Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electroplating technology, and in particular to a traction wheel for diamond wire saws and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Technology

[0002] Diamond wire saws, also known as diamond wire saws, are linear superhard material tools made by electroplating a metal wire with a layer of metal deposited on it and diamond abrasive bonded within the metal. During the electroplating process, a traction wheel is used. The traction wheel contacts the wire, making the wire a negative electrode for conduction, thus depositing nickel plating on the wire surface. During electroplating, the wire only contacts a portion of the conductive rod. Over time, this contact area wears down. Furthermore, in traditional diamond wire saws, the electroplating solution tends to settle during electroplating, affecting the plating effect.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent with announcement number CN218145132U provides a method for manufacturing a traction wheel for a diamond wire saw, including a base shaft, two metal plates, several traction wheel plates, four screws, and several conductive rods.

[0004] Although this patent allows for the replacement of worn parts of the conductive rod, it does not allow for the stirring of the electroplating solution to prevent sedimentation. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a traction wheel for manufacturing diamond wire saws, comprising a frame, a conveying mechanism, a traction wheel mechanism, and a take-up mechanism.

Then, pass one end of the wire through the guide roller and fix it on the take-up roller. S2: Drive the conveying roller to rotate through the conveying shaft to convey the metal wire. S3: Make the traction wheel and conductive impeller rotate synchronously through the traction wheel mechanism to stir the electroplating solution and electroplat the wire. S4: Wind the metal wire onto the take-up roller through the take-up mechanism.
