Problems solved by technology

Later, people tried to coat a layer of brass on the outside of the brass wire, and adjusted the ratio of copper and zinc in the coated brass, which solved the problem of excessive zinc consumption to a certain extent, but due to the presence of α in the coated brass , β, β′, γ and other phases, and the post-heat treatment cannot greatly change its structure, there will be a variety of phases in disorder, resulting in poor stability during cutting, difficulty in improving the precision of the workpiece, and the cutting speed cannot reach the ideal Effect

Abstract

The invention relates to an efficient multilayer composite electrode wire, which comprises a core part and a wrapper wrapped on the core part. The electrode wire is characterized in that: the core part is provided with a brass wire core formed by performing diffusion annealing, water cooling and continuous drawing and continuous retracting treatment on a brass core wire, and the metallographic structure of the brass wire core is mainly an alpha-phase structure; and the wrapper is a diffused alloy layer formed by performing diffusion annealing, water cooling and continuous drawing and continuous retracting treatment on a copper metal coating and a zinc metal coating which are sequentially plated on the brass core wire, and the metallographic structure of the diffused alloy layer is mainly a beta-phase structure. The electrode wire is prepared by the following steps of: plating the copper and zinc metal coatings on the core wire, then performing diffusion annealing, water cooling and continuous drawing and continuous retracting treatment, drawing, and thus obtaining the electrode wire. Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that: the cutting efficiency of the efficient multilayer composite electrode wire is remarkably higher than that of a common galvanized wire, the comprehensive cutting cost of the efficient multilayer composite electrode wire is lower than that of the common galvanized wire, and the efficient multilayer composite electrode wire has good universality.
