  • Patent number: 10407776
    Abstract: A method and system for die compensation and restoration uses high-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) thermal spray coating and plasma ion nitriding to compensate for a particular part (damaged part) of a press die that causes formation of fine curves at a door of a vehicle to restore it to its original state. A coating thickness quantification technique may precisely compensate for the damaged part of the die that causes formation of the fine curves at the door of the vehicle in a circular form using HVOF thermal spray coating. A surface of the die may be nitrided using plasma ion nitriding after HVOF thermal spray coating is performed, so as to harden the surface of the die so that wear resistance and fatigue resistance of the die can be greatly improved and the hardfacing or overlay welding efficiency of the die can be increased.

  • Publication number: 20160184878
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a press mold for mass-producing a hot stamping cold trim includes bonding first and second steel bodies made of different materials to form a single body mold material, polishing a bottom surface and one edge surface of the mold material with processing margins, processing edge surfaces other than the one edge surface on which a bonding part is positioned, processing reference holes for guide pins and a reference surface, forming bolt holes penetrating through the reference surface and the bottom surface, processing a surface of the first steel body in a predetermined shape, heat-treating the mold material, and polishing the bottom surface and the one edge surface having the processing margins at desired accurate dimensions and wire-processing the one edge surface with the processing margin to configure a front end part having the desired accurate dimension.
