Estimation of Drawing Force required: F = Yavg Af ln (A0/Af) Yavg = average true stress of material in the die gap; A0 and Af are the original and final cross-sectional areas of the work. • Assumptions: no friction. Drawing Force
If considering the friction, the actual force is larger than provided by follows. • F = YavgAfln (A0/Af) • In addition to the ratio A0/Af, other variables that influence draw force are die angle, and coefficient of friction at the work-die interface. • A number of methods have been proposed for predicting draw force based on values of these parameters. Drawing Force (-continued)
Schey [1] suggested: F = YavgAf (1 + m/tana) fln (A0/Af) where F – drawing force, lb; m– die-work coefficient of friction; a – die angle (half-angle), degree; f – a factor that accounts for inhomogeneous deformation, which is determined as follows for a round cross section: f = 0.88 + D/Lc Where D – average diameter of work during drawing, in; and Lc = contact length of the work with the draw die, in. D = 0.5 (D0 + Df), and Lc = (D0 – Df)/(2sina) The power required in a drawing operation is the draw force multiplied by exit velocity of the work.

The average flow stress (also called the mean flow stress) is the average value of stress over the stress-strain curve from the beginning of strain to the final (maximum) value that occurs during deformation. Stress-strain curve indication location of average flow stress yf in relation to yield strength Y and final flow stress Yf. Flow stress Yavg
The average flow stress is determined by integrating the flow curve equation between zero and the final strain value defining the range of interest. Yavg = Ken/(1 + n) where Yavg – average flow stress, ib/in2; K – the strength coefficient, lb/in2, e - maximum strain value during the deformation process, e= ln (A0/Af); and n – the strain hardening exponent. Finally, we have F = YavgAfln (A0/Af) = [ken/(1 + n)] Afln (A0/Af) Flow stress Yavg(-continued)

Work has to be done to overcome friction. • Force increases with increasing friction. • Cannot increase force too much, or material will reach yield stress. • Maximum reduction in cross-sectional area per pass = 63%. Maximum Reduction per Pass for Drawing

Rolling Mill Configurations Figure 16-4 The effect of roll diameter on length of contact for a given reduction. • Smaller diameter rolls produce less length of contact for a given reduction and require less force to produce a given change in shape • Smaller cross section provides a reduced stiffness • Rolls may be prone to flex elastically because they are only supported on the ends
Rolling Mill Process Assume: Starting volume of rolling work is equal to the final volume of the rolling work: (Volume)0 = (Volume)f t0 W L0 = tf W Lf (t0 W L0)T = (tf W Lf)T (t0 W v0) = (tf W vf) (t0 v0) = (tf vf) tx = tf + (r – y) = tf + r – SQRT(r2 – x2) if x = 0, tx = tf if x = x0, tx = t0, where x0 = SQRT(r2 – y02), and y0 = r + tf – t0 x x0 xf X r y0 y v0 t0 tx vf tf Y
vx = (t0 v0)/tx = (t0 v0)/[tf + r – SQRT(r2 – x2)] Example: r = 10 in, v0 = 1,000 in/min, t0 - 1 in, and tf - 0.5 in. V x Rolling Mill Process X
