Wire Drawing Dies

Wire drawing dies are used in the wire and tube forming industry, where wire or tube is formed into the desired size of steel using wire drawing die forming technology. SPP Industry has a proven track record in this field, having worked in partnership with major manufacturers for over 10 years. We can design moulds according to the dimensions of the wire or tube and provide additional services such as PVD coating.

Technologies:

  • Integral or inlaid carbide up to 1400mm diameter.
  • Mould bores with complex contours and demanding step face manufacturing technology.
  • 3D profilometer measurement and 3D co-ordinate measurement technology.
  • Carbide and diamond material selection.

Applications:

  • Ferrous or non-ferrous metals
  • Copper wires for flat cables, etc.
  • Connector pins for office automation equipment
  • Ornaments such as necklaces
  • Copper wires for automotive alternators, voice coil motors, small motors, actuators, etc.
  • Tubes

Cold Heading Dies

From the beginning, SPP Industry has had a reputation for excellence in the cold heading and hot forging industry. The Carbide Division of SPP Industries is part of that tradition. Years of experience will bring you the rewards of high quality and fast turnaround for your specific Tungsten Carbide Cold Heading Die needs. Our newest introduction, the STUDER CNC grinder, accomplishes the complex contours required for dies bores in this field.

We produce tools for all stages of fastener manufacturing. Header and trimming dies, standard and special punches, rolling dies, release pins, inserts and cutting tools are all part of our standard manufacturing programme. Our product range includes dies made from a wide range of alloy steels, high speed steel, tungsten carbide and sintered high speed steel.

Can Tooling

We supply dies and tools made from tungsten carbide or hardened steel for can manufacturing applications, producing a variety of grades through the use of cobalt or nickel binders, for use in the manufacture of drawn cans, lid dies, ring dies, wall ironing can making machines, copper bending machines and necking tools.

Products

  • Bodymaker Punch
  • Edge Cutting Dies
  • Wire Drawing Dies
  • Bronze Tooling Dies
  • Ironing and redrawing rings
  • Dome Dies and Holders
  • Industrial ceramic shrinkage dies

All of our can tooling and dies products are hot isostatically sintered to ensure optimum metallurgical quality, and our corrosion-resistant grades help to prevent damage to your die components during the manufacturing process, as well as prevent leaching of various lubricants.

Ammunition tooling

Designed to produce the highest quality ammunition tooling making tools incorporating new Tungsten Carbide and speciality steels. The state-of-the-art STUDER CNC grinding machining centre produces correctly shaped tip shapes with mirror polishing, replacing the traditional hand polishing process. Grinding and polishing of the internal contours of all dies is carried out only once, with perfect tangency between cone and radius, and accuracy of the dies is guaranteed by 3D profilometer measurement technology.

Products:

  • Drawing dies
  • Ceramic and steel dies
  • Profile bullet dies and tooling
  • Pins/pins
  • Punches
  • Forging dies
  • AP core
  • Cartridge drawing dies
