This article presents the results of research on a new combined process involving multi-cycle wire-drawing and subsequent cryogenic cooling after each deformation stage. For theoretical research, modeling in the Deform software was performed. The analysis of temperature fields and the martensitic component in all models showed that for both considered thicknesses, the most effective option is a low deformation velocity and the conduct of a process without heating. The least effective option is to use an increased thickness of the workpiece at an increased deformation velocity and the conduct of a process without of heating to ambient temperature, which acts as a local cooling of the axial zone of the workpiece with an increase in the workpiece thickness. An analysis of laboratory studies on this combined process revealed that in the absence of intermediate heating of a wire between deformation cycles, 100% martensite is formed in the structure. However, if intermediate heating to 20 °C between deformation cycles is carried out, a gradient distribution of martensite can be obtained. And, since the wire has a circular cross-section, in all cases, martensite is distributed symmetrically about the center of the workpiece.
