Since you are making the presentation, how much are you or your company prepared to pay someone to do your work and research?

The Wire and cable industry is a very diversified industry. You state that you are evaluating this industry for a new potential market.

That is a very broad based statement that you really need to narrow down or provide more specifics. Are you interested in bare wire or insulated products. What type of metal are your talking about. Wire has been used in the seal industry for years. Are you talking about that kind of product or something new.

Again even if someone had the information you are seeking, they would need more information to respond.

I would suggest that you go to the WAI bookstore and see if you can find appropriate reference books and materials.

Tough crowd!

Thank you for your input. I have done many hours of research. I am looking for some general schematics of the process of wire making. I don't need the breakdown of the different finishing sectors.
And any written supporting material that can corroborate my research information.
I have shared much of my work in the machine tool industry with colleges to further benefit the industry as a whole.

Hello there SpindleSeals;

Oh we're not such a tough crowd.

You started this thread on 05-13-2009 @ 10:29 AM EDT when I was in Asia on business and about 11 hours ahead of the Forums time.

There was a second thread started from Kabel.Consult. about 26 hours after your thread at 05-14-2009 @ 12:19 PM EDT (Energy Costs) and this thread then took the highlight position on the front or welcome page of the "General" Technical Segment.

I imagine then, through various responses in the "General" Technical Segment, your thread was ultimately lost in the pile so to speak until I found it today and commanded that it be placed in proper temporal position against its last response. Sorry that I missed your thread earlier.

"Spectre07" was right in explaining to you that the wire and cable industry is very diversified and unfortunately you did not even categorize your request to either the steel industry or to the non-ferrous industries. These are the two major divisions between sections of the wire industry.

The industry is also quite complex in its various section manufacturing sequences and I doubt if you would find anybody prepared to do the kind of major work you requested for free. (We have assumed you are looking for the manufacturing sequences at some depth because you stated you have done "many hours of research".)

If you want to actually learn something about the manufacturing sequences in the wire and cable industry, I suggest you visit this link: www.wirenet.org/waistore/index.cfm and review the books that are available for purchase.

I do indeed hope that your presentation went well.

Regards,
Peter J. Stewart-Hay

Peter,

I had forgotten the posting too. I guess I may have read it and thought that since his need was general that it would be easy to find with a little effort. I assume this is the spindle shaft seal company that is in Rock Island, IL.

They were a distributor of Viking pumps and we used lots of them at one time in the magnet wire industry and like they say on their web site, not just any seal would work as the solvents used in the various enamels and varnishes would literally eat them unless you used carbon.

I think it is great that he (and others) has shared some of his work with colleges. More people need to do that if we expect to further advance manufacturing.

Still more details as to what was wanted might have resulted in more responses.
