Different materials of wire drawing dies
At present, the materials of wire drawing dies include alloy steel dies, hard alloy dies, natural diamond dies, polycrystalline diamond dies, CVD diamond dies and ceramic dies. In recent years, some new materials have been developed.
Comparison of advantages and disadvantages of various wire drawing die materials:
Main comparison - advantages - disadvantages - scope of application
1. Alloy steel wire drawing dies- easy to make - poor wear resistance, short life - basically eliminated
2. Natural diamond drawing dies- high hardness, good wear resistance - high brittleness, difficult to process - wire die with a diameter of less than 1.2mm
3. Carbide wire drawing dies- good polishing, low energy consumption - poor wear resistance, difficult processing - various diameter wire
4. Polycrystalline synthetic diamond(PCD) wire drawing dies - high hardness, good wear resistance - difficult processing, high cost - small wire, wire
5. CVD coating wire drawing dies- high finish, good temperature resistance - complex process, difficult processing - small wire
6. Ceramic wire drawing dies- good wear resistance, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance - thermal shock, poor toughness, difficult processing - not widely used
How to choose suitable wire drawing dies?
Drawing dies of different materials have their relatively reasonable processing objects. The rationality of drawing processing mainly refers to the matching of the mechanical, physical and chemical properties of the wire drawing die and the wire to obtain the longest service life of the die.
In the drawing process of small wire , natural diamond, polycrystalline diamond and CVD coating die are commonly used wire drawing die materials. When drawing small-diameter wires, the CVD-coated diamond die overcomes the anisotropy of the natural diamond die, and at the same time has excellent strength and hardness, the highest drawing output, and the surface quality meets the requirements. The test proves that the service life of CVD coated diamond wire drawing die is equal to that of natural diamond die, and the product qualification rate is high.

During the production process of ceramic diamond grinding wheels, raw materials such as diamonds and binders need to strictly control humidity and temperature. Excessive humidity may cause raw materials to absorb moisture, affecting the bonding strength and hardness of the grinding wheel; while excessive temperature may cause volatilization or unstable quality of certain materials, thus affecting the overall performance of the grinding wheel.
Single crystal diamond cutting tools are high-performance tools made from single crystal diamond, known for their exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and thermal conductivity.Effective grinding methods include using diamond grinding wheels, laser grinding, and mechanical grinding with cast iron or steel discs, each with its own advantages and requirements. Moresuperhard offers various solutions and consumables for grinding single crystal diamond tools, ensuring efficient production and high-quality results.
