PROPRIETARY BÖHLER S590 MICROCLEAN Heat Treatments
- Annealing: 870-900°C (1598-1652°F), the steel needs to be protected against decarburization. Through heating of the material is followed by controlled, slow furnace cooling at a maximum cooling rate of 10°C (18°F) per hour, down to approx. 700°C (1292°F). Final cooling in air.
Stress relieving: 600-650°C (1112-1202°F), slow cooling furnace. To relieve stresses set up by extensive machining or in tools of intricate shape. After through heating, hold in neutral atmosphere for 1 to 2 hours.
Hardening and Tempering: 1075-1180°C (1967-2156°F), salt bath, vacuum. Preheating: 1st stage ~500°C, 2nd stage ~850°C, 3rd stage ~1050°C (for higher austenitising temperature). Austenitising: for cutting applications at higher austenitising temperatures (>1100°C), holding time after complete heating 80 seconds, maximum 150 seconds, to avoid material damage due to overtime. Austenitising: for cold work applications at lower austenitising temperatures (<1100°C). Holding time after complete heating 15 to 30 min. Quenching: oil, warm bath (500-550°C), gas.
540-570°C (1004-1058°F), slow heating to tempering temperature immediately after austenitising. Dwell time in the furnace 1 hour per 20 mm material thickness (at least 1 hour). Slow cooling to room temperature. 3 tempering cycles recommended.
