Systematic perspective on extending hot-forging die lifetime

Abstract

Improving the quality and extending the service life of hot-forging dies were a great system engineering. There were many Influencing factors. In order to find the very measure of extending hot-forging service life one must systematically research on the working conditions, failure features and reasons from the theory and practice, mastered the relations of die materials among component, microstructure and properties, analyzed the whole process of dies in designing, manufacturing and using.
