A new magent wire manufacturing process based on electrodeposition

The new magnet wire manufacturing process based on electrodeposition named "MEDIS" was developed by us and this unique process has the following merits: (1) The finished wires have excellent electrical properties due to better eccentricity and fewer pin-holes. (2) Air pollution can be minimized by the use of the water dispersion. (3) Heat cost is reduced because of one coating and one baking system. (4) Film thickness can be easily controlled by varying the applied voltage without a wiper-die. A 32-wire-line plant has been commercially operated for production of "MEDIS" wives that has been used successfully in electrical equipment and appliances for more than two years. New "MEDIS" wires having class F~H thermal life are now under development. In the near future, we expect that the "MEDIS" process will be applied to rectangular wires and aluminum conductors.
