stainless steel stamping die

With the continuous development of the stainless steel processing industry, stamping molds are becoming increasingly important. When stamping stainless steel, it is important to choose the right material. Different die materials have different characteristics, so they need to be selected according to specific conditions. Let’s introduce in detail which materials are best for stainless steel.

1. Hard alloy steel

Carbide steel is a very common die material with good machinability. Carbide steel has high hardness and strong wear resistance, and is very suitable for stamping high-hardness stainless steel. At the same time, carbide steel also has good strength and toughness, and can withstand larger loads and stamping pressures.

At present, carbide steel has been widely used in electronics, automobiles and other industries, and has been favored by many companies.

2. High speed steel

High-speed steel is another common die material that has better high-temperature resistance than carbide steel. High-speed steel also has relatively good hardness and toughness and can withstand larger loads and stamping pressures. In addition, the processability of high-speed steel is also relatively good, and the processing difficulty of stamping dies is relatively low.

High-speed steel has a wide range of applications and is suitable for stamping medium-hardness stainless steel, carbon steel and other materials.

3. Cold work mold steel

Cold work die steel is a material suitable for stamping low carbon stainless steel. It has high hardness and wear resistance, as well as good fatigue resistance and strength. Cold work die steel has better processability and can produce higher precision dies.

Compared with other die materials, cold work die steel has a lower price and is suitable for companies that do not have high requirements for die.

Conclusion When stamping stainless steel, it is very important to choose the appropriate die material. Different die materials can be selected according to different application scenarios and requirements. Carbide steel, high-speed steel and cold work die steel are all relatively high-quality materials and are suitable for different die needs. Of course, in addition to choosing the appropriate material, you also need to pay attention to the processing technology and quality of the die to ensure the accuracy and durability of the die.
