Machined wire forms

Threaded Wire Forms

We have the capability to roll and cut thread wires ranging from .125" to .625" (3mm to 16mm) in diameter using advanced rolling and threading machines. Here's how we handle this process:


  1. Wire Sizing and Material Selection:
    We begin by selecting the appropriate wire material based on the customer’s specifications (e.g., steel, stainless steel, or other alloys). The wire is then drawn or purchased in a range of diameters, typically from 3mm to 16mm (.125" to .625"), depending on the order.
     
  2. Threading Process Types:
    • Flat Die Rolling: We use flat dies to form threads by pressing the wire between two rollers that have thread profiles. This is ideal for achieving uniform threads on wire diameters from 3mm to 16mm.
    • Planetary Thread Rolling: This method can be used for higher volumes and complex thread forms, especially for large-diameter wires, producing precise and smooth threads.
    • Cut Threading: A rotary cutting machine is commonly used to cut threaded wire. The machine uses a rotating blade or shear to cut the wire while it is being held securely, typically in a clamping or feeding mechanism.

  1. Threading a bent wire form
    Depending on the profile, we can thread before or after the part it is formed. And in some cases completely automated
     
  2. Quality Control:
    Throughout the process, we employ rigorous inspection techniques, such as micrometer measurements and thread gages, to ensure the threads meet the necessary specifications and tolerances for applications like fasteners, connectors, and mechanical assemblies.
     

By utilizing this method, we can produce consistently high-quality machined wire forms, whether for small or large batches, with diameters ranging from 3mm to 16mm, for a variety of industries.

Chamfered Wire Forms

Chamfered wire forms offer several advantages, particularly in applications where precision, safety, and ease of assembly are critical. Here are the key benefits:


  • Edge Smoothing: Chamfering the edges of wire forms removes sharp points or burrs, reducing the risk of injury during handling or installation. This is particularly important in applications where parts are handled manually or assembled in high-speed manufacturing environments.


  • Improved Fit: Chamfered edges allow wire forms to fit more easily into mating parts or holes, facilitating smoother and faster assembly. This is especially beneficial in automated production processes or when the wire forms need to align with other components accurately.


  • Cleaner Appearance: The smooth, beveled edges created by chamfering give wire forms a cleaner, more polished look. This can be an important factor in consumer-facing products or parts that are visible after assembly.


  • Thread Alignment: In threaded wire forms, chamfered edges assist with better thread alignment and engagement, reducing the risk of cross-threading during assembly. This ensures a more secure and reliable connection.


  • Easier Handling: Chamfered edges make the wire forms easier to handle and manipulate during manufacturing, assembly, or packaging, reducing the chance of damage to the product and improving handling efficiency.


In summary, chamfered wire forms enhance safety, durability, functionality, and appearance, making them an excellent choice for a variety of industrial, commercial, and consumer applications.
