Claims16
A method for the coating of a wire with abrasive particles in a metal matrix in a batch coating apparatus, comprising winding the wire onto a product carrier in a plurality of layers, said layers in a spaced relationship from a next layer, and coating the wire in a coating apparatus in batch mode, wherein said product carrier comprises wire carriers comprising carrier rods around which wire is wound, adjacent turns of wire being spaced apart from one another, and contacting the wire carriers at points of the carrier rods around which the wire is wrapped, the wire carriers adapted in size and arranged in space to form a series of nested wire carriers spaced apart from each other.
A method for the coating of a wire with abrasive particles in a metal matrix in a batch coating apparatus, comprising winding the wire onto a product carrier, and coating the wire in a coating apparatus in batch mode, further comprising
- a) selecting as a product carrier, a product carrier comprising a plurality of open reels of increasingly greater size, each open reel comprising a plurality of removably mountable parallel carrier rods arranged in a geometric pattern;
- b) mounting a first plurality of carrier rods to form a first open reel and winding wire around said first open reel;
- c) mounting a plurality of carrier rods outside of said first open reel and in spaced relation to said first open reel to form a second open reel and winding wire around said second open reel;
- and
- d) optionally mounting a subsequent plurality of carrier rods outside of prior open reels and in spaced relation to the last open reel formed, and winding wire around said subsequent open reel;
- and
- e) optionally repeating step d) one or more times.
