Can you choose mold materials that match the processed materials and processing methods?

If the mold material does not match the processing method, it can lead to mold wear, damage, corrosion, and product defects! We analyze the parts and propose suitable materials! *Case study collection available.

Our company contributes to solving the problems faced by our customers, such as improving the lifespan of mold parts. We received an inquiry from a customer stating, "We are punching work materials with a carbide punch, but the wear at the tip is severe. We want to extend the lifespan of the punch to increase productivity." In response, we analyzed the worn punch. It was determined that iron was adhering to the punch tip, promoting wear, so we proposed a carbide material that is less prone to iron adhesion. After implementing the countermeasures, despite the new material type having a higher number of strokes, the amount of adhered work material decreased, resulting in less wear. [Case Study] [Before Countermeasure Material] ■ Number of Strokes: 500,000 to 1,500,000 ■ Punch Tip Wear: Approximately 0.8mm ↓ [After Countermeasure Material] ■ Number of Strokes: 1,800,000 ■ Punch Tip Wear: Approximately 0.2mm *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
