Product Information
WERTLI’s Horizontal continuous casting for wires and bars are used world-wide in many applications to produce a large variety of wrought alloys for direct processing in cold mills or drawing machines of the following metals:
- Brasses CuZn10 to CuZn35
- Nickelsilvers CuNi10–18Zn
- Tin bronzes CuSn0,5–8
- Leaded red brasses CuSnZnPb
- Aluminium bronzes CuAI
- Catenary and trolley wires CuSn, CuCd and CuMg
- and many other popular wire alloys
The most outstanding feature of this type of equipment is the number of strands. Mostly 6 to 12 wires or bars are produced simultaneously. These horizontal continuous casting plants are equipped with holding furnaces, strand extraction machines with high precision drives with PC CAST 3000 TS control system with data printing and remote servicing link. Hydraulic wire cutters and wire coilers follow in line. Coil weights up to 2’000 kg and over are common.
Format | Maximum diameter | Number of strands |
---|---|---|
Wires | Ø 12-20 mm | 4-12 |
Wires | Ø 21-35 mm | 4-8 |
