Direction: A 10 mm diameter annealed steel wire is drawn through a die at a speed of 0.5 m/s to reduce the diameter by 20%. The yield stress of the material is 800 MPa.

  1. Neglecting friction and strain hardening, the stress required for drawing (in MPa) is

    Diameter of steel wire
    di = 10 mm
    v = 0.5 m/sec
    Final diameter of wire
    df = 0.8 × di = 8 mm
    (drawing stress)

    σd = σyt × lndi²
    df

    = 800 × 2ln10= 357 MPa
    8

    Correct Option: B

    F = K ln (R) Ai.

    F = 2.722 MN

    Correct Option: B

    F = K ln (R) Ai.

    F = 2.722 MN
