Process of Cold Heading Quality Steel Wire Rod（CHQ Wire Rod）:

Pickling & coating 

The hot-rolled coil or wire rod passes through the pickling line, where hydrochloric acid solution is used to remove surface scale for clean surface finish before further processing and to form a lubrication film on the surface to reduce the coefficient of friction in the drawing and cold working process. The Gantry Crane moves between the tank during the process.

Intermediate drawing 

This process which produces half-finished products for the following stage improves the spherodized ratio during spheroidized annealing. The wire drawing machine composed of Supply Stand ,Drawing Drum, Take up stages produces half-finished coil products. 

Spheroidized annealing 

This annealing process with the purpose of obtaining spheroidized carbides facilitates the cold works. Once inserted in the heat treatment furnace, the process takes place in the order of controlled heating up to a given time, temperature and furnace atmosphere, along with maintenance at such temperature during a certain period and cooling controlled in accordance with the purpose intended. This process is controlled by automatic heat cycle.

Skin pass 

The wire drawing machine produces half-finished coils where products meet the customers' needs in terms of the size and mechanical properties of products.

Like cold rolling, cold drawing is performed at room temperature, but instead of producing a flat object like a coke can,cold drawing makes steel into the form of a wire like the spokes of a wheel or a paper clip.  To start the process, Steel is usual hammered and rolled so that it can be fit through a die;a tool that turns the steel mass into a wire.  The room temperature steel is pulled through the die which reshapes it into a thinner shape while maintaining the same volume.  It is similar to the idea of syrup flowing out of a bottle through a tube in that it changes shape but not volume,but instead of squeezing the metal, it is pulled out.  In order to get the wire down to the right diameter,it usually requires more than one pass through different dies.
