Innovative Self-Annealing Microrolling: Copper Rod Breakdown Greener Solution
Continuus-Properzi has provided innovative technology for more than 75 years that has allowed the end-users of our equipment to be ‘greener’, in order to reduce their CO2 emission, well before being ‘green’ was in fashion. This began with Properzi’s disruptive technology for continuous casting and direct rolling of nonferrous metals, which completely changed the production method for nonferrous rod by making it safer, more economical, and above all less energy intensive thereby reducing CO2 emission.

Review on Solventless Magnet Wire Lubrication by Means of Wax-Impregnated Textile Yarn
Mechanics of Magnet Wire Handling – Imagine an enameled wire, which is pressed to a plane with a load Fz, the friction force to overcome in order to move the wire is a function of Fz. For dry, solid sliding surfaces, the friction force is independent of the speed v of the movement, which is also true for wires lubricated with wax or wax-like materials. Lubrication with oil or grease results in viscous floating, which is dependent on the speed of movement.
