In this study, a method to find the optimal intermediate die geometry for the multi-stage drawing process for the rectangular rod from a round bar is proposed and a program using the proposed method is developed. On the stage of the design of the intermediate die geometry, the virtual die was constructed using the initial billet as a inlet of the drawing die and the final product as a exit of that and the virtual die was divided by the number of pass. Divided die was transformed into the rectangular one which is the intermediate die geometry for the multi-stage rectangular drawing process. In order to verify the application of the proposed method on the real industrial product, the drawing of the rectangular rod from a round which composed two stage has been performed and simulated by the three dimensional rigid plastic finite element method.

In cold forming processes, due to high working pressure action on the die surface, failure mechanics must be considered before die design. One of the main reasons of die failure in industrial application of metal forming technologies is wear. Die wear affects the tolerances of formed parts, metal flow and costs of process etc. The only way to control these failures into devlop methods which allow prediction of die wear and which are suited to be used in the design state in order to optimize the process. In this paper, the forming propcesses that involve cold forward extrusion and wire drawing were simulated by rigid plastic finite element method and its output were used for predicting die wear by Archard wear model. The simulation results were compared with the measured worn dies.
