Zirconia ceramic wire wheel

User question: What are the pain points of traditional metal or plastic wire wheels in the fields of wire processing, fiber drawing, precision winding, etc?
Answer: Traditional wire wheels are prone to wear, rust, static electricity, and pollution, leading to surface damage, high wire breakage rates, low production efficiency, and frequent replacement of parts, resulting in high maintenance costs.
User question: What problems can zirconia ceramic wire wheels solve?
Answer: Zirconia ceramic wire wheels, with their ultra-high hardness, wear and corrosion resistance, insulation and anti-static properties, can significantly reduce wire surface scratches, lower wire breakage rates, and extend service life. They are especially suitable for high-precision and high-speed wire processing environments, helping users improve production efficiency and reduce overall costs.

Zirconia ceramic wire wheels are made of high-purity zirconia (ZrO ₂) material through precision sintering and grinding, which has excellent mechanical properties and chemical stability. Mainly used for:
-Fiber optic cable manufacturing: fiber drawing, winding, and guiding wheels to avoid surface damage to glass fibers
-Precision electronic wire processing: winding of enameled wire, alloy wire, etc., tension control wheel
-Medical device wire production: scenarios requiring high cleanliness such as surgical sutures and guide wires
-High end textiles and composite materials: guidance and winding of high-performance fibers such as carbon fiber and aramid

Product advantages: Why choose zirconia ceramic wire wheels?

1. Ultra high wear resistance
   Hardness ≥ HRA85, wear resistance more than 10 times that of metal wheels, significantly extending service life.
2. Excellent corrosion resistance
   Resistant to acid and alkali, antioxidant, suitable for humid and corrosive environments, does not rust or contaminate wires.
3. Insulation and anti-static
   High volume resistivity to avoid electrostatic adsorption of dust and protect sensitive wires (such as optical fibers and electronic wires).
4. High surface smoothness
   After polishing, the Ra can reach ≤ 0.2 μ m, greatly reducing the friction coefficient with the wire and preventing scratches.
5. Lightweight and high rigidity
   Low density, high strength, suitable for high-speed operation scenarios, energy-saving and consumption reducing.

Customer Application Case (Anonymous)

1. A certain fiber optic manufacturing enterprise
   The original stainless steel wire wheel needs to be replaced every 3 months, and there are occasional scratches on the surface of the optical fiber. After switching to zirconia ceramic wire wheels, there was no significant wear after 18 months of use, resulting in a 5% increase in fiber yield and a 60% reduction in annual maintenance costs.
2. High end enameled wire manufacturer
   In the production of fine copper wire (wire diameter 0.03mm), traditional wheels are prone to electrostatic adsorption of impurities. After adopting customized zirconia ceramic multi groove wheels, the wire breakage rate decreased by 70% and the production line speed increased by 20%.
3. Medical guide wire processing factory
   The requirements for cleanliness and precision are extremely high, and the pollution-free and disinfectant resistant characteristics of zirconia ceramic wheels perfectly match the production environment, with a product qualification rate increased to 99.8%.
