PROPRIETARY TENAX 300IM Heat Treatments
- Recommendations to improve tool life: Slowly preheat between 200 and 300°C before starting operation.
Stress relief: Must be performed after machining and before hardening. The relief procedure should involve slow heating to temperatures between 500 and 600°C and oven cooling to a temperature of 200°C. If applied after work, stress relief must be carried out at a temperature 50°C lower than the temperature of the last temper.
Quenching: The heating for quenching must be between 1010 and 1030°C, being recommended 1010°C to increase the toughness and 1030°C to increase the hot resistance. The choice of the ideal temperature must also consider design aspects and details of tool finishing. The heating cycle must provide for pre-heating parts, in accordance with the dimension of the part.Cool in:
a) Pressurized Vacuum Furnace Chamber.
b) Appropriate oil with agitation and heated between 40 and 70°C.
c) Salt bath kept between 500 and 550°C.
Tempering: Tools must be tempered immediately after tempering, as soon as they reach 60°C. Tempering temperatures 550 and 650°C, depending on the desired hardness (curve below). The time of each tempering must be at least 2 hours. For pieces larger than 70 mm, the time must be calculated as a function of their dimension.
Nitriding: It must be carried out after quenching and tempering, as long as the nitriding temperature is at least 50°C lower than the temperature of the last tempering.
