- The order of the strain rate configuration for the second pass affects the micro-region martensitic transformation behaviour of the steel wire. The first pass had a larger area reduction rate, while the later pass was smaller and more α’-Martens occurred inside the wire. The smaller former pass inhibited the α’-martensite phase transformation.
- The temperature of the drawing contact surface was significantly higher than that of the centre area, and the drawing equivalent strain rate also followed the same law. The unevenness of the local drawing strain caused a greater single-pass drawing strain rate. Thus, there was more surface deformation heat when the steel wire was formed in the mould, which significantly suppressed the transformation of austenite to martensite on the steel wire surface.
- The difference in the radial element distribution of the steel wire was not the primary factor that affected the uneven transformation of martensite inside steel wires. Instead, the inhomogeneous thermal distribution of the deformation during the drawing process of the steel wires and the grain refinement that affects the austenite SFE were the main reasons.
- In the production of steel, reducing the area reduction of the first drawing pass will be effective and efficient during the process of producing austenitic wire with a low level of magnetism. On the contrary, enlarging the area reduction of the first drawing pass will also result in the detectable magnetism of wires.
