steel for injection molding machines
steel for injection molding machines
(OP)
hello friends,
I have one problem so i would like to ask you something.
I'm searching a steel to be used for injection molding machines.
Here the specs:
Form: bar max 45 mm diam.
It has to be resisting at impact of hot material 800°C (today we have to use a coating of the die).
This temperature is reached only at the moment of injection, not permanently.......
Hardness of coating 1200 vickers.
Must have good resilience too.
Today we must use a coating. However we want to use only a steel without coating....
Do you have a designation to suggest ?
..or any additional help..
Thank you very much

I don't know how close you can get, but call Crucible.
The CPM grades have some great properties, CPM 15V is about as hard as a tool steel can get.

There'll surely be something there you can use, but depending on the specifics of your application, a coating may still be necessary.
