MAKTELSANDry drawing
Straight-line, bull-block, and inverted-vertical arrangements; block count, rotating die boxes, or rolling cassettes are matched to the route.
Steel Wire Production
Steel Wire Drawing Machines and Lines
Steel wire drawing machinery is evaluated as a line: wire rod pay-off and preparation, drawing blocks or capstans, lubrication/cooling, and the required take-up format.
Carbon, stainless, alloy, spring, fastener, fence, mesh, prestressing, or steel-cord directions require separate confirmation of product, diameter range, and process route.
Which machines and lines can be evaluated?
The main drawing machine and its entry/exit equipment are related but separately scoped.
Wet drawing
A distinct process direction for different diameter, cooling, and lubrication conditions; it is not a synonym for dry drawing.
Wire rod preparation
Rod pay-off, mechanical descaling, brushing, belt sanding, borax/soap, drying, and pointing may be considered.
Finishing
Spooler, horizontal/vertical coiler, basket coiler, precision traversing, straightening, and cut-to-length options depend on output.
Drawing and take-up distinctions
Machine layout and finished-wire format must both be defined.
Straight-line, bull block, inverted vertical
They differ in wire path, accumulation, floor space, and operating approach.
Coiler, spooler, basket coiler
A coiler forms a coil, a spooler winds onto a spool, and a basket coiler collects into a suitable basket.
PC and ribbed wire
Prestressing or ribbed-wire directions require separate forming, stress-relief, and test confirmation.
Technical information used for machine selection
Comparable quotations require product and plant data.
Wire
Rod type, input/output diameter, surface, and end use.
Production
Reduction route, capacity, coil/spool format, and inline processes.
Plant
Space, utilities, existing pay-off/take-up, and control interfaces.
New investment, capacity increase, or modernization
A new line, capacity increase, replacement, or retrofit is compared against product range, mechanical condition, bottleneck, and allowable shutdown.
A retrofit is not assumed to be preferable when the target product or capacity exceeds the existing machine limits.
When reviewing the quotation scope
Price is reviewed together with battery limits and total investment impact.
- EquipmentPay-off, preparation, drawing blocks, measurement, and take-up.
- AcceptanceDocumentation, FAT/SAT criteria, training, installation, and commissioning responsibilities.
- Commercial scopeDelivery, warranty, critical spares, logistics, import, and life-cycle considerations.
Maktelsan’s approach
Maktelsan supports technical-commercial requirement definition, research of sourcing alternatives, and comparison of quotation scopes. It is not presented as the machine manufacturer, designer, installer, commissioning contractor, maintenance provider, or performance guarantor; these responsibilities must be confirmed in the relevant supplier documentation and contract.
Frequently asked questions
Concise answers clarify the technical-commercial evaluation scope.
What is the difference between dry and wet wire drawing?
Lubrication/cooling environment, wire range, and machine arrangement differ; product data determines the direction.
Does a drawing line consist only of the drawing machine?
No. Rod preparation, pay-off, take-up, coiling/spooling, measurement, and handling may be separate scope items.
Are a coiler and spooler the same?
No. A coiler forms a free coil; a spooler winds wire onto a spool or reel.
What determines line price?
Diameter range, blocks, speed/capacity, automation, take-up format, auxiliaries, installation scope, and commercial terms.
