摘要：Such schemes of plastic deformation as bending, torsion, tension, compression etc. are considered to be the basic schemes for metal processing methods. Each of these types of deformation has specific influence on microstructure and mechanical properties of the processed metal. For the optimal result of plastic deformation impact on metal structure and properties the mechanism of plastic processing should follow the definite requirements. The effect of different kinds of deformation on medium carbon steel wire was studied using several methods: scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, dynamic hardness testing. The obtained results can be used in the design of combined methods of deformation processing of carbon steel.
