Abstract

In this research, the wire drawing process with flat roller dies is investigated. A prototypal apparatus is developed to conduct experimental tests on such a process and analyze the influence of main roll drawing parameters (e.g., incoming wire diameter, forming rolls diameter, thickness reduction, and friction conditions) on geometrical characteristics of flattened wires. A finite element model (FEM) is developed to simulate the deformation of the wire during the process. Within the entire range of experiments, a good agreement between experimental data and numerical results is found which allows validating the FE model. A further observation from the experimental program and numerical simulations is that a complicated dependence of the lateral spread of wire and width of contact area on process parameters exists during wire drawing with roller dies.
