Wire drawing with “Copra”
The new version of “Copra FEA RF Wire Rolling” now also includes a feature to simulate shaped wire drawing. The software considers the nonlinear plastic and elastic material properties, friction and relaxation between the drawing dies and delivers results within a few minutes. Annealing steps can also be included if wanted.
