Femtosecond Laser Processing Equipment Offers New Solutions for Wire Drawing Die Manufacturing

Wire drawing die is a kind of mould used for metal drawing, and its manufacturing process needs to consider many factors, such as the hardness, toughness and wear resistance of the material. The traditional manufacturing method of wire drawing die has some limitations, such as insufficient machining precision, easy to be affected by heat, and so on. And the appearance of femtosecond laser processing equipment provides a new solution for the manufacturing of wire drawing die.

As a kind of high-precision and high-efficiency processing equipment, femtosecond laser processing equipment is widely used in various fields. In the fields of scientific research, aerospace, medicine, optics, jewellery, clocks and watches, precision machinery, etc., femtosecond laser processing equipment has become an important means of manufacturing high-quality products by virtue of its unique processing advantages. In the application of wire drawing die, femtosecond laser processing equipment also plays an important role.

First of all, femtosecond laser processing equipment has the characteristics of high precision and high efficiency. In the manufacture of wire drawing moulds, femtosecond laser processing equipment can control the energy of the laser beam and processing parameters to achieve high-precision processing, thus improving the surface quality and dimensional accuracy of wire drawing moulds. At the same time, the processing speed of femtosecond laser processing equipment is very fast, which can greatly shorten the manufacturing cycle and improve production efficiency.

Secondly, femtosecond laser processing equipment can process various hard materials. In the manufacture of wire drawing die, it is necessary to use materials with high hardness and good wear resistance, such as cemented carbide and ceramics. Traditional processing methods are difficult to process these materials, while femtosecond laser processing equipment can achieve the processing of these hard materials by adjusting the laser parameters and controlling the laser energy.

Thirdly, femtosecond laser processing equipment can reduce the waste of raw materials. The traditional wire drawing mould manufacturing method needs to go through many procedures and complex heat treatment process, which is easy to cause the waste of raw materials. The femtosecond laser processing equipment can complete the manufacturing of wire drawing die through one processing, greatly reducing the waste of raw materials and reducing production costs.

In addition, femtosecond laser processing equipment can also achieve high-precision microfabrication. In the manufacture of wire drawing die, sometimes need to carry out the processing of micro-fine structure, such as micro-hole, micro-slot and so on. Traditional processing methods are difficult to achieve these micro-structures, while femtosecond laser processing equipment can achieve high-precision micro-fabrication by controlling the diameter of the laser beam and processing parameters.

Femtosecond laser processing equipment's high precision, high efficiency, can process hard materials and microfine structures, etc., for the manufacture of wire drawing die provides a new solution. With the continuous progress of science and technology and the expansion of application fields, the application of femtosecond laser processing equipment in the manufacture of wire drawing moulds will become more and more extensive.
