We wish to produce a 1-mm-diameter copper wire having a minimum yield strength of 60,000 psi
and a minimum % elongation of 5%. We start with a 20-mm-diameter rod. Design the process by
which the wire can be drawn. Include important details and explain.

Step 2 of 7

Determine the percent cold work required to achieve the required minimum 60000 psi yield
strength as follows:

Refer to the above figure, the determined percent cold work required is at least 40%.

Calculate the percent cold work required to reduce the diameter from 20 mm to 1 mm as follows:

Here, represents the initial diameter, represents the final diameter, represents the
initial diameter, and represents the final diameter.

Substitute for and for to the above expression.

Refer to the figure, the maximum allowable cold work is only but the required cold work is
.

So, a series of cold work which has a value greater than followed by an anneal
cycles are required.

To minimize the production time, cold work will be considered and Drawing operation will
performed to reduce the diameter of the wire.

Step 3 of 7

Determine the first intermediate diameter after performing cold work as follows:

…… (1)

Substitute for , for to the equation (1).

Perform annealing operation to restore ductility as after cold work the ductile nature get
reduced.

Step 4 of 7

Determine the annealing temperature after first cold work operation as follows:

Here, represents the recrystallization temperature and represents the melting

temperature.

Substitute for (The melting point of copper) to the above expression.

So, the annealing temperature required to restore ductility is .

Comment

Step 5 of 7

Determine the second intermediate diameter after cold work as follows:

Substitute for , for to the equation (1).

Perform annealing operation at to restore ductility as after cold work the ductile
nature get reduced.

Comment

Step 6 of 7

Determine the third intermediate diameter after cold work as follows:

Substitute for , for to the equation (1).

Perform annealing operation at to restore ductility as after cold work the ductile
nature get reduced.

Comment

Step 7 of 7

Determine the percent cold work required to achieve the desired final 1 mm wire diameter as
follows:

Thus, of the cold work is required to reduce the diameter from 1.79 mm to 1 mm.

So, following the above procedure the desired dimension and properties can be achieved.
