Solutions In Tough Economy The ‘Draw’ At FWWD Booth

Leader in Wire Die Technology Features Die-Management Program at wire Southeast ASIA 2009

Wire manufacturers looking for solutions to maximize profitability and remain competitive in the current global recession are encouraged to visit the Fort Wayne Wire Die (FWWD) booth #B11 at the upcoming wire Southeast ASIA 2009 show scheduled for October 13-15 in Bangkok, Thailand.

Along with showcasing its full line of diamond wire drawing dies, FWWD will have personnel on hand to provide details about the company’s unique die-inventory management and recutting services that optimize return on investment for its customers.

“It’s really cost effective from more than just the standpoint of extending die life through timely, precision recutting,” explains John Downey, FWWD’s United States sales manager. “Our customer inventory management system is designed around the customer’s operation and expected die life cycles, with the goal of maximizing die utilization by managing the inventory to demand. By increasing the number of recuts used, the customer’s new die purchases should decrease.”

For high-speed multiwire drawing applications, FWWD will also be prepared to discuss the numerous cost-efficiency benefits of its matched elongation die sets.

Actually on display in the booth will be FWWD’s complete product line, including:

• Wire drawing dies—single crystal diamond, Poly-Di® polycrystalline, Dual-Draw™ and tungsten carbide
• Extrusion tips and dies
• Shaped profile dies
• Poly-Strand™ stranding, bunching and compacting dies
• Enameling dies
• Di-Pro™ diamond powder and compound
• Miscellaneous wear parts
