Drawing Wireis a
metalworking process used to reduce the diameter of a
wire by pulling the wire through a single, or series of, drawing
die(s). There are many applications for wire drawing, including electrical wiring, cables, tension-loaded structural components, springs, paper clips, spokes for wheels, and stringed musical instruments. Although similar in process,
drawing is different from
extrusion, because in drawing the
wire is pulled, rather than pushed, through the die. Drawing is usually performed at room temperature, thus classified a
cold working process, but it may be performed at elevated temperatures for large wires to reduce forces.Wires can also be drawn into different shapes, although this is much more difficult than diameter reductions. More recently drawing has been used with
molten glass to produce high quality optical fibers.
