      Heat treatment<\/h3>\n

      Soft annealing<\/h4>\n

      Temperature: 870\u00b0C, duration 1h + 1h for 25 mm thickness. slow cooling in the furnace (10 to 20\u00b0C\/h)<\/em>. The atmosphere in the furnace must be reducing to avoid decarburization of the steel.<\/p>\n

      Stress relieving<\/h4>\n

      After machining, it is recommended to perform stress relieving at 650\u00b0C for a minimum of 2 hours, followed by slow cooling in the furnace to 450\u00b0C.<\/p>\n

      Austenitization<\/h4>\n

      In order to avoid any risk of cracking it is recommended to preheat in 2 steps.<\/p>\n

        \n
      • 1st preheating step: temperature: 550\u00b0C time: 30 s\/mm of thickness<\/li>\n
      • 2nd preheating step: temperature: 850\u00b0C time: 30 s\/mm of thickness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Recommended austenitizing temperature: 1010 – 1050\u00b0C. The holding time should not be too long to avoid a risk of grain coarsening and a loss of toughness. It is recommended to keep the part at the austenitizing temperature 30 minutes per inch of thickness as soon as the temperature of the surface reach the austenitization temperature.<\/p>\n

        Temperatures over 1020\u00b0C are not recommended in order to avoid big amounts of retained austenite leading to a poor stability and the risk of cracks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

        \n

        Quenching medium<\/h4>\n

        Oil at 80\u00b0C, vacuum (pressure > 6 bars)<\/em>, salt bath 500 – 550\u00b0C.
        \nTo ensure good toughness, treatment with oil or salt bath is preferable.<\/p>\n

        Sub zero treatment<\/h4>\n

        For parts that need to have high dimensional stability and to increase wear resistance without reducing toughness, it is recommended to perform a subzero treatment at a temperature between -70\u00b0C and -190\u00b0C for 1 hour for 25 mm of thickness of the part.<\/p>\n

        The temperature range from -70\u00b0C up to -120\u00b0C (named cold treatment of steel)<\/em> leads to the complete transformation of austenite into martensite and as a consequence to better stability associated with improved hardness and better wear resistance and the temperature range from -135\u00b0C down to -190\u00b0C (named cryotreatment of steel)<\/em> leads also to the complete transformation of austenite and also the precipitation of ultrafine carbides improving a lot the wear resistance without modification of the toughness. This treatment is optional for common applications.<\/p>\n

        Tempering<\/h4>\n

        To ensure a minimum residual austenite rate as well as greater tool stability, it is essential to perform a double (better triple)<\/em> tempering. Each tempering is followed by a cooling under 100\u00b0C. Depending on the use of the final part the following tempering temperatures are recommended:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

        \n

        Each tempering time must be at least equal to 1h + 1h for 25 mm of thickness of the treated part (equivalent thermal thickness)<\/em>.<\/p>\n

        Surface treatment<\/h3>\n

        Nitriding<\/h4>\n

        TG Wear can be nitrided at temperatures less than or equal to 20\u00b0C below tempering temperatures without risk of deterioration of the mechanical characteristics. The hardness of the nitride layer is around 1100 HV1 and the thickness is dependent on the nitriding process.<\/p>\n

        PVD, CVD<\/h4>\n

        TG Wear is suitable for all kinds of PVD and CVD treatment as soon as the treatment temperature is 30\u00b0C lower than the last tempering temperature.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” bottom_padding=”60″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

        Fine grinding<\/h4>\n

        General indications for grinding wheels to be used on TG Wear in the heat treated condition. Usually, rather soft vitrified aluminum oxide grinding wheels (grades G for plane grinding to K for cylindrical grinding)<\/em> are used.<\/p>\n

        Particular attention will be paid to effective cooling of the surface during grinding to prevent degradation of the material surface.<\/p>\n

        Electro-discharge machining<\/h4>\n

        TG Wear is also suitable for EDM machining (wire or electrode)<\/em>. Preferably, the machining will be carried out with a low current density and a high frequency in order to limit the thickness of the white layer as much as possible.<\/p>\n

        Then it is necessary to carry out a stress relieving at 25\u00b0C below the last tempering in order to reduce the level of residual stresses (which could lead to a risk of cracking)<\/em> and to carry out a polishing to completely remove the white layer formed during the discharge machining process.<\/p>\n

        Welding<\/h3>\n

        TG Wear cannot be welded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” bottom_padding=”120″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n
