Advantages
- Great production flexibility
- High manufacturing speeds
- Optimised energy consumption and production processes mean unrivalled levels of productivity (it is possible to manufacture approximately 9 t/h with 4 annealed wires of 1.80 mm)
- Fully submerged drawing process with additional lubrication jets on each die-holder
- Excellent wire quality
