Analysis Software

Drawing dies or wire rolling machines are generally used to form round or square wires into profile wires, in stages. With every stage the wire gradually assumes the desired shape. It is notable in this respect that the material flows mainly axially and is hard to form into radial zones. The cost of tooling and manufacture is relatively high for new profiles. A continuous process chain from tool making to verification of the tools is desirable in order to recognise and avoid possible faulty tooling at an early stage.

COPRA® FEA RF WireRolling offers an easy and speedy way to verify the generated tool rolls. The software is powerful enough to analyze the entire process in 20 to 30 minutes, so the impact of any modifications of the start cross section or the roll geometry are available within a very short time.
