Shaving Die Blanks

A static cutting tool with a circular blade that continuously removes a uniform thickness of metal to remove wire surface imperfections

Cemented carbide shaving die blanks are used to create cutting tools that remove a uniform thickness of metal through a circular blade to improve the surface quality of wires. These blanks help create a surface defect-free wire rod for iron, steel, and non-ferrous metals.

Hyperion Materials & Technologies offers two industry-leading cemented carbide grades designed for wire shaving operations, MP10 and ES35. Both grades are versatile across multiple applications, such as springs for automotive or music, and various materials, like stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, copper, and magnesium. These blanks can be supplied in different sizes, tolerances, and drawing speeds, and the parts can be tailor-made according to your drawing or development in conjunction with Hyperion material experts.

Shaving Die Blanks Benefits

 

Hyperion's shaving die blanks provide several benefits for wire drawing. They are designed and customized as a near-net-shape blank to reduce the grinding time in the die finishing process, saving time and money. These shaving die blanks also improve surface finishing by reducing grinding stock and improving profile quality. Finally, with a combination of unique and consistent grade compositions explicitly designed for wire shaving, Hyperion shaving die blanks improve edge retention, resulting in a longer-lasting tool.

FAQs about Shaving Die Blanks

What are shaving die blanks?

Shaving die blanks are turned into finished shaving dies, which are cemented carbide cutting tools that remove a uniform thickness of metal through a circular blade to improve the surface quality of wires. A shaving die helps create a surface defect-free wire rod for iron, steel, and non-ferrous metals.

What are the benefits of shaving wire compared to other procedures?

There are several benefits to shaving wire with shaving dies manufactured from high-quality cemented carbide shaving die blanks compared to other procedures. First, shaving dies offer an exceptional surface finish for wires that is defect-free for iron, steel, and non-ferrous metals. Second, shaving dies provide excellent flexibility when processing any material. Third, shaving dies enhance the operational speed for processing wires and improve abrasion and wear resistance on the draw-peeled surface. Fourth, shaving dies provide a low investment cost compared to turn-peeling plants. Finally, shaving dies improves draw-peeling by providing the exact adjustment of the chip removal due to the relation of the lean die.​

What applications are shaving dies used for?

Shaving dies made from cemented carbide blanks are utilized across multiple applications, such as springs for automotive, music, valves, and transmissions, and clutch wires. They are also used to draw various materials, such as stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, copper, and magnesium. The blanks can be supplied in different sizes and tolerances, and the parts can be tailor-made according to design or development in conjunction with Hyperion's material experts.

What types of carbide shaving die blanks does Hyperion offer?

Hyperion Materials & Technologies offers two cemented carbide grades for wire drawing shaving die blanks, MP10 and ES35. Both grades are versatile across multiple applications and provide different sizes, tolerances, and drawing speeds.
