Ingot
Bottom pouring Carbide network
High Speed Steel is a high alloyed material. During the solidifying, a brittle
carbide rich network is formed. To improve the strength the material must
be forged or rolled.
10
TECHNOLOGY PROCESS
Powder Metallurgy
Erasteel has the worldwide biggest capacity of produc-
tion in powder metallurgy. With more than 40 years of
experience in powder metallurgy, Erasteel produces
PM steels with a high cleanliness level by tundish refi-
ning and gas-atomization.
Erasteel is the world leading producer of gas-atomized
PM steels.
The ASP®-process is a powder metallurgy technology. The molten steel is refined in a heated tundish to remove inclusions and
homogenize the composition.
During gas atomization the molten steel is disintegrated by powerful jets of nitrogen gas into small droplets, which solidify at a
very high speed. The powder is collected in a steel capsule which is then evacuated and welded. The Hot Isostatic Pressing of
the ASP® powder subsequently densifies the powder.
Bars, wire rods, strips and sheets are obtained from forging, hot and cold rolling and wire drawing of the HIP'd capsule.
Thanks to these properties, Erasteel ASP® grades are widely used in many
high performance applications such as tooling for metal, plastics, wood
and paper processing as well as mechanical components.
11
HEAT TREATMENT
The material from Erasteel is supplied in a soft-annealed condition. The structure
consists of a ferritic matrix containing primary carbides and also smaller carbides
which are formed during soft-annealing.

The cooling rate is a very important factor in the heat treatment process. If the
cooling rate is too low, due to low pressure or an overloaded furnace, a phenomenon
called Pro-Eutectoid Carbide Precipitation – PEC – will take place in the material
matrix. The influence of PEC is reduced hardness and reduced toughness. A mini-
mum cooling rate between 1000°C and 800°C of 7°C/sec ( ˜ 1800 - 1500°F of
45°F/sec) is necessary to avoid loss of hardness.

HEAT TREATMENT
Tempering
Tempering is made in order to transform the retained austenite into martensite and
fully temper all the martensite. For high alloyed ASP®, three temperings at 560°C
(1040°F) 1 h are recommended to achieve the best combination of hardness and
toughness. The best properties are obtained when the austenitization temperature is
varied and the tempering is carried out at 560°C (1040°F).

DEFINITION OF
WEAR MECHANISMS
Plastic deformation
During contact between a tool and its correspon-
ding work material, the tool is affected by high Plastic
deformation
stresses and temperature along the contact
surface. High load and temperature at a tool Tool Edge
edge can easily cause plastic deformation. Tool edge
Fracture
Adhesive wear Fatigue
Abrasive wear
Abrasive wear is often a slow, but unavoidable
wear mechanism caused by hard non-metallic
inclusions or other hard particles in contact Abrasive wear
with the tool surface. For the naked eye, a worn
surface may look smooth, but the abrasive particles
will probably have formed microscopic furrows
in the tool material.

EDM AND WIRE CUTTING
In Electric Discharge Machining (EDM), the temperature at the surface layer can be
very high.
In this example, the temperature has been high enough to melt the outermost area of
the surface, further down in the material to form a rehardening zone and finally cause
an overtempered zone.
This heat affected zone, which in total stretches some hundred µm down in the material,
has a severe influence on the mechanical properties. Indeed, the resolidification
cracks in the melted zone provides excellent fracture initiation points, the rehardening
zone contains very brittle untempered martensite and the overtempered zone gives
a softening of the tool.
Clearly, it is very important to remove the entire heat affected zone before the tool can
be used.
It is recommended to do a stress relieving process after EDM.

EDM AND WIRE CUTTING
Depending on the type of EDM machining and strength of the discharge energy,
the final surface quality and hence the final mechanical properties of the ASP®
steel will vary.
From the figure below, we may conclude that die sinker EDM has more severe
influence on surface quality than wire cutting EDM (EDWC) and that increased discharge
energy decreases the surface quality and hence the bend strength.

An uppermost melted and resolidified layer, often referred to as the “white layer”,
is always found after EDM-machining. The thickness of the layer can vary owing
to, for instance, the discharge energy. For HSS, this uppermost layer should be
removed as it contains very brittle non-tempered martensite which will lower the
properties and the performance of the tool.
