Wire technology : process engineering and metallurgy /
Wright, Roger N.
Wire technology : process engineering and metallurgy / Roger N. Wright. - Burlington, MA : Butterworth-Heinemann/Elsevier, c2011. - xv, 320 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
The general idea -- A brief history of the technology -- Twentieth century equipment concepts -- Basic engineering variables pertinent to drawing -- Basic drawing mechanics -- Drawing temperature -- Drawing speed -- Friction, lubrication and surface quality -- Drawing die and pass schedule design -- Shaped dies and roller dies -- Mechanical properties of wire and related testing -- Drawability and breaks -- Relevant aspects of copper and copper alloy metallurgy -- Relevant aspects of carbon and low alloy steel metallurgy -- Other metallurgical systems for wire technology -- Wire coatings -- Redraw rod production -- Wire forming -- Physical properties -- Current and near-term developments.
This all-new text is the first to explain the complex theory and sophisticated engineering concepts related to ferrous and non-ferrous wire drawing in an accessible way for practicing engineers. It is designed to facilitate the entry and training of new engineers and upgrade the professional practice of those already in the field facing increased product demands and tightening specifications.--Cover
