Application of Carbide in the Cold Heading Process

Cold heading is an efficient way to produce parts with a high strength-to-weight ratio. The process involves multiple steps that can result in highly accurate parts. First, the wire is annealed, which reduces its risk of cracking. Next, it is pulled through a hole in a mold that reduces the wire to the desired size. This process ensures high accuracy and minimizes scrap.

The material of die in cold heading machine is the key factor to manufacture high precision parts. The die in the cold heading machine is made of a high quality carbide alloy which provides good wear resistance and a long service life for the parts. The cold heading die is usually customized according to the specific requirements of customers. The performance of the carbide is an important guarantee for the realization of efficient and reliable cold heading processing.
