Mechanical descaling, cleaning and lubricating systems

Designing and manufacturing auxiliary machinery and devices, Tecnosider Srl, Italy, provides wire rod mechanical descaling, cleaning and lubricating systems, such as the new patented Dekofil 2000 series, designed to resolve problems connected with wire rod hardening induced with traditional descaling systems. The new Dekofil 2000 series has recently been completed by an innovative rotating die holder, which also has a function for wire rod pre-lubrication. The series now comprises Dekofil T/500 (motorised rotating mechanical descaler at variable speed), Dekofil ND/S 2000 (a motorised rotative cleaner) and Dekofil ND/AL 2000 (a rotating die holder with wire rod pre-lubricating system).

Tecnosider has developed its innovative rotating die holder, model Dekofil ND/AL 2000, that guarantees an optimal result, after the descaling and cleaning line. The rotating die uses two patented pressure dies, designed to apply the necessary amount of lubricant on the wire. The system has a direct cooling system similar to that of fixed dies, which allows the die to work at lower temperature. In addition, the die-lock is similar to the system used in fixed dies. With a simple partial tap rotation, it is possible to extract and substitute the die, instead of complicated operations for the substitution of traditional rotating dies.

The Dekofil 2000 series also includes the motorised rotating mechanical descaler, model T/500, which associates a torsional action of wire rod around its own axis to a bend that is guaranteed inside the limits of the elastic field in strain-stress diagram. The obtained effect is a controlled lengthening of the wire rod’s surface structure and complete decalamination, without modifying or compromising the mechanical characteristics. The descaling action is completed by a strong air-jet action at very high-speed. Tecnosider also offers its model ND/S 2000, a motorised rotative cleaner that eliminates residual rolling scales and subjects the wire rod to a very gentle action of oxide removal that does not damage the wire surface. This model does not cause wire scratching and makes the wire surface ready for the lubricant adhesion.
