A comprehensive methodology to consolidate the hypereutectic Al-27Si-X alloy via spray forming was investigated in an attempt to judge the feasiblilty of this alloy in applying wear resistant components. Billets having desired shape and microstructures were fabricated using forming parameters obtained from numerical calculations. Prior to tube extrusion of the spray formed billets, effects of various extrusion conditions, such as extrusion ratio, die temperature, and die configuration, on microstructures of the billet were studied. Based on results obtained from the preliminary extrusion tests, the formed billets were then hot extruded into a tubular shape. Various material properties of the extruded billet were measured and compared with the other candidate materials for anti-wear applications.

When high-speed interrupted cutting is carried out for die and mold steels with high hardness, CBN tools manifested a significantly longer wear life than carbide, ceramic, or cermet tools in an experiment of face milling characteristics. In addition, it was also found that they secured a stable surface roughness within a range of 1.6 S~6.3 S, an acceptable range for precision machining for polished machining parts. And it makes them acceptable in the precision machining field, except in industries where very high machining accuracy is required. In the high hardness interrupted cutting, it was advantageous to perform a negaland treatment and a honning treatment on the tools' cutting edge to extend tool life and surface roughness. Also, severe crater development was found on the sloped face in CBN tools following high-speed machining. This caused the cutting edge to be weakened and damaged, and ultimately resulted in a shorter tool life. Finally, as a result of EDX mapping inspection, Cr component was detected evenly on the entire crater wear area, which can be included only in STD 11.

This paper describes the wear characteristics of WC-Co cemented carbides machined with Wire-cut or Die-sinking EOM. We prepared the specimens with different grades of grinding to remove the affected layer after the EDM. These specimens were experimented by block-on-cylinder type tribometer. The result indicated that although the hardness of the affected layer was lower than that of the bulk, wear resistance was increased. In order to investigate the cause of the increase in wear resistance of the affected layer, the layer was observed and analyzed by SEM and ESCA. We also discussed the mean free path of Co phase.

It was known that the excellent wear resistance of hyper eutectic aluminum alloy is based on the primary Si particles which are distributed in the base metal. When the primary Si volume fraction increases, the smaller size have excellent wear resistance characteristics. However, this trend always does not match. There is no investigation result based on the materials and methods for real using parts. In this study, using the automotive parts manufacturer currently in use hyper eutectic Al alloy tensile test specimen type sample was fabricated by 350Ton high pressure die-casting machine. Then, fluidity, tensile, impact and wear resistance properties were evaluated. If the casting quality, primary Si size, fraction and distribution are similar, mechanical properties and wear resistance are equivalent.

High speed machining is a key issue in die and mold manufacturing recently. Even though this technology has great potential of high productivity. tool wear accelerated by high cutting speed to the hardened materials is other barrier. In this research, we attempted to reduce tool wear by considering tool inclination angle between tool and workpiece. The boundary lines describing machined sculptured surfaces were represented by both of cutting envelop condition and the geometric relationship of successive tool paths. Chip cross section, and cutting length could be obtained from the calculated cutting edge and the rotational engagement angle. From the simulation results, machining inclination angle of tool of $15^\circ$ was good enough from the point of tool wear and cutting force, and this value was verified through the cutting experiment of high speed ball end milling.

Wear characteristic of the nitrided SKD61 which is a typical mold material using for the extrusion of Al6061 alloy was investigated. The surface of SKD61 was nitrided by salt bath and plasma processes. The thickness of surface nitride layer was about $8.9{\mu}m{\sim}21.3{\mu}m$. Reciprocating friction wear test conducted using pin on disk type indicated the plasma treatment followed salt bath has a lower friction coefficient and a smaller adhesive wear with Al6061 alloy. That was identified by the $Fe_4N$ which has a better wear resistance than FeN mainly formed by plasma nitriding.

The recent increasing application rate of advanced high-strength steel(AHSS) for automotive parts makes it difficult to ensure the durability of forming tools. Significant load and friction generated during the piercing process of AHSS increase the wear rate and the damage degree to dies. These harsh process conditions also yield product failures, such as dimensional inconsistency of pierced holes and insufficient quality of hole's sheared edge. This study analyzed the effect of punch wear on the sheared surface of pierced parts and the forming load during the piercing process. Wear-shaped punches showed approximately 20% higher piercing load than normal-shaped punches, and the rollover ratio of the sheared surface also increased. It is considered that the dull edge of wear-shaped punches does not penetrate directly into the material but shears after tensioning it in a piercing direction. In addition, wear-shaped punches experienced compressive load even after completing the piercing process during the down-stroke and tensile load during the up-stroke. This load variation is related to the smaller diameter piercing holes produced by wear-shaped punches compared to normal-shaped punches. Thus, we demonstrated the predictability of the wear level of dies through a comparative analysis of the piercing load pattern.

The tool condition monitoring is one of the most important aspects to improve productivity and quality of workpiece. In this study, the wear of ceramic tool (A1$_{2}$0$_{3}$-TiC Series) cutting the hardened die material(SKD11) was investigated. Flank wear was more dominant than crater wear. Therefore the modeling of cutting force related to flank wear has been performed. The cutting force model was construct- ed by an assumption that the stress distribution on the tool face is affected by tool wear. The relationship between characteristics as cutting force and tool wear can be suggested by machining parameters depending on cutting conditions. Experiments were performed under the various cutting conditions to ensure the validity of force models. The theoretical predictions on the flank wear are approximately in good agreement with experimental results.

In this study, we investigated the effectiveness of an ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM) technique on the mechanical and wear properties of tungsten carbide (WC). The UNSM technique is a newly developed surface modification technique that increases the mechanical properties of materials by severe plastic deformation. The objective of this study was to improve the wear resistance of press die made of WC by applying the UNSM technique. We observed the microstructures of the untreated and UNSM-treated specimens using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) was used to investigate the chemical composition. The SEM observations showed the pore size and the number of pores decreased after the UNSM treatment. We assessed the wear behavior of both the untreated and UNSM-treated specimens using a scratch test. The test results showed that the wear resistance of the UNSM-treated specimens increased by about 46% compared with the untreated specimens. This may be attributed to increased hardness, reduced surface roughness, induced compressive residual stress, and refined grain size following the application of the UNSM technique. In addition, we found that the UNSM treatment increased the carbon concentration to 63% from 33%. We expect that implementing the findings of this study will lead to an increase in the life of press dies.

This paper describes the characteristic of die finishing to obtain smooth surface using electro-chemical grinding after cutting process. Electro-chemical grinding is possible under lower load and tool wear comparing with those in the mechanical grinding. Conventionally, if the metal bonding material of the grinding wheel is directly t contacted with workpiece, the current is circulated without electrolytic phenomena. Sometimes, electrical discharge is occurred between tool and workpiece. To cope with this problem, the metal-resin bonded pellet was used in this study. This pellet is composed of optimal volume of metal and resin powders and its characteristics are changable with the each volume of powders. Finally, high efficient die finishing is realized using metal resin bonded pellet in electro-chemical grinding.
