[0002] Steel cord is the most widely developed product among radial tire skeleton materials and is also the most difficult product to produce among metal products. It has high strength, good thermal stability and elasticity, and can withstand the forces from inside and outside the radial tire products, improve the strength of the products, limit their deformation, and maintain dimensional stability.
[0003] At present, the wet drawing of steel cord wire is to soak the brass-plated steel wire in lubricating liquid and draw it several times to form the finished steel wire. The sub-finished die is the penultimate die for drawing the finished steel wire. The wear rate of the aperture of the sub-finished die exceeds that of the finished die. In the process of the finished die being replaced and used again until the aperture is out of tolerance, the wire tension at the finished die increases with the increase in the use time of the finished die, which increases the risk of wire breakage and the risk of deterioration of the surface quality of the steel wire. At the same time, too low wire tension at the finished die will also increase die consumption. In particular, with the industrialization of wet-drawn steel wire UT and the trend of higher and higher steel wire strength in the future, die consumption will increase significantly, the proportion of die explosion will increase, and the surface quality of the steel wire will also deteriorate.
