【Material Revolution】Decoding how HIP process reshapes the ultimate performance of tungsten carbide molds-core technology choice of global TOP manufacturers
In the micron-level precision arena, every 0.1% increase in material density means a geometric leap in product life. As a leader in special cemented carbide technology, we use HIP process as the core engine to build the ultimate material solution for tungsten carbide mold blanks, helping the global industry to break through the dilemma of life-cost game.
HIP process: "Industrial Evolution" that reshapes material genes
1.Ultra-high pressure and high temperature "quenching"
150-200MPa ultra-high pressure argon + 1000℃~1400℃ high temperature synergistic effect, completely eliminates defects such as micropores, cracks, and component segregation inside the material, and the density is infinitely close to the theoretical value of 99.99%.
Compared with traditional sintering process: porosity is reduced by 90%, hardness is increased by 15%, and wear and fatigue failure are blocked from the source.
2.Revolutionary upgrade of microstructure
Uniform distribution of cobalt phase: mesh penetration of bonding phase, impact toughness increased by more than 40%, no fear of cracking in high stress scenarios such as cold heading and stamping.
Grain refinement to 0.5μm level: wear resistance increased by 30% year-on-year, and mold life leaped from 500,000 times to 800,000 times.
