This paper deals with an evaluation of the product quality according to intermesh of the roller straightening process of a steel cord. To perform the experiments, a single-layered steel cord with three wires is selected as a target. Intermeshes at inlet and outlet of the roller straightening device are selected as a respective design parameter. According to two intermeshes of the roller straightening device, a design table is generated and experiments were performed. Three assessment items of the product quality, such as the residual torsion, the arc-height and the pre-forming ratio, are measured in each experimental case for the quantitative evaluation of a steel cord. Based on the measured data, the sensitivity of two intermeshes was analyzed and the prediction equation for the product quality of a steel cord was also constructed from the regression analysis.
