Abstract

The effect of the strain rate on the texture and strength characteristics of electrical copper is analyzed using an industrial experiment on low- and high-speed wire drawing. The mechanical properties of the product are determined. The strength of the wire drawn at a high speed is found to be about 20 MPa higher than that of the wire drawn at a low speed. Metallographic analysis shows no differences in the wire structures, and texture analysis reveals differences in the behavior of dominant texture components. The directions of the dominant texture components are found to rotate near the periphery of the workpiece (i.e., at the workpiece surface). The solution of the drawing problem by the finite element method demonstrates an analogous rotation of the principal elongation directions.
