The process design of a multi-pass steel profile drawing depends mainly on the experience of the industrial experts. Therefore, in the actual industrial field, a systematic design method is required to improve the efficiency of process design. Development of such a method will result in a reduction in production cost and time. In this study, a process design system that can be installed in AutoCAD V14 was developed. By using the developed design system, the drawing load, stress, and strain, among other parameters, can be calculated. In addition, intermediate die shapes can be designed. After the process design, both process information and drawings of dies can be obtained. In order to verify the effectiveness of the developed process design system, it was used to design multi-pass profile drawing processes. Finally, finite element (FE) analysis and a drawing experiment were carried out to verify the designed processes.
