Extension of the lifespan of hot forging molds: Examples of mold processing treatment *Case study collection available

Significantly improves the fatigue strength of the material! Reduces heat crack occurrence through nanocrystallization.

Here is a case study on extending the lifespan of hot forging molds. After removing the discharge abnormal layer through OX-FSP treatment, we further enhance fatigue strength. The surface becomes nanocrystalline, leading to an expected extension of lifespan. Additionally, the special dimples enable a stable supply of release agent, improving mold release. This imparts high residual stress and high hardness. 【Effects】 ■ Durability shot count: Improved by approximately 150-200% ■ Suppression of heat crack occurrence due to nanocrystallization → Significant extension of mold lifespan ■ Stable supply of release agent due to special dimples → Improved mold release and extended mold lifespan ■ High residual stress and high hardness imparted → Significant improvement in mold fatigue strength ■ Removal of discharge machining altered layer → Elimination of crack initiation points and extension of lifespan *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
