  • the gap between the rollers through which the wire material passes in the first roller group 11 is set such that the push-in amount sequentially decreases from the upstream side to the downstream side.
  • the gap between the rollers through which the wire material passes is also referred to as a “roller interval”.
  • Each roller of the second roller group 12 and the third roller group 13 is made of metal and is not driven by external power.
  • the interval between the rollers of the second roller group 12 is set such that the push-in amount sequentially decreases from the upstream side to the downstream side, and the final push-in amount in the second roller group 12 is set to zero.

  • the second roller group 12 is configured such that the plurality of rollers in the upper row are integrally fixed and are rotatable about the roller at the end of the upper row as an axis.
  • the position of the roller at the end of the upper row is determined in advance so that the last push-in amount in the second roller group 12 becomes zero, and the position of the roller is not readjusted unless the wire material is changed.
  • the angle formed by a straight line connecting the centers of the rollers in the upper row of the second roller group 12 and a straight line connecting the centers of the rollers in the lower row of the second roller group 12 is referred to as a “placement angle ⁇ x”.

  • the push-in amount sequentially decreases from the upstream side to the downstream side and reaches zero.
  • the push-in amounts in the third roller group 13 are all zero.

  • a driving roller 22 is driven by obtaining power energy from a motor 31 illustrated at the lower right in FIG. 4 .
  • the rotational energy generated by the motor 31 is transmitted to a shaft 27 via a timing pulley 30 , a timing belt 29 , and a timing pulley 28 .
  • the position of the driving roller 22 can be adjusted as described above, and in FIG. 4 , the position can be adjusted in the Z direction by a shaft sliding screw 25 and a shaft sliding box 24 .
  • a universal joint 26 is interposed between the shaft 27 and the driving roller 22 so as to cope with this position adjustment.
  • a procedure for determining the push-in amounts in other words, a procedure for determining the interval between the rollers, in the first roller group 11 and the second roller group 12 will be described. Since all the rollers of the third roller group 13 have a push-in amount of zero as described above, the roller interval is the same as the defined dimension of the wire material, and thus a description thereof will be omitted here.
  • the first roller group 11 is adjusted first, and then the second roller group 12 is adjusted.
  • the adjustment described below may be executed by, for example, an operator or may be calculated by a computer.
  • a strain corresponding to “tensile strength” that is the maximum stress in the wire material is specified from the composition of the wire material.
  • a physical property table or a database can be used.
  • the product between the specified strain and a predetermined ratio, for example, “0.6” is calculated and is referred to as a “target strain”.
  • the push-in amount of each roller in the first roller group 11 is determined so that the push-in amount sequentially decreases and the “target strain” is obtained when the first step is completed.
  • the result of calculation using simulation software may be used, or the results of one or a plurality of experiments using the shaping device 1 may be used.
  • the position of the first roller group 11 can be determined according to a predetermined policy.
  • the predetermined policy includes, for example, fixing the position of a lower roller of the first roller group 11 and adjusting the position of an upper roller to set a roller interval to the determined value.
  • the first roller group 11 is set at the determined position of the first roller group 11 , and the process proceeds to the next determination processing of the push-in amount of the second roller group 12 .
  • the push-in amount in the second roller group 12 is determined by the placement angle ⁇ x.
  • the optimum placement angle ⁇ x is determined, for example, by the operator changing xx in a plurality of ways and actually measuring the processing result of the second step. Specific examples will be described below.
  • FIG. 5 is a conceptual diagram of a test result for determining the placement angle ⁇ x.
  • the ordinate represents the amount of warpage
  • the abscissa represents the placement angle ⁇ x.
  • the placement angle ⁇ x is represented by eight angles S 1 to S 8 , but these eight angles are merely examples, and the number of angles may be larger or smaller than eight.
  • An amount of warpage on the positive side of the Z-axis means warpage toward the positive side of the Z-axis
  • an amount of warpage on the negative side of the Z-axis means warpage toward the negative side of the Z-axis.
  • FIG. 5 shows two independent test results. The plotted triangles show a case where the wire material output from the first step is largely biased to the positive side, and the plotted squares show a case where the wire material output from the first step is largely biased to the negative side.
  • the straightening of the warpage in the second step does not work much and the value is still a large positive value in a case where the placement angle ⁇ x is the small angle S 1 .
  • the amount of warpage decreases as the placement angle ⁇ x increases, and in the example illustrated in FIG. 5 , the amount of warpage is substantially zero when the placement angle ⁇ x is the angle S 4 .
  • the placement angle ⁇ x is further increased from the angle S 4 , the amount of warpage turns to increase and continues to increase.
  • the operator determines the angle S 4 corresponding to the smallest absolute value of the amount of warpage as the placement angle ⁇ x.
  • the straightening of the warpage in the second step does not work much and the value is still a large negative value in a case where the placement angle ⁇ x is the small angle S 1 .
  • the amount of warpage decreases as the placement angle ⁇ x approaches zero, and in the example illustrated in FIG. 5 , the amount of warpage is substantially zero when the placement angle ⁇ x is the angle S 5 .
  • the placement angle ⁇ x is further increased from the angle S 5 , the amount of warpage continues to increase and becomes a large positive value.
  • the operator determines the angle S 5 corresponding to the smallest absolute value of the amount of warpage as the placement angle ⁇ x.
  • the above-described embodiment may be modified as in the following ⁇ 1> to ⁇ 5>, and ⁇ 1> to ⁇ 5> may be arbitrarily combined. That is, all the modifications of ⁇ 1> to ⁇ 4> may be added to the configuration of the embodiment, or any one or more modifications of ⁇ 1> to ⁇ 5> may be added.
  • the reduction of the warpage is insufficient and a disadvantage that the stability is lacking as compared with the above-described embodiment, but the adjustment of a roller position becomes easy.
  • these disadvantages may exist as long as the required accuracy is satisfied.
  • the method of determining the push-in amount in the second roller group 12 described in the above-described embodiment is merely an example.
  • the position of each upper roller of the second roller group 12 may be individually adjustable, and the amount of warpage may be measured while changing the position of each roller little by little to determine the position of the roller corresponding to the smallest amount of warpage.
  • the number of times of roller position adjustment and the number of times of measuring the amount of warpage significantly increase as compared with the embodiment, but there is a possibility that the absolute value of the amount of warpage can be made smaller than that in the embodiment.
