The size and length effects of an inclusion on multi-pass copper shaped-wire drawing were investigated. For this purpose, an experimental investigation on optimal die half-angle was conducted. Based on experimental data of optimal die half-angle, wire and inclusion deformations, drawing and hydrostatic stress of copper shaped-wires that contain an inclusion were calculated by two-dimensional fi...

The wire drawing process is extensively used in manufacturing components such as rivet, screw, welding wire, etc. In this work, an analytical of the wire drawing process has been considered for two-stage operation. ABAQUS commercial Finite Element code has been used to obtained the drawing force. Then, The analytical and experimental results been compared. The results show a good agreement for...

We introduce an approach for predicting the behaviour of a machine during a production cycle. Typical data analysis methods assume that continuous behaviour is (fully) observed. This assumption is unrealistic as monitored machines are often interrupted and restarted at irregular points in time. We study the resulting problem, propose a solution and report on a use-case in wire drawing.

the effects of steel wire patenting process parameters on very fine interlamellar spacing in the pearlitic steel wire were investigated and the optimized condition of the process was achieved. in this work, the initial nanopearlitic structure was obtained in a 0.72 wt% carbon steel wire before the wire drawing process. the results were the minimum interlamellar spacing of 35 nm and maximum ulti...

the static strain aging is a phenomenon that can change the mechanical properties of low carbon steels. thus, the static strain aging behavior of low carbon steel wires after drawing process is studied. to do so, the wires are austenitized at different temperatures and cooled in different rates. then the wires are drawn and aged at a specific temperature and time. before and after aging of each...

In conventional wire drawing the diameter of a wire or rod-like workpiece is reduced by drawing it through a conical die. Dieless drawing of a wire or a rod is realized by a localized heating of the work piece. As heat source for example an induction coil can be used. Immediately after having passed the heating zone the work piece is cooled to restrict the heat input on very small region. By ap...
