The methods of producing square wire

Generally speaking, our company has 5 methods for producing square wire.
(Please note that the process for producing ultra fine square wire is confidential.)
Each method has its own characteristics, as shown in Table 1.

Table 1: Relationship between method of producing square wire, cost, and quality

To produce precise parts, the recommended method is to draw the wire through dies (method 1). For economical mass production of thick square wire, cut roll (method 5) should be chosen. If both quality and cost are important, the Turk's-head roll insert formula (method 2) is the best option.

We choose the method of producing square wire that provides a balance between quality and cost, depending on the customer's request. The details of each method are as follows.

① Drawing for square wire

Although drawing offers superior precision in size and camber compared to other methods, it comes at a higher cost due to its slow drawing speed. Additionally, producing square wire on hard materials can be challenging through drawing. Nevertheless, drawing is an ideal option for precise parts and small production runs.

Turk’s-head roll insertion formula for square wire

Although there is an initial cost for rolls, the balance between quality and cost using this method is superior. This approach is particularly well-suited for making springs from square wire.

Turk’s-head roll flexible formula for square wire

   While the initial cost of rolls may not be necessary, camber and twist are inevitable when working with hard materials using this method. As a result, this approach is best suited for softer materials.

 

 ④ Cassette roller dies for square wire

   Initial cost of rolls is not necessary, however right angles get out of order at times, and radius of edge is not sharp.

 

Cut rolls for square wire

  It is easy to set rolls, so work efficiency is high, however initial cost of cut rolls is expensive, and each radius of edges is different at times.

  Production of ultra fine custom shaped wire

 We are producing ultra fine custom shaped wire by precise rolls. As the thickness and width of custom shaped wire are under 0.5mm(0.02 inches), we call it ultra fine. Because it is difficult to produce custom shaped wire under 0.5mm(0.02 inches).

Our features are 

l      We can produce ultra fine custom shaped wire on hard materials.          The minimum size is 0.1×0.1mm (0.0039×0.0039 inches) square wire.   In case of soft materials the ultra fine square wire can be produced by slitting plates or drawing through dies, but in case of hard materials slitting or drawing is difficult. Our method is rolling round wire to ultra fine custom shaped wire, so we can do it on hard materials.

l      The minimum tolerance of size is ±0.0025mm(±0.000098 inches). Camber and twist are able to be controlled.

l      We are good at producing a small lot for a test.

Application of ultra fine custom shaped wire

The purpose of using ultra fine square wire is mostly miniaturizing products, the demand of ultra fine custom shaped wire is increasing as well small products are increasing in the world. Definitely springs made of square wire and motors made of square electrical wire are increasing, because square or rectangle wire is wound closely compared with round wire. The surface area of custom shaped wire is larger than that of round wire, so custom shaped wire is used for radiation and connector of electrical parts. After all ultra fine custom shaped wire is useful for miniaturizing products.
