Facility And Method For Treating The Surface Of An Elongate Product For The Purpose Of Wire Drawing

Abstract: The invention relates to a facility (5) for treating a moving elongate product (3) made of metal having a surface coated with a layer of oxide, the facility comprising a stripping assembly (7) comprising a group (11, 11a, 11b) of lasers (13) that are distributed around the elongate product (3), a control unit (9) for acquiring information relating to the elongate product (3), the control unit (9) being configured to determine operating parameters to be dictated to the stripping assembly (7) in order to strip the oxide layer and ablate a layer of metal having a predetermined thickness, and so as to obtain a predetermined surface roughness of the elongate product (3), by comparing same with the experimental results pre-recorded in the control unit (9) and dictating the operating parameters to the stripping assembly (7).
