The deformation texture of an electrolytic copper rod drawn to 90% in area reduction was measured by X-ray diffraction and EBSD. The texture in drawn wire changed from a strong <111> + weak <100> texture in the center region to weak {112}<111> and {110}<001> circular textures in the middle and surface regions. The developments of local textures were discussed by the simulation based on the theory of crystal rotation and finite element method.
