Ks Std12 Steel Key Considerations For Machining - China

Key Considerations Tool Selection is Paramount: Never use ordinary high-speed steel tools to machine KS STD12 steel, as they will wear out rapidly.

Investing in high-quality carbide or CBN tools is more economical in the long run.

Cooling is Crucial: Whether turning, milling, or grinding, adequate coolant is essential to ensure machining quality and prevent thermal damage.

Work Hardening: When cutting in the annealed state, avoid excessively low feed rates to prevent the tool from "squeezing" the material surface, causing localized hardening and making subsequent cutting more difficult.

White Layer Removal: After EDM/WEDM, the removal of the altered layer must be considered, especially for molds subjected to fatigue loads.

Modern High-Efficiency Machining Trends

For large or complex molds, "high-speed hard milling" techniques are sometimes used to shorten cycle times: Use dedicated carbide or CBN solid end mills.

Use a strategy of high speed, small depth of cut, and fast feed to directly perform semi-finishing and finishing on quenched SKD12 (HRC<55 is more effective).

This requires high-performance CNC machine tools (high rigidity, high speed) and professional CAM programming (to ensure constant tool load and smooth path).
