摘要

The value of a drawing die＇s cone angle has great influence on wire drawing. In order to determine the optimum value of a drawing die＇ s cone angle, the plastic deformation power Wi, shear deformation power Wi and friction power of contact surface Wf were calculated using the upper bound theory with a reasonable and movement permitted velocity field according to the related characteristics. Then the relation between half cone angle and unit drawing force was obtained and it was compared with the result with the spherical velocity field. The relative error of the two near the optimal value is only about 0. 26% through comparing with existing calculated results. Finally, in an ABAQUS environment the finite element modal of the wire rod with 12. 5 mm diameter in first drawing pass was established and the axial drawing force in different cone angles was obtained using the ABAQUS/Explicit explicit integration method. The finite element method （FEM） results verify the results using the upper bound theory and this indicated that the velocity field and the relation between half cone angle and unit drawing force reasonable.
