We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Steel Wire",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Inverters have latest MIG brazing software from
Kemppi (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "Inverter based MIG welding power sources and digitally controlled wire feed units supplied to a UK automotove plant's BIW assembly has MIG brazing software for accurate parameter setting".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Strong hose meets recent legistlation from
FlexRite Chemgiene: "Fluids handling hose offers longevity, strength and also reduces fears that the brewing and distilling industries might have over complying new safety regulations".
In June 2007, we covered the news from Motoman Robotics (UK)
concerning its Twin-robot MIG welding cell
- take a look at Robotic MIG beats spot welding on frame assemblies
which says: "A twin-robot MIG welding cell with powered turntable has 1 min TAKT time, around 25% less than an equivalent spot welding cycle to produce automotive rear seat cushion frame assemblies".
Take a look also at the news release from Alcoa Fastening Systems, Eastern Europe demand for fasteners grows,
as well as Draw-wire sensors offer robust, reliable sensing from Micro-Epsilon UK,
and Burnishing accessories finish metals, plastics from Metabo.
