3 Overview of Today s Working Materials Grades with good ductility Copper and copper derivatives Aluminum Mild steel Stainless steel Grades with less ductility Cold rolled steels Spring steels Hard materials Grades with higher abrasive nature Electrical steels Ceramics Hard metals Common Work Materials 3

6 Introduction to Tooling Failure Types Tool Steel Failure Mechanisms 6
7 Failure Mechanisms in Cold Work Wear (abrasive or adhesive) Results in a material loss and is related to the sheet material type, the application and the process conditions Abrasive Wear Adhesive Wear Abrasive Wear Material is lost because of friction between tooling and work material This is a predictable failure Solutions for Abrasive Wear Abrasive wear resistance is normally base on hardness and / or carbide volume of the tooling material Tooling material Surface Treatments 7
8 Wear Resistance is a function of Volume fraction and type of primary alloy carbide in the heat treated microstructure: Chromium carbide (M 7 C 3 ) HRC Molybdenum carbide (M 6 C) HRC Tungsten carbide (M 6 C) HRC Vanadium carbide (MC) HRC Distribution of primary carbides Size of primary carbides (severe abrasion only) Hardness, quality and type of heat treatment Adhesive Wear Normally referred to as micro-welding of tooling material to work material. Tooling material is pulled out. Is often misdiagnosed as abrasive wear. Solutions to Adhesive Wear: Tooling material, improving chipping resistance. Pull-out 8
9 Chipping Is related to the stresses in the process and the fatigue resistance of the tool material. Chipping D2 Uddeholm Vanadis 4 Extra SuperClean Plastic Deformation Occurs if the process stresses are higher than the compressive strength of the tool steel. 9
10 Cracking Occurs when the process stresses, and presence of an existing crack result in a stress level higher than the toughness of the tooling material. Galling Is a physical and/or chemical adhesion of the work material to the tool surface. The severity of galling depends on the surface finish and chemical composition of the tool steel and work material. Proper use of surface treatments can also reduce galling. 10
11 Method for Steel Selection in Cold Work Applications Identify the dominating failure mechanism. Select a tool steel with better resistance to the dominating failure mechanism. Goal: Reliable and economical production: The choice will depend on the steel s inherent capabilities and its production method. Today s Tool Steel Options 11
12 Conventional / Ingot Steel Production Melting Shop EAF Ladle Furnace Vacuum-De-Gassing Uphill Casting ESR Re-Melting Stock Machining Heat Treatment Forging Plant Rolling Mill Customer Inspection & Testing Tool Steel Production: Hot Working High Reduction Forging Breakdown of the solidification structure to obtain a fine-grained austenite and freedom from carbide networks. 12
13 D2 Structures: Can be very different from each manufacturer Tool Failure: D2 Punch made from standard D2 premature failure Starting material: bar rd. 33 mm 13
14 Carbide Distribution Controlled Carbide distribution with Bohler K110 Standard Grade Bar rd. 33 mm, Direction: Longitudinal / Magnification: x 100 The cold work tooling environment: Conventional Grades The most popular tool steels for blanking; trim, forming and calibration dies: AISI A2: 5 % Chromium steel, air hardening, general purpose, hardness is HRC. AISI D2: 12 % Chromium steel, air hardening, high wear resistance, hardness of HRC. These grades are not always suitable for demanding coldwork applications. Not easy to salvage when chipping, wear, or galling take place. 14
15 The Goal: Extend the life of the tool first by minimizing failure modes like chipping so that we can address the wear failure modes. Tool material with carbide stringers Time for crack initiation Time for crack propagation Tool lifetime Tool with poor surface finish Tool with EDM-surface layer Conventional Tool Steel Production with Secondary Melting Electroslag remelting The small amount of liquid metal solidifies much faster than a large steel melt which gives: Less time for carbide growth during solidification. improved homogeneity and smaller carbides. The remelting takes place under a liquid active slag layer which removes inclusions. Consumable Molten Slag ESR ed Ingot Water Cooled Mold Remelting under protected atmosphere 15
16 Benefits of Re-Melted Steel More consistent structure in the steel More consistent to machine. Easier and more consistent to heat treat. Much higher toughness and more uniform in all directions. Permits new grade development Allows for high temperature tempered grades to replace older versions. Better stability in operation. Easier to coat. Greater versatility in the types of coatings to use. More uniform wear rates, with less chipping. Quick overview of BU Tooling Materials for High Strength Work Materials Conventional Produced and Remelted Bohler W360 Isobloc : An ESR produced very high toughness hot work tool steel, high temperature tempered to HRC. Uddeholm Caldie : An ESR produced high toughness medium wear resistance tool steel. With a typical working hardness of 58-62HRC and high temperature tempering. Readily weldable and coatable. Bohler K340 Ecostar /Isodur : A medium toughness good wear resistance tool steel. With a typical working hardness of 58-64HRC and high temperature tempering. Use instead of M2, M4, D2. 16

23 Putting it all Together Critical questions..just as with your work materials Does your tool steel source produce the grades they supply to you? Do you know how the steel is being produced? Do they address your concerns and provide corrective action when you need it? Do they create new grades to address your current and future concerns?
