Introduction

Copper Coated M.S. Wire is used for Sub- Area welding process [SA] and Metal Inert Gas [MIG] welding process. Due to rapid growth of Industrial activities in Large/Medium and Small Scale Sector, the demand of copper coated M.S. Wire is in increasing order as the product is consumable.

Market Potential

Due to inherent characteristics of Sub-Area welding process and Metal Inert gas welding process, these welding processes are widely used in developed technology. The product is widely demanded by railways, Ship building, chemical fertilizer, cement, petrochemical industries. There is demand in production of water pipe line also. The advantages of S A AND MIG welding is lesser labour cost, lesser rejection and perfect welding, hence the market

Basis and Presumptions

1. The project is based on single shift of 16 hrs per day and 300 working days in a year.

2. The required land and buildings needed are included in the project cost.

3. Three years required for achieving full capacity utilization.

4. Labour wages have been considered as per present market trend.

5. The rate of interest has been considered as 12% for calculation purpose.

6. The plant and machinery are indigenously available.

Implementation Schedule

The project implementation will take a period of one year from the date of approval of the scheme. Break up of time required in each activity is shown below:

Technical Aspects
Process of Manufacture

Mild steel wire rod of 6 or 8mm dia available in coil bundle is cleaned by pickling. Pickling process involves dipping of M.S. Coil first in acid bath followed by dipping in Alkali Solution and then in water tank. The cleaned wire rod is drawn on heavy duty drum type wire drawing M/C. After annealing the drum wire is again drawn up to desired gauge. The wire is then passed through copper coating tank for coating of copper layer as per standard requirement.

Pollution Control

The pollution created during the production of copper coated M.S. Wire. However, the building shed should be constructed as per parameters laid down for industrial buildings .

Quality Control and Standards

The strict quality control is required for production of copper coated M.S. Wire. The incoming material should be properly tested as per relevant standard. During the production stage, dimensional test must be carried out. Chemical solution of copper coating bath should be checked at regular intervals.
