CYM Materiales SA manufactures blasting equipment for the mechanical descaling of wire rods by batch orm in-line process ensuring high productivity with a low operating cost and a process that does not pollute the environment.
Mechanical Descaling as a current-day manufacturing process for removing mill scale from steel rods includes processing by:
In-line BAR machines are designed for descaling wire rods or bars and can process in single-strand or multi-strand at the same time with high throughput speeds (more than 250 m / min.). BAR machines also used for blasting steel billets to remove mill scale of the surface to improve the visibility prior to the crack detection process.
According to the model, the machines are equipped with between one (1) and four (4) turbines that together with abrasive concentrators ensure a correct coverage in the processed parts to cater to a varied range of operating requirements.
Blasting machine are complemented with pay-off for wire rod when the equipment is integrated with drawing lines and with external roller conveyors with automatic loading and unloading systems to process bars or billets.
The COIL blasting machine has been designed to process wire rods of up to 3000 kilos of weight at a time ranging from 7 to 20 minutes depending on the type of steel and diameters of wire to be treated.
Two models of machines available, COIL4 and COIL5 with 4m and 5m mandrel and 6 and 8 turbines, respectively, ensure optimum coverage in the coil of processed wires.
According to customer requirements, COIL equipment can have one or two mandrel loading doors. The double door machine minimizes downtime and optimizes the process by allowing the loading of a coil while the inside of the equipment is being blasting.
Wilco system is designed to process low through high carbon rods, .218 inch (5.5mm) diameter through .500 inch (12.7mm) diameter.
Using high quality components that support years of service in wire drawing processes, significantly reducing process costs and simultaneously eliminating environmental problems associated with chemical pickling Over 50 years of development has lead to the current line of six (6) standard models of WILCO Mechanical Descaling Systems to choose from.
Wire Lab specializes in the design, engineering, and manufacture of durable, production-proven mechanical descaling systems. The current WILCO family of mechanical descalers includes the following:
