The invention provides a multi-sample 
combination method for detecting 
crystal orientation distribution. The method comprises the following steps: (1) selecting a plurality of samples at different parts of a steel plate; (2) 
processing the samples into a plurality of rectangular steel sheets in the same specification, stacking the rectangular steel sheets in a 
pole figure measurement sample rack and fastening, 
polishing and corroding the rectangular steel sheets to form R.D section samples; (3) measuring three imperfect pole figures (110), (200) and (211) of the R.D section samples; (4) computing an ODF (Orientation 
Distribution Function) figure by utilizing the conventional ODF 
software and acquiring Phi, Phi1, and Phi2 of a 
Bung coordinate 
system or Theta, Phi and Psi of a Roe coordinate 
system; and (5) utilizing the formulas (a) and (b) of the 
Bung coordinate 
system or the formulas (c) and (d) of the Roe coordinate system to compute the texture. The multi-sample 
combination method can reflect the 
crystal orientation condition of the samples in the whole thickness and has strong representativeness; for a laboratory with conventional ODF 
analysis software, specially planning or 
purchasing ODF 
software for computing the cross sections combined by dozens of samples is not needed, so that the use is convenient; and for a laboratory without the ODF 
analysis software, the only requirement is to plan or purchase the conventional ODF 
software, so that the cost is lower.
