It was found that the drawing stress and the work-hardening rate of wires were significantly reduced by applying current pulses in drawing process. The work-hardening behavior of the multi-courses drawing deformation can be well described by Hollomon formula σ=κΕn. With the application of current pulses in drawing deformation, the work-hardening exponents of H0Cr17Ni6Mn3 steel wires and 1Cr18Ni9 stainless steel wires were reduced by 33% and 45%, respectively, and their work-hardening coefficients were reduced by 41% and 47%, respectively. It was also found that the work-hardening coefficient of wires was reduced with the increment of the frequency of current pulses, while the work-hardening exponents of both steels were insensitive to the pulsing frequency.展开更多

Using these machines, a wire drawing test for four different coating materials and two different lubricants was performed as the reduction ratio increased from 10% to 30%. Materials used for a substrate in this study are plain carbon steel (AIS11045) and ultra low carbon bainite steel. To compute the friction coefficient between the coating layer of wire and the surface of die lbr a specific lubricant, a series of finite element analyses were carried out. SEM observations were also conducted to investigate the surface defects of wire deformed. Results show that the behavior of drawing force varies with the lubricant-type at the initial stage of drawing. The powder-typed lubricant with a large particle causes the retardation of lull lubrication on the entire contact surface and the local delamination of coating layer on the wire surface. As the flow stress of a substrate increases, the delamination becomes severe.展开更多

In order to promote the practical application of the technology, the ultrasonic vibration system was designed and manufactured by using the classical dynamics method. The dynamic characteristic of the ultrasonic vibration system was analyzed. The performance parameters of the system were measured on the resistance analyzer. The oxygen-free brass wire drawing with ultrasonic vibration at the approximate speed of practice was carried out on the LH-200/17 drawing machine. By comparing the wire drawing through ultrasonic vibration and the conventional wire drawing, the experimental results show that the drawing process with ultrasound was steady at the high drawing speed of 1 126 mm/s, while the broken wire often occurs at the speed of 980 mm/s during the conventional wire drawing; the ultrasonic vibration reduced the drawing force by 7 %; and the ultrasound also reduced the uneven deformation of the wire and greatly improved the surface quality of the wire. The research results provide theoretical and experimental support for the practice and application of the wire drawing by ultrasonic vibration.展开更多

They are widely used in the fields of automobiles, civil engineering and construction, machines and many other industries. An application of lamellar microstructure for developing ultra-high strength steel wires was studied and discussed. Based on the experimental results, the relationships between the strength increase and microstructure development during the cold wire drawing were studied to reveal the strengthening mechanism. As cold drawing proceeds, the wire strength extremely increases, the microstructure changes from large single crystal lamellar structure to very fine polycrystalline lamellar one which has nano-sized grains, high dislocation density and amorphous regions. From the results obtained, it is concluded that heavy cold drawing technique is an effective method for lamellar composite to get high strength wires. Furthermore, formation process of the best microstructure for producing the ultra-high strength wires was also discussed.展开更多

In this study, the effect of stress profile on the texture evolution of the CPAW was systematically investigated by combining the numerical simulation and the microstructure observation. The results show that the tensile stress at the wire center promotes the formation of 〈111〉 texture, whereas the shear stress nearby the rim makes little contribution to the texture formation. Therefore, the 〈111 〉 texture at the wire center is stronger than that in the surface layer, which also results in a higher microhardness at the center of the CPAW under axial loading.2017 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of The editorial office of Journal of Materials Science & Technology.展开更多

By online monitoring the shape di- mensions of both the deformation zone and its adjacent zone by machine vision, the initial and terminative positions of deformation were dynamically identified during dieless drawing, and the global monitoring and online closed-loop control of the deformation zone were achieved. The dieless drawing process was systematically carried out on NiTi shape memory alloy wires. It is shown that the deformation measurement method of interframe displacement can track the axial displacement of the wires, but this cannot be achieved by traditional machine vision. The initial and terminative positions of deformation can be accurately identified by this method. The proposed rectifying control technology can effectively decrease the wire diameter fluctuation during dieless drawing, that is, the standard deviation of the wire diameter fluctuation could be decreased fi'om 0.30 to 0.08 mm after three passes of dieless drawing, indicating that the control system has a good rectifying ability.展开更多

The results show that the typical microstructures in the wires mainly include extended planar dislocation boundaries, a small fraction of twins and some dislocation cells sharing boundaries parallel to drawn direction. Besides the typical microstructures, 9R structure configurations were observed in the wires. The formation of 9R polytypes may be caused by the coupled emission of Shockley dislocations from a boundary.展开更多

During high drawing, the phenomenon that wire is embrittled and die is stuck can be formed by the notable temperature rise. In this paper, based on theory of plastic deformation work , considering friction heat generation and variable physical coefficients, the mathematical model of temperature rise of high speed drawing is established and the computer program to analogy the whole process of drawing is compiled. Also the process of wire drawing on a few of alloys are calculated theoretically.

Wire-drawing tests were carried on with this equipment for TiC/Al2O3 ceramic wire-drawing die. Effect of lubrication medium and drawing velocity on the drawing force was investigated. The wear mechanisms of the ceramic drawing dies were investigated. Worn bore surfaces of the ceramic drawing dies were examined by scanning electron microscopy. The results show that lubricant media have great influence on the drawing force. The drawing force is the smallest when a grease lubricant is used. But alteration of drawing velocity has scarcely any influence on the drawing force. Detailed observations and analyses of the die wear surface reveal that the most common failure of the ceramic drawing die is the wear in the invariable zone and bearing zone owing to the greater press stresses. Abrasive and adhesive wear are found to be the predominant wear mechanisms for ceramic drawing die.展开更多

The critical temperature for recrystalization is determined at about 300 °C. The average grain size grows from 7 up to 125 nm when annealing temperature rises from300 to 500 °C.

Diamond coatings were fabricated by straight hot filament chemical vapor deposition (CVD) passing through the interior hole of the drawing die using a mixture of hydrogen and acetone as source gases. The performance tests were made under real drawing condition. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used for the study of coating wear after die service. The coating wear appears on two regions of the reduction zone: one is near the entrance where the contact begins, and the other is at the end of the reduction zone. FEM simulation was made for calculating the von Mises stresses distribution on the coating and substrate during the drawing process. The present work was of great practical significance for the improvement of drawing performance of diamond-coated drawing dies.展开更多

The influences of multiple electropulses processing on the microstructure and properties of the hardened steel wire were investigated. Samples treated by direct current under the same current density as that in multiple electropulses processing were carried out for contrast analysis. The results show that the optimized parameters of multiple electropulses processing will be facilitated to increase the nucleation rate and slow down the growth rate of recrystallized grains. Consequently, massive superfine grains of micro and sub-micro scale could be found in the steel wire. Thereby, the elongation was significantly enhanced with a relatively small strength reduction in comparison with as-received cold-drawing steel wires. Outstanding mechanical properties of steel wire were obtained.展开更多

A direct simulation about the mechanical behaviors and microstructural evolution of pearlitic lamellae was presented. A representative volume element (RVE) containing one pearlitic colony was established based on the real transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation. The deformation of pearlitic colony during tension, shear and wire drawing were successfully simulated. The numerical results show that this metallographic texture leads to a strong anisotropy. The colony has higher yielding stress when the la mellar direction is parallel and perpendicular to the tensile direction. The lamellar evolution is strongly dependent on the initial direction and deformation mode. The formation of typical period shear bands is analyzed. In the wire draw ing, the pearlitic colony at the sub surface experiences a complex strain path: rotation, stretching along the die sur face, and rotation back.展开更多

The effects of heating power, the distance between cooler and heater as well as feeding speed on the diameter, the temperature field, and the deformation region profile of the wires were investigated. The results indi-cated that each processing parameter exhibited both lower and upper limits of stable deformation based on the criterion of stable deformation with the diameter fluctuation of ±0.05 mm. Both the temperature and its gradient of the deformation region increased with increasing heating power under stable deformation, but decreased with an increase in feeding speed. As the distance between cooler and heater increased, the temperature of the deformation region increased and the slope of the deformation region profile decreased. The processing limit map of sta-ble deformation exhibited a closed curve and the unstable deformation consisted of wire breakage and diameter fluctuations.展开更多

Diamond coatings were fabricated by straight hot filament chemical vapor deposition (CVD) passing through the interior hole of the drawing die using a mixture of hydrogen and acetone as source gases. The performance tests were made under real drawing condition. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used for the study of coating wear after die service. The coating wear appears on two regions of the reduction zone: one is near the entrance where the contact begins, and the other is at the end of the reduction zone. FEM simulation was made for calculating the von Mises stresses distribution on the coating and substrate during the drawing process. The present work was of great practical significance for the improvement of drawing performance of diamond-coated drawing dies.
文摘Specially designed wire-drawing equipment with multiple electropulse generator was introduced. The influences of multiple electropulses processing on the microstructure and properties of the hardened steel wire were investigated. Samples treated by direct current under the same current density as that in multiple electropulses processing were carried out for contrast analysis. The results show that the optimized parameters of multiple electropulses processing will be facilitated to increase the nucleation rate and slow down the growth rate of recrystallized grains. Consequently, massive superfine grains of micro and sub-micro scale could be found in the steel wire. Thereby, the elongation was significantly enhanced with a relatively small strength reduction in comparison with as-received cold-drawing steel wires. Outstanding mechanical properties of steel wire were obtained.

文摘During cold drawing of pearlitic steel wire, the lamellar structure becomes gradually aligned with the draw ing axis, which contributes to the ultra high strength. A direct simulation about the mechanical behaviors and microstructural evolution of pearlitic lamellae was presented. A representative volume element (RVE) containing one pearlitic colony was established based on the real transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation. The deformation of pearlitic colony during tension, shear and wire drawing were successfully simulated. The numerical results show that this metallographic texture leads to a strong anisotropy. The colony has higher yielding stress when the la mellar direction is parallel and perpendicular to the tensile direction. The lamellar evolution is strongly dependent on the initial direction and deformation mode. The formation of typical period shear bands is analyzed. In the wire draw ing, the pearlitic colony at the sub surface experiences a complex strain path: rotation, stretching along the die sur face, and rotation back.

文摘Tin bronze wires were produced by dieless drawing. The effects of heating power, the distance between cooler and heater as well as feeding speed on the diameter, the temperature field, and the deformation region profile of the wires were investigated. The results indi-cated that each processing parameter exhibited both lower and upper limits of stable deformation based on the criterion of stable deformation with the diameter fluctuation of ±0.05 mm. Both the temperature and its gradient of the deformation region increased with increasing heating power under stable deformation, but decreased with an increase in feeding speed. As the distance between cooler and heater increased, the temperature of the deformation region increased and the slope of the deformation region profile decreased. The processing limit map of sta-ble deformation exhibited a closed curve and the unstable deformation consisted of wire breakage and diameter fluctuations.
