| Materials with distinctive hardness, resistance to deformation, and the ability to hold a cutting edge at elevated temperatures are needed to manufacture tools. Carbon and steel alloys (tool steels) are well suited to shape other materials. With H13 tool steel, chromium-molybdenum hot work steel, used on Studio System™’s, a metal 3D printer based on Bound Metal Deposition (BMD) technology, you can achieve complex parts that are difficult to machine and that often require specialty holders, cutting tools, low feed rates and conditions. In addition, by applying the BMD process to H13, you can rapidly fabricate complex geometry parts that are almost impossible to produce through machining, such as molds with conformal cooling channels. Applications: - Die casting cores, inserts and cavities
- Extrusion dies
- Injection molds
- Hot Forging Dies
