Application: Wire drawing of 1038 carbon and other materials.
Where In Process?: Kates controllers maintain a constant 30 gpm of cooling water through the wire drawing machine. Blocks stretch or "draw" the wire up to 2000 feet per minute.
Why Flow Rate is Critical?: The machine and water must be temperature controlled to keep the wire from breaking.
What Alternatives Were Considered: None-original equipment from specification several years ago.
Main Reasons for Choosing Kates: Easy to install and maintain.
