“…The results correlate to previous findings obtained in tribological testing related to sheet metal forming where several research groups have reported on improved galling resistance of the PM grade [5,10,11]. Further, the results help to reveal the very early stages of wear the understanding on how different microstructures influence the wear process.…”

“…Uddeholm Tooling has developed a new, cold work tool steel Vancron 40, a powder metallurgical, nitrogen alloyed, high speed steel with excellent anti-galling properties [174,175]. Nitrogen increases the stability of vanadium nitride and the size of the hard phases become very small in the final tool material.…”

Environmentally benign tribo-systems for metal forming

et al. 2010

The growing awareness of environmental issues and the requirements to establish solutions diminishing the impact on working environment as well as external environment has initiated ever increasing efforts to develop new, environmentally benign tribological systems for metal forming. The present paper gives an overview of these efforts substituting environmentally hazardous lubricants in cold, warm and hot forging as well as sheet forming and punching/blanking by new, less harmful lubricants and furthermore describes other more generic measures directed towards the same goal such as development of anti-seizure tool materials and coatings and application of structured workpiece and tool surfaces.

“…The tool steel type used for production of new corners, possessing high resistance towards adhesive load is a new steel grade Vancron 40 (1.1% C, 1.8% N, 0.5% Si, 0.4% Mn, 4.5% Cr, 3.2% Mo, 3.7% W, 8.5% V) by Uddeholm, which is designed to be used without surface coating as it contains a high amount of low friction vanadium rich nitrides in the matrix. Vancron 40 is a cold-work tool steel with an excellent galling/adhesive wear profile, which makes the steel ideal for severe production conditions and/or long run production in applications where surface coated tool steel is needed [8,9]. The result obtained did not exceed the performance of the uncoated Sleipner steel.…”
