THE APPLICATION OF ULTRASONICS TO WIRE DRAWING.

Abstract

Hardness and tensile strength measurements were performed on titanium, copper and iron wire drawn with and without ultrasonic radiation. The results show that less work-hardening was induced during deformation when radiation was present. Temperature measurements made at the die bearing surface disclosed only a minor temperature rise for a given set of conditions. The continuous drawing equipment has been placed in operation and performs satisfactorily.
