ABSTRACT:
An apparatus consistently imparts a desired cast characteristic and a desired helix characteristic to drawn wire. A set of interchangeable rollers imparts the cast characteristic to the wire in a first plane, and a helix control assembly imparts helix control by shifting the wire leaving the rollers into a second plane. The helix control assembly includes a rotatable sheave and a movable block. The plane in which the sheave resides and to which the wire is shifted is manually controlled by a handwheel. The rollers and the helix control assembly are supported by a common support. The rollers may be mounted in respective universal base plates, a selected one of which is received in an opening in the frame, thereby greatly reducing tooling and maintenance costs and providing improved flexibility in production. Moreover, the rollers include movable rollers interspersed with fixed rollers, wherein the movable rollers may be individually adjusted on either side of the center line of the fixed rollers.
