We offer a comprehensive range of precision metal processing equipment, including straightening, cold drawing, pointing, chamfering, cutting, thread rolling machines, and drawing dies, tailored for tube, bar, and wire materials across diverse industries.
Choosing a cold drawing machine depends less on maximum pulling force than on the material, starting and finished dimensions, reduction per pass, product length, required drawing speed, and production volume. FangRong supplies cold drawing machines from 2T to 3000T, covering hydraulic, chain, rack-pinion, crawler, combined continuous, and multi-line configurations for both tube and solid bar drawing.
The FR-2T to FR-3000T range covers applications from small precision components to large-diameter tube and heavy-section bar production. Depending on the machine configuration, the equipment can process tubes up to φ1800 mm and solid bars up to φ500 mm, with drawing speeds from 1 to 30 m/min and effective strokes up to 14 m. Machine selection should be based on the actual drawing load and reduction schedule rather than nominal machine capacity alone, because material grade, cross-sectional reduction, lubrication, die geometry, and whether a plug or mandrel is used all affect the required pulling force.
Hydraulic cold drawing machines are suitable when high and controllable pulling force is required, particularly for large-diameter tubes, heavy sections, stainless steel, and other high-strength materials. FangRong hydraulic models range from FR-10T to FR-500T, with main cylinders up to φ630 mm and hydraulic system pressures up to 31.5 MPa.
Chain cold drawing machines are a practical choice for repeated production of tubes and bars where a fixed mechanical drawing speed and robust continuous-duty operation are more important than highly variable force control. FangRong chain machines cover approximately 1T to 300T pulling force, with main motors up to 400 kW.
For applications requiring faster positioning and programmable drawing cycles, the CNC rack-pinion cold drawing machine provides a 50 kN pulling capacity and drawing speeds up to 40 m/min. For high-precision tube and bar applications, FangRong also offers four-roller rolling drawing machines with drawing forces of 300–750 kN and speeds of approximately 12–13 m/min, designed to improve dimensional consistency, surface quality, and straightness, with straightness capability down to ≤0.2 mm/m under suitable process conditions.
Where productivity is the priority, double-chain multi-line cold drawing machines can draw three or more tubes or bars simultaneously. FangRong's multi-line configurations extend to 160T, allowing multiple workpieces to be processed in one cycle and reducing handling time per piece.
FangRong cold drawing machines can be configured for different drawing processes, including tube sinking, fixed-plug drawing, floating-plug drawing, moving-mandrel drawing, and solid bar drawing. The correct configuration depends on whether the process needs to control outside diameter, inside diameter, wall thickness, or simply reduce the cross-section of a solid bar.
For example, a tube requiring tight control of both ID and wall thickness normally needs a plug or mandrel rather than simple sinking. High-strength alloys may require lower reductions per pass and greater drawing force, while softer copper or aluminum products may be better suited to higher production speeds. These process differences should be considered before selecting machine tonnage.
For manufacturers looking to reduce manual handling between processes, FangRong can integrate pointing, cold drawing, straightening, cutting, and chamfering into an automated production line. This configuration is particularly useful for high-volume production of fixed-length tubes or bars, where separate machines would otherwise require additional transfer, alignment, and intermediate inspection.
The control system can incorporate PLC automation, servo or DC drives, Siemens or Inovance control components, and heavy-duty ZQ-series to ZFY800 gearboxes, depending on the machine configuration. Electrical and mechanical components are selected according to the required drawing force, speed, stroke, and duty cycle rather than using one standard configuration for every application.
Before requesting a quotation, manufacturers should provide the material grade, starting OD and wall thickness or bar diameter, finished dimensions, product length, required reduction, target production output, drawing method, and required straightness or surface quality. These parameters allow the required drawing force, die arrangement, machine stroke, speed, and auxiliary equipment to be evaluated together.
FangRong has manufactured metal forming equipment since 1998 and operates two production facilities in Guangdong with a combined area of more than 10,000 m². Its cold drawing equipment is used for materials including carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, aluminum, titanium, nickel alloys, and other special metals. Products are supplied to customers in more than 60 countries and regions, with applications ranging from automotive and HVAC components to aerospace, energy, electronics, and precision tube and bar production.
If your production involves both drawing and downstream processing, FangRong can also provide matching Straightening Machines, Pointing Machines, cutting and chamfering equipment, and drawing dies to build a complete metal processing line.
The Four Rollers Rolling Drawing Machine is designed for cold drawing guide rails, sliders, and special-shaped steel sections. With drawing forces of 300–750 kN and speeds up to 13 m/min, it processes S55C, 20CrMo, and similar steels with tensile strength up to 900 MPa. The dual-chain drive, pneumatic clamping carriage, adjustable die holder, and rigid C-frame ensure stable drawing and straightness of ≤1 mm/m. PLC touchscreen control supports precise speed adjustment. Suitable for construction machinery, automation equipment, and precision steel sections.
The Inverted Coil Drawing Machine combines continuous drawing and coiling for copper, aluminum, stainless steel, and carbon steel tubes or wires. With drawing speeds up to 400 m/min and tube diameters of 3–25 mm, it reduces cutting, handling, and intermediate storage. Coil drums range from 250–2200 mm. Frequency-controlled speed regulation maintains stable drawing tension and surface quality. Suitable for HVAC, refrigeration, electrical, automotive, and medical tubing production.
The FR-50 Automatic Rack-Pinion Cold Drawing Machine is a 50 kN servo-driven drawbench for precision tube and bar drawing. It uses rack-and-pinion transmission with a 30 kW Inovance servo motor, providing stable speed control and reduced vibration. Suitable for copper, aluminum, stainless steel and carbon steel applications.
The Automatic Crawler-Type Cold Drawing Machine to Coil is designed for continuous drawing and coiling of small-diameter metal tubes. With drawing forces of 10–50 kN and speeds up to 100 m/min, the crawler-track drive provides stable pulling and continuous operation. It handles tube diameters of φ5–40 mm and feeds drawn material directly into the coiler, reducing cutting, handling, and storage. Suitable for copper, aluminum, stainless steel, and carbon steel tubes used in HVAC, automotive, electrical, and general engineering.
The Busbar Hydraulic Drawing Machine is designed for cold drawing copper and aluminum busbars, improving dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and hardness.
