compact the new thicker wire to be solid with a fixed diameter, which can be realized by compacting dies. Compacting dies are commonly used in cable industry for many areas.
Applicable Industries of Compacting Dies
Like other big dies, wires and cables made by compacting dies can also be used in many industries.
Energy and Infrastructure IndustriesSteel wire strand made by compacting dies are widely used in energy and infrastructure industries.
Communications IndustryWires and cables made by compacting dies also play a significant role in communications industry , like communication cables, conductors.
Electrical Power SystemElectrical power system also need a large quantity of compacted wires as transmission lines and electrical equipment connection lines.
Compacting Dies Made by Different Materials
Now there are mainly following 3 kind of materials for compacting dies.
Tungsten Carbide Compacting DiesTungsten carbide compacting die has much advantage on cost.
Polycrystalline Diamond Compacting DiesThis kind of dies own the longest life time for customers to cut down production cost.
Nano Compacting DiesNano compacting dies bring a good surface finish to your wires and cables.
Applicable for Big Sizes Wires/Cables
Compacting dies perform well in strand and compact several wires or cables to be one piece. Compared with wire drawing dies, HG compacting dies are more suitable for processing big sizes. Tungsten carbide and nano compacting dies have better cost performance to save your production cost.
Big Entrance
When make compacting dies, the entrance part needs to be much bigger than other dies to ensure all the wires or cables can enter the dies successfully. So HG usually choose bigger PCD blanks to realize a big entrance, which also make you use the dies for longer.
Low Friction
A low friction of a compacting die usually brings a successful and quick production. Cable manufacturer no need to adjust dies and machines frequently. The cable yield will be sure
Higher than before. That’s why we keep all areas of a compacting die to be well blended.
The smallest size we make for compacting dies is 2.0mm and the biggest size is 50.0mm.
PCD compacting dies perform well in 2.0mm- 10.0mm. For the bigger sizes, considering the cost , tungsten carbide and nano compacting dies are better choice.
- We are able to design dies according to your wires and machines’information.
It’s upon to which compacting die you choose and which diameters you will draw.
Lead time is decided by your order. Compacting dies always big dies. The normal production time would be about 3 weeks after receiving your formal order.
The dies are usually delivered by international express such as UPS, FedEx, DHL etc. If you have their account, that will be good. If not, we can also deliver the dies by our account.
