The results of studies on the drawing of copper and steel wires using pulsed current in the deformation zone are presented. The analysis of their structure and physicomechanical properties is given. As a result, the drawing forces of copper and steel wires are reduced by 30-35%, the electrical resistance is reduced by 18-20%, a more perfect axial texture appears, the ductility of the wires increases compared to warm drawing. In the steel wire, the α-phase content sharply decreases, which is predominantly released in the surface layer by several microns. We propose methods for the modernization of rolling equipment for technology using pulsed current. The efficiency of using a high-density pulsed current on a rolling mill for producing stainless steel from an initial billet of 2 mm thick and 100 mm wide 0.3 mm thick tape without intermediate annealing and oxide film is shown.
