Why are stainless steel forgings difficult to machine?
Why arestainless Steel Forgings considered the 'tough nuts' in the forging industry?
Stainless steel forgings are difficult to process, and the main challenges lie in three areas:
1. Complex alloy composition, high strength and low plasticity at high temperatures, resulting in great resistance to metal flow and a high risk of cracking;
2. Poor thermal conductivity, causing temperature differences during heating and cooling, which directly affects the accuracy of the forgings;
3. High requirements for equipment and molds, as the strong resistance to deformation causes molds to wear easily, requiring special materials and design;
However, Sanming Machinery has mature processes, allowing even the most challenging stainless steel forgings to be handled with precision!
