Bulk Drawing: Engineering Analysis
1. Introduction
In the bulk deformation processes, drawing is an
operation in which the cross section of a bar, rod, or
wire is reduced by pulling it through a die opening, as
shown in Figure 1.

3. Mechanics Phenomenon
There is a tensile stress due to pulling force, but
compression still plays a significant role since the
metal is squeezed down as it passes through the
die opening.

Allowable power
6. Limit of Drawing
Yield stress
Maximum power < Allowable power of a drive system
Maximum stress < Yield stress
If not, material goes into
plastic region & no “drawing”
occurs, just “elongation”
- If done, as Reduction , draw stress also
Entire reduction not done in a single pass (done in steps)

6. Finding Max draw stress & Max reduction (1 pass)
Assumption: no friction, no strain hardening (n=0),
no redundant work (perfectly plastic)

Example
Wire stock of initial diameter = 0.125 in. is drawn
through two dies each providing a 0.20 area reduction.
The staring metal has a strength coefficient = 40,000
lb/in.2 and a strain hardening exponent =0.15. Each die
has an entrance angle of 12o, and the coefficient of
friction at the work-die interface is estimated to be 0.10.
The motors driving the capstans at the die exists can
each deliver 1.50 hp at 90% efficiency. Determine the
maximum possible speed of the wire as it exits the
second die.

From this calculation, the velocity of the second die is the
limiting velocity. That is to say, the velocity of the whole
system should take 3.47 ft /s. As a result,
1. the first operation would have to be operated at well
below its maximum possible speed; or
2. the second draw die could be powered by a higher
horsepower motor; or
3. the reductions to achieve the two stages would be
reallocated to achieve a higher reduction in the first
drawing operation.
