Hot Work Steel -Special Steel

Property of Hot Work Steel

High strength and hardness: Hot work steel has extremely high strength and hardness, which makes it able to maintain its shape and size stability in high load and high pressure working environment, to prevent mold deformation or damage to affect production.

Good thermal stability: its ability to maintain its normal temperature mechanical properties at high temperatures for a long time. This allows it to maintain its performance even when it comes into contact with hot metal or liquid metal. And the mold surface temperature is extremely high. This prevents plastic deformation and failure.

Excellent heat resistance fatigue: In the process of repeated heating and cooling of hot work molds, thermal stress will be generated, resulting in the formation of mesh cracks (cracks) on the surface of the mold. This steel has good thermal fatigue resistance and can resist the influence of this thermal stress. Thus prolong the service life of the mold.

Wear resistance: Because the hot work die will be subjected to friction and wear, high temperature oxidation corrosion and grinding of iron oxide chips during the working process, it needs to have high hardness and adhesion resistance. This can maintain its good wear resistance.

High hardenability: In order to make the mechanical properties of the entire mold cross-section uniform, it needs to have high hardenability.

Good thermal conductivity: In order to reduce the heat accumulation of the mold and reduce the temperature difference inside the mold, it needs to have good thermal conductivity.

Future Development Trend of Hot Work Steel

Environmental protection and energy saving: With the improvement of environmental awareness and the intensification of the energy crisis, the production of hot work steel will pay more attention to environmental protection and energy saving. By improving the production process and optimizing the material formula, the energy consumption and emissions in the production process are reduced to achieve green production.

High performance: With the continuous upgrading of industrial production and the continuous improvement of product quality, the performance requirements of this die steel are becoming higher and higher. Future development will pay more attention to improving the comprehensive properties of materials. Such as strength, hardness, thermal stability, wear resistance and so on. This can meet the increasingly stringent industrial production needs.

Intelligent production: The use of advanced intelligent manufacturing technology and information means to improve its production efficiency and quality stability. Through intelligent control and management, the production process can be optimized and automated. This can reduce production costs and improve market competitiveness.

New material development: Explore and develop new die steel materials to meet the needs of special fields. Such as the development of high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, wear resistance and other more excellent materials. This can meet the challenges of tooling in extreme working environments.
