Various top-down processes of severe plastic deformation (SPD) like equal channel angular pressing, high pressure torsion or accumulative roll bonding are well known for producing ultrafine-grained (ufg) microstructures. The evolution of texture with respect to deformation by an alternative SPD process, called accumulative swaging and bundling (ASB), is shown for ufg Ti/Al wires, suitable for structural materials because of their high specific strength. An Al rod was stacked into a Ti tube and swaged with an area reduction of approximately 20% per pass to a logarithmic strain of 4.3. The resulting composite wire was cleaned, cut into 37 pieces, stacked into a Ti tube (of initial dimension) in a hexagonal arrangement and then swaged again. This procedure can be repeated arbitrarily. The texture gradient of the ASB composites was studied using a X-ray micro diffraction system D8 DISCOVER (Bruker AXS GmbH) equipped with a micro focus X-ray tube IµS and an area detector Vantec-2000. The results will be discussed with respect to processing and grain refinement.
