Capabilities

The Niehoff GE 160 is a slide-free drawing machine designed for precision wire and rod processing. It handles diameters from 5mm to 15mm with drawing speeds ranging from 6m/min to 24m/min, making it suitable for consistent, controlled material reduction. The manual gearbox allows operators to adjust speed based on material type and desired finish.

Industries & Uses

Wire drawing machines like this are essential in metalworking, automotive supply, electrical cable manufacturing, and fastener production. Businesses use them to reduce wire diameter, improve surface finish, and create specific material properties for downstream applications. The compact footprint (approximately 2.6m × 2.2m) makes it practical for mid-sized production facilities.

What to Check When Buying

When evaluating this machine, prioritize the gearbox condition—the 2019 overhaul with new gears and bearings is a significant advantage. Request complete maintenance records and documentation to verify service history. Inspect the drawing dies and spindle bearings for wear, and confirm the external lubricating oil pump operates smoothly. Ask about the machine's output consistency and any recurring maintenance issues. On-site inspection is highly recommended to assess overall condition and test basic operations.
