Part 1: Characteristics of complete wire drawing apparatus Part 1 describes the wire drawing machine, instrumentation and oscillatory apparatus designed to establish the effects of applying oscillatory energy to the wire drawing process. A theoretical consideration of the vibration of the equipment is included and compared with experimental data. Tests were performed on a 3000 lbf bull-block and the oscillatory energy was supplied in a longitudinal mode from a 3000 lbf electro-hydraulic oscillator. Equipment was designed to measure drawing force, drawing torque, amplitude of die and drum oscillation, and drawing speed. Frequencies of die oscillation in the range 0–125 Hz were studied with amplitudes up to 0.070 in peak to peak. A study of process parameters, such as natural frequency of the system, damping of the bull-block drive, torsional oscillation of the drum, and die assembly inertia, showed that the analysis was in good agreement with experimental data and that it can be used to predict the effect of oscillations on the forces and torques acting during oscillatory wire drawing. Part 2 presents experimental data obtained from mild steel, hard aluminium, stainless steel and hard copper. Results show that there is no reduction in the peak drawing force and negligible reduction in the coefficient of friction. The results also confirm that oscillatory drawing is a mechanical process of straining and unstraining the drawn wire, and that the reduction in mean force can be determined by a mechanism of force superposition.

Dieless wire drawing is the process of causing a reduction in a wire diameter without the use of conventional wire drawing dies. The wire, axially loaded with a force, is heated to an elevated temperature to initiate plastic deformation. The mechanics of this novel drawing process and a theoretical analysis of the deformation are discussed in this paper. The results of an experimental drawing programme carried out with mild steel wire at temperatures between 400 and 900°C are also presented. Mathematical models were developed and used to describe and predict the process deformation and both the stress and temperature distribution profile along the workpiece. A machine was designed and manufactured to facilitate an experimental programme of dieless drawing. The machine permitted continuous drawing of wire, while the reduction ratio, drawing load and temperature were automatically controlled using a personal computer. A finite element (FE) model of the wire was developed, and the results obtained from the FE analysis show good agreement with those obtained from both the experimental work and the mathematical modelling. Results obtained confirm that a complicated interdependence of the process parameters exists during the dieless drawing process.

The Wire

High-strength cable-steel bridge is the “lifeline” of steel structure bridges, which requires high comprehensive mechanical properties, and cold-drawing is the most important process to produce high-strength cable-steel bridge. Therefore, through the ABAQUS platform, a bridge wire drawing model was established, and the simulation analysis on the process of stress strain law and strain path trends for high-strength bridge steel wire from Φ 12.65 mm by seven cold-drawing to Φ 6.90 mm was conducted. The simulation results show that the wire drawing the heart of the main axial deformation, surface and sub-surface of the main axial and radial deformation occurred, with the increase in the number of drawing the road, the overall deformation of the wire was also more obvious non-uniformity. In the single-pass drawing process, the change in the potential relationship of each layer of material was small, and multiple inflection points appeared in the strain path diagram; the change in the seven-pass potential relationship was more drastic, which can basically be regarded as a simple superposition of multiple single-pass pulls.

The Wire

Torsion bars are used in automotive engineering as well as in other industrial applications. Such elements are produced by bending cold drawn wires. In conventional drawing processes tensile residual stresses occur near the surface of the wire. Small bending radii, which are required in limited assembly spaces, result in component failure due to reduced formability. Additional operations such as heat treatment or shot peening are necessary to influence the residual stress of the wire and to improve the dynamic stability of the torsion bar. The aim of the research is to reduce tensile residual stresses near the surface of the wire in order to eliminate process steps and to enhance formability. Therefore, a forming technology is developed by using a modified drawing die geometry on the basis of gradation extrusion. Finite element simulation is used to investigate the influences of element geometry, number of elements and process modification on the resulting residual stresses after wire drawing of a steel alloy. The results are evaluated and compared with the conventional wire drawing process. Furthermore, the requirements for the design of an experimental test device will be outlined as well as the measurement of the residual stresses by using X-ray diffraction.

The Wire

The efforts to increase the operating speed of the wire drawing process play a crucial role regarding the industrial productivity. The problem is closely related to various features such as heat generation, material plastic deformation, as well as the friction at the wire/die interface. For instance, the introduction of specific lubricants at the interface between the die and the wire may efficiently reduce the friction or in another context, induce a difference in friction among different regimes, as for the case of hydrodynamic lubrication. The present study systematically explores various aspects concerning the drawing process of an electrolytic tough pitch copper wire. To be specific, the drawing speed, drawing force, die temperature, lubricant temperature, and stress distributions are analysed by using experimental as well as numerical approaches. The obtained results demonstrate how the drawing stress and temperature are affected by the variation of the friction coefficient, die geometry, and drawing speed. It is argued that such a study might help in optimizing the operational parameters of the wire drawing process, which further leads to the improvement of the lubrication conditions and product quality while minimizing the energy consumption during the process.

Multiparameter Analysis

The essential purpose of the work was to determine the phenomena that occur in multipass wire drawing process of high carbon steel wires with high speed in hydrodynamic dies and to assess their influence on moulding the wire properties after the drawing process. The multiparameter analysis of the issues has involved the theoretical dissection of the phenomena arising in high speed wire drawing process in hydrodynamic dies with the usage of the finite element method supported by the experimental multipass drawing process in industrial conditions. On the basis of numerical analysis the influence of drawing speed on wire temperature was estimated. For final wires the investigation of mechanical properties, topogrhaphy of wire surface, the amount of lubricant on the wire surface, the pressure of lubricant in hydrodynamic dies were determined.

Wire Resistance

Split-die technique was adopted to find the coefficient of friction in wire drawing directly from experiment. Simple dynamometers with wire resistance strain gages were used for measuring separating force and drawing force instead of cumbersome equipment used by former researchers. Reasonably good results were obtained. The effect of the land or parallel portion in the die on the coefficient of friction was indicated in the results. Its importance was emphasized. A theoretical equation of the drawing stress with the effect of land considered was derived. Using the coefficient of friction obtained by the split-die method, drawing stresses were calculated from the derived equation. A comparison of the theoretical and experimental drawing stresses was made. Results were tabulated and plotted. It was concluded that including the land in the analysis of wire drawing is important and further research in analyzing the shear deformation must be pursued in order to get a close agreement between theoretical analysis and experimental results.

This paper presents an experimental and numerical analysis of damage evolution in AA2011 aluminum alloy wires drawn under different scenarios. To this end, load-unload tensile tests were firstly carried out in order to characterize the degradation of the mechanical response in every cycle where the experimental results show a bilinear damage relationship in terms of the effective plastic strain. Therefore, a modification of the classical Lemaitre model is proposed in this work in order to reproduce bilinear paths of damage with the addition of only two parameters that can be directly obtained from the material characterization. Then, the damage predictive capability of this new experimental-based model is assessed in numerical simulations of the drawing process in one and two passes (considering for this last case the sequential and tandem configurations) where the computed predictions are compared with the corresponding experimental data showing a good agreement between them.
