Purity Levels & Grades

Manufacturing Process of Vanadium Wire

Our specialized manufacturing process ensures the highest quality vanadium wire with precise dimensions and exceptional purity.

1. High Purity Vanadium Production

Vanadium metal of specified purity is produced using advanced reduction processes, ensuring minimal impurities and consistent quality.

2. Ingot Casting & Preparation

Pure vanadium is melted under vacuum or inert atmosphere and cast into ingots, which are then processed into rod stock for wire drawing.

3. Initial Rod Reduction

Vanadium ingots are hot worked and rolled into rods of appropriate diameter for the initial wire drawing stages.

4. Multi-stage Drawing Process

Rods are drawn through a series of diamond dies with decreasing aperture sizes, gradually reducing the diameter to the desired wire gauge.

5. Intermediate Annealing

Controlled annealing in vacuum or inert atmosphere relieves work hardening between drawing stages, maintaining ductility.

6. Final Heat Treatment & Finishing

Final annealing to achieve desired mechanical properties, followed by cleaning, surface treatment, and spooling or cutting to length.

Quality Control & Testing of Vanadium Wire

Dimensional Inspection

Laser micrometers and optical comparators ensure precise diameter control across wire length.

Chemical Analysis

Glow Discharge Mass Spectrometry (GDMS) and Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) verify purity levels.

Mechanical Testing

Tensile testing, elongation measurement, and hardness testing verify mechanical properties.

Surface Quality

Optical inspection and surface roughness measurement ensure superior surface finish.
