Several major technological properties of metal stamping tools

1. Forgeability:

 Metal stamping tools have low hot forging deformation resistance, good plasticity, wide forging temperature range, low tendency of forging cold cracking and precipitation of network carbides.

2. Annealing processability:
The spheroidizing annealing temperature range is wide, the annealing hardness is low, the fluctuation range is small, and the spheroidizing rate is high.

3. Machinability:
Large cutting amount, low tool loss, low surface roughness.

4. Sensitivity to oxidation and decarburization:
Good anti-oxidation performance when heated at high temperature, slow decarburization speed, insensitive to heating medium, and low tendency to pit

5. Hardenability:
Metal stamping tools have uniform and high surface hardness after quenching.
After quenching, a deeper hardened layer can be obtained, and it can be hardened by using a mild quenching medium.
