INTRODUCTION As the global demand for renewable energy continues to grow,wind power,as a clean and efficient form of energy, has been widely used. In the field of wind power generation, the selection and use of materials are of great significance to improving the efficiency of wind turbines and reducing costs.Therefore, this article will briefly [...]
TOOL STEEL INTRODUCTION Tool steel is literally understood as steel for making tools, and the actual definition is a general term for steel used to make various cutting tools, measuring tools, cold/hot deformation molds and other tools. All kinds of tool steels have common requirements, such as high hardness, good wear resistance, certain toughness [...]
SEVEN FACTORS FOR CHOOSING TOOL STEEL Known for their unique hardness, tool steels are used in the manufacture of cutting tools such as knives and drills, as well as in hot extrusion, stamping and plastic molds. Although the selection of tool steel seems to be very simple, this process requires trade-offs, which must be [...]
COMMON APPLICATIONS FOR 4140 STEEL 4140 steel is a high-quality alloy with molybdenum and chromium as alloying elements. It has very good mechanical properties, including high tensile strength over 43 ksi (310 MPa) and yield strength over 35 ksi (240 MPa). Furthermore, it can be quickly mach ined to close tolerances. This steel is [...]
WHAT IS ALLOY STEEL? In addition to iron and carbon, an iron-carbon alloy formed by adding an appropriate amount of one or more alloying elements on the basis of ordinary carbon steel is called alloy steel. According to the different added elements and appropriate processing technology,alloy steel can obtain corresponding high strength,high toughness,wear resistance,corrosion [...]
COLD DRAWING PRINCIPLE Cold drawing is a processing technology of materials. For metal materials, cold drawing refers to drawing at room temperature in order to achieve a certain shape and certain mechanical properties. Cold drawing is usually a process of forcibly drawing the material through the hard alloy wire drawing die hole, which is [...]
WHAT IS INDUCTION HARDENING? Induction heating is to use electromagnetic induction to generate eddy current inside the workpiece to heat the workpiece. The workpiece is placed in the inductor (the inductor is generally a hollow copper tube that inputs intermediate frequency or high frequency alternating current (300-300000Hz or higher)) to generate alternating current. The [...]
