Mr. Cheng asked if there were any die steels he could recommend that don’t stick to the material and don’t crack. He’s currently cutting 5mm iron sheets, and using DC53 for the base plate causes sticking, resulting in burrs on the products. Coating doesn’t help either—applying a coating requires polishing the mold first, which is a…

Even after re-profiling the mold surface and performing stress relief treatment on the mold cavity, as well as shot peening the cavity, the mold life remains short. A single mold can be re-profiled a maximum…
