Wire Drawing Effect on Microstructural and Textural Evolution in Medium Carbon Steel Wires

This study was mainly oriented on the evolution of crystallographic texture as a function deformation resulting from industrial wire drawing process. This, in fact, will make it possible to establish relationship between microstructure and medium carbon steel wires obtained by process used manufacture spring mattresses order minimize loss material satisfy users this product.During study, medium-carbon characterized two analytical techniques. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) monitor backscatter diffraction (EBSD) for analysis. EBSD results are processed with OIM (Orientation Imaging Microscopy) analysis software.
