1. Product Overview


Hot forging dies for stainless steel are specifically engineered tools essential for shaping stainless - steel materials at elevated temperatures. These dies are designed to withstand the extreme conditions of hot forging, ensuring the production of high - quality stainless - steel components with precise dimensions, excellent mechanical properties, and a smooth surface finish.

2. Product Materials

High - performance Hot - work Tool Steels


  • H13 Steel: Widely used in the production of hot forging dies for stainless steel. It offers outstanding thermal fatigue resistance, which is crucial as the die experiences repeated heating and cooling cycles during the hot - forging process. H13 also has high toughness and good wear resistance, enabling it to endure the high - impact forces and abrasion associated with forging stainless steel.

  • SKD61 Steel: This steel is known for its excellent heat - resistance, hardenability, and fine - grained structure. The fine grains contribute to better machinability during the die - making process and also result in a more uniform hardness distribution in the die, enhancing its overall performance.

Carbide Inserts


In areas of the die that are subject to particularly high wear, such as the regions where the stainless - steel material makes initial contact or where complex shapes are formed, carbide inserts may be incorporated. Tungsten carbide inserts are favored for their extremely high hardness and wear resistance, which can significantly extend the die's service life in these critical areas.

3. Product Processing Process

Design Phase


  • Customer Requirement Analysis: Our team engages closely with customers to understand their specific needs for stainless - steel components. This includes details such as the shape, size, tolerance requirements, and production volume.

  • CAD Modeling: Using advanced Computer - Aided Design (CAD) software, a detailed 3D model of the hot forging die is created. The design takes into account factors like the flow of the stainless - steel material during forging, the necessary draft angles for easy part ejection, and the overall structural integrity of the die.

  • Simulation: Through specialized simulation software, the hot - forging process is simulated. This helps to predict potential issues such as metal cracking, uneven filling, or excessive stress concentration. Based on the simulation results, the die design is optimized to improve the forging quality and efficiency.

Material Preparation


  • Cutting: The selected hot - work tool steel is cut to the appropriate size and shape according to the design specifications. This may involve sawing, shearing, or other cutting methods.

  • Heat Treatment: The cut material undergoes a series of heat - treatment processes. Annealing is first performed to relieve internal stresses and improve machinability. Subsequently, quenching and tempering are carried out to achieve the desired hardness, toughness, and thermal fatigue resistance.

Machining


  • CNC Machining: High - precision Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining centers are used to perform operations such as milling, turning, and drilling on the die. This ensures accurate shaping of the die cavity and other features, with tight tolerances maintained.

  • EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining): For complex shapes or fine details that are difficult to achieve through conventional machining, EDM is employed. It uses electrical discharges to erode the material and create the required geometry.

Surface Treatment


  • Polishing: The die surface is carefully polished to achieve a smooth finish. This not only improves the surface quality of the forged stainless - steel parts but also reduces friction during the forging process, facilitating the flow of the material.

  • Coating: A coating, such as titanium nitride (TiN) or chromium nitride (CrN), may be applied to the die surface. These coatings enhance the wear resistance and release properties of the die, further extending its service life.

Quality Inspection


The completed die undergoes a comprehensive inspection using a variety of measuring instruments. Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) are used to verify dimensional accuracy, while hardness testers ensure that the die meets the required hardness standards. Only dies that pass all quality checks are approved for use.

4. Product Usage Scenarios

Automotive Industry


  • Hot forging dies for stainless steel are used to produce various automotive components, such as exhaust systems, engine parts, and suspension components. The high - strength and corrosion - resistant properties of stainless steel make it an ideal material for these applications, and our dies ensure the precise forging of these critical parts.

Aerospace Industry


  • In aerospace manufacturing, stainless - steel components require high precision and reliability. Our hot forging dies are capable of producing parts such as turbine blades, fasteners, and structural elements with the necessary accuracy and mechanical properties to meet the strict standards of the aerospace industry.

Construction and Architecture


  • For architectural applications, stainless - steel components like handrails, brackets, and decorative elements are often forged using our dies. The ability to create complex shapes and achieve a smooth surface finish makes our dies suitable for producing aesthetically pleasing and structurally sound construction components.

5. Product Usage Precautions

Pre - heating


Before starting the hot - forging process, the die must be pre - heated to an appropriate temperature. This helps to reduce thermal shock when the hot stainless - steel material comes into contact with the die, preventing cracking and extending the die's service life. The pre - heating temperature should be determined based on the die material and the forging requirements.

Lubrication


Use high - quality forging lubricants specifically formulated for stainless - steel forging. Proper lubrication reduces friction between the die and the stainless - steel material, improving the surface finish of the forged parts and reducing wear on the die. The lubricant should be applied evenly on the die surface before each forging operation.

Operating Parameters


Adhere to the recommended operating parameters, including the forging temperature, pressure, and speed. Exceeding these parameters can cause premature wear or damage to the die, while operating below the recommended levels may result in incomplete forging or poor - quality parts.

Regular Inspection


Regularly inspect the die for signs of wear, cracking, or deformation. Pay particular attention to critical areas such as the die cavity, edges, and corners. If any issues are detected, take immediate action, such as repairing or replacing the damaged parts.

Cooling and Storage


After use, allow the die to cool gradually in a controlled manner. Avoid sudden cooling, as it can cause thermal stress and damage to the die. When storing the die, keep it in a dry and clean environment to prevent corrosion.


By following these guidelines, users can ensure the optimal performance and long - term reliability of our hot forging dies for stainless steel.
