  • Patent number: 9855603
    Abstract: Material and method for the production of material with isotropic, mechanical properties and improved wear resistance and high hardness potential. Method includes producing in a powder metallurgical (PM) method a slug or ingot from a material of ledeburite tool steel alloy, and subjecting one of the slug or ingot or a semi-finished product produced from the slug or ingot to full annealing at a temperature of over 1100° C., but at least 10° C. below the fusing temperature of the lowest melting structure phase with a duration of over 12 hrs. In this manner, an average carbide phase size of the material is increased by at least 65%, a surface shape of the material is rounded and a matrix is homogenized. Method further includes subsequently processing the material into thermally tempered tools with high wear resistance occurs or into parts to which abrasive stress is applied.
