Abstract:
A wire rod is payed out from a pay-off stand and 1 descaled in a descaling process. After preheating to a predetermined temperature by a preheating device, it is subjected to a lubrication pretreatment through a zinc calcium phosphate solution applied with ultrasonic wave in the lubrication pretreatment process. After rinsing process, the lubrication-pretreated wire rod is coated with a calcium stearate or a sodium stearate in lubricating process. Thereafter, the wire rod is dried sufficiently in drying process, and then added with a predies lubricant in wire drawing process and coiled by a coiler.
Abstract:
The pasty damping agent is used to damp mechanical and/or acoustic oscillations. The agent contains as a minimum compound a solid finely divided substance or a mixture of solid finely divided substances, as a liquid phase, a silicone oil, a polyglycol, a mineral oil and/or a saturated or aromatic aliphatic carbon dioxide ester, an agent for increasing the activity of the limit layer or a surfactant, a magnesium and/or aluminum silicate and/or a silicon dioxide finely divided as a viscosity stabilizer and possibly a small quantity of an empty oxidiser. The damping agent is used in different hydraulic damping devices or for industrial vibration shock absorbers.
Abstract:
A lubricant composition is disclosed which includes fumaric acid salts as the main lubricating ingredient dispersed in an aqueous medium which also includes an organic thickening agent and other optional materials. A hot forging process utilizing this lubricant composition is also described.
Abstract:
A precoat composition including a particulate vitreous material and a particulate lubricant material (graphite and or boron nitride) dispersed in an organic medium comprising a solution of a polymeric binder is applied to the workpiece, and the workpiece is heated to a temperature (1000 to 1400°F) sufficient to remove (538 to 760°C) the organic medium and leave a residue of vitreous material and lubricant material on the workpiece. The workpiece is then inserted in a heated split die at 1350 to 1750°F and the die loaded to alter the shape (752°C to 960°) of the workpiece. The ratio of the lubricant material to the vitreous material is at least 1:1 and the particle size of the lubricant material and the vitreous material is not more than 200 mesh (U.S. Series), this being important for the surface quality of the shaped workpiece.
