Future tools and molds are made of steel and cast iron

In general, mold trajectories are primarily generated by using your own system. The preparation of data will still be seen as an important part of creating value chains in the near future. Although expecting more processing with five coordinates including three coordinates and two adjustment coordinates, as before, three-coordinate machining accounts for almost two-thirds of the entire application. Therefore, the trend of using ball end mills and toroidal milling cutters does not change. Therefore, it is still important to use standard tools.

The dimensional accuracy of the mold is the same as before, mainly requiring future tools and molds to be made of steel and cast iron. Therefore, hard processing is becoming more and more important. The tool material should be adapted to each machining task, that is to say the use of all the best tool materials between and. However, it can be ascertained that cemented carbide (coated or uncoated) occupies a clear dominant position. Further developments in the field of hard machining and high-speed machining are considered to be equally important in the future. The obvious trend is direct milling. Therefore, there are more milling machines than electric machining machines in the procurement plan for the next few years.

In order to significantly reduce data preparation costs and higher data modification costs, there is an urgent need for a closed chain between users and manufacturers. In the next few years, international competition and the price pressures associated with it will cause some special problems. It is believed that getting the highest quality talent is the most important because it is believed that complex molds will not be fully automated and unattended in the near future. However, it is still possible to clearly see the corresponding development direction. It is optimistic about the future. From these important opinions and suggestions, it can be clearly seen that a tool and mold manufacturing in Germany is now and in the future surging in this trend and is also positioned in international competition. Here, we should first strengthen our position by continuously monitoring the competition and by taking a better understanding of the user and taking measures as early as possible. German tool and mold manufacturing will continue to strive to shorten the delivery period, based on its high-quality products, and achieve the same excellent position in the international market as before.

Super Duplex Steel Tube

UNS S32750 & UNS S32760

Super duplex stainless steels are generally more complex, more highly alloyed materials with PREN (Pitting Resistance Equivalent number) = 40.0 and offer even higher strength and corrosion resistance making them suitable for very demanding applications such as offshore marine engineering.
