Wire drawing requires precise tension control and equipment that maintains accuracy through every pass. Ajax/CECO/Erie Press builds wire drawing equipment for manufacturers who can’t afford slip, stretch, or stoppage in their production lines. Explore the systems below to find equipment that keeps your line moving and your results exact.
Wire Drawing Equipment for Precise Production Across Industrial Applications
Wire drawing equipment supports high-volume production across industries where consistency and control directly impact product quality.
Our systems operate in settings that require tight dimensional tolerance, high-speed reduction, and exact feed regulation. Some of our most common industrial applications include:
Electrical and Power Transmission: producing copper and aluminum wire for conductors, busbars, and connectors
Automotive Manufacturing: forming precision wire used in control cables, fasteners, and engine components
Construction and Infrastructure: creating structural wire for reinforcement, fencing, and support systems
Aerospace and Defense: manufacturing alloy wire for critical fastening, shielding, and assembly operations
Telecommunications: drawing fine-gauge wire used in cable systems, signal transfer, and electronic assemblies
These systems support production lines that operate under pressure, where even slight variations can disrupt throughput or compromise the quality of final components.
Functionality That Supports Accurate Wire Reduction
Wire drawing equipment must apply consistent force through every die pass while maintaining alignment, feed control, and surface integrity.
Ajax/CECO/Erie Press systems use direct-drive mechanisms, real-time monitoring, and rigid guide assemblies to preserve dimensional accuracy. We built ever
