Read MoreThe cornerstone of Radyne wire processing lines is their state-of-the-art induction heating technology. Renowned for its remarkable efficiency and precision, this system not only reduces decarburization but also maintains the structural integrity of the wire’s grain. Additionally, it possesses the versatility to accommodate exotic alloy steels, demanding higher hardening temperatures.
Read MoreIn the new DD 350-III machine generation, the rotary wire straightener has been re-arranged and is now positioned directly ahead of the cutter, behind the reducing section and the wire feeding unit. In this way, Amba avoids transversal forces and can act on the form-rolled wire during the feeding motion.

Each of the elements in the alloy contributes distinct characteristics.
Read MoreSome springs, like compression springs, require that their ends be ground to a flattened state in order to facilitate their positioning when used in service. Spring-end grinding is carried out on spring grinding machines that are equipped with abrasive grinding wheels (also called grinding stones). This operation is said to be one of the most expensive operations in the process of manufacturing compression springs. Because of this, spring grinding machine makers and suppliers of spring grinding wheels put a good amount of effort into improving the grinding operation by reducing the grinding time and increasing the life of the grinding wheel.
