Manufacturing Technology Improvement of Technology and Equipment for Preparing Steel-Copper Wire

Resumo

New technology and equipment developed from the results of research work are created for producing bimetallic wire. A feature of the new technology is production of bimetallic wire by passing a steel core through molten metal. This method of obtaining bimetallic wire is called “freezing” in publications, since the external appearance of the wire obtained is similar to a form crystallized metal. Results are provided for comprehensive studies, and recommendations are aimed at increasing the level of adhesion between a coating and a core by application a thin underlayer of non-ferrous metal (copper, brass, tin, etc.) to the core surface. Use of a rotating metal brush is proposed for coating formation, i.e., a flexible tool cladding (FTC) method.
