A finite element model of the deformation zone during cold drawing on a movable mandrel has been developed and justified. This makes it possible to determine the state of the metal, calculate its damage and the shape of the die channel, while the configuration of the first transition is taken as the initial one to obtain the second transition.

The step-by-step construction of a computer model of the process of long-angle drawing of profile pipes is considered. The minimum dimensions of the blanks have been determined, the use of which ensures the necessary dimensions of the finished product. The scheme of applying a deforming force with size adjustment in the current state during step-by-step deformation is taken into account. Geometric and finite element models have been obtained that make it possible to find all the parameters of the deformation site during the drawing process.
