APPLICATION// GEAR CUTTINGGEAR CUTTINGWhat is gear cutting?Gears are essential mechanical componentsused in gear boxes and transmissionsystems to allow the transmission of torque. Many gears are produced byhobbing, shaper cutting or emergingtechnologies such as skiving.Which specific technical requirements?Gear cutting tools have developed to one ofthe most demanding end usages for HSS andare constantly pushing the limits of tool materials in terms of cuttingspeeds, feeds and dry cutting. Gear cutting tools also have complexgeometries and are often re-ground. Because of this the m aterial delivered requires high hot hardness in order to survive the high cuttingspeeds and sufficient toughness to avoid chipping of teeth. At the sametime the material has to feature a good soft machinability and g rindabilityfor tool manufacturing and re-grinding operations.Why would ASP be your solution?The powder metallurgical process route used to produce our ASP products is perfectly in-line with the needs of gear cutting tool manufacturers. ASP grades meant for gear cutting feature high hothardness and high wear resistance, but they are also easier to grind andtougher due to the fine microstructure of the ASP materials.Our new developments, such as ASP 2078 features even higher performance and improvements to machinability and finer surface finishes.ASP 2190 is another new development which features previouslyunreachable hot hardness levels giving excellent resistance to crater wear and other thermally induced damages.RECOMMENDED ERASTEEL GRADESASP powder metallurgy HSS HSS conventional metallurgyASP 2030ASP 2052ASP 2060ASP 2078ASP 2190Sulphurized ASP grades are also available.4
What is broaching?Broaching can be both internal or external.Internalbroachesgenerallycreate complex shapes of holes in the centre oftools such as non-circular holes, internalsplines, keyways and flat surfaces.External broaches can be used to produce splines, slots or other surface contours that need high accuracy.Which specific technical requirements?Depending on the material to be cut, the complexity of the shape andthe amount of parts being produced the requirements on a broach canbe somewhat different. Common for all broaches are that the thermal stability of the material needs to be sufficient and that the tool materialmaintains the same properties over the whole tool. As the broaches canbe relatively long tools, they can be prone to distortions during heat treatment and even during use and this can hurt the accuracy of the result.APPLICATION// BROACHESBROACHESWhy would ASP be your solution?Due to the high technical requirements of these tools a large portion oftoday's broach manufacturers have moved away from conventional HSSto ASP in order increase performance and make manufacturing of thetools easier. ASP offers excellent toughness, reliability and high grindability. Typical grades on the market today are ASP 2004, ASP 2030and ASP 2015. Erasteel also offers the innovative grade ASP 2055 withimproved performance and grindability better suiting broach "makers"requirements.RECOMMENDED ERASTEEL GRADESASP powder metallurgy HSSHSS conventional metallurgyASP 2004ASP 2015ASP 2023ASP 2030ASP 2052ASP 2055 ASP is a registered trademark of Erasteel.5
APPLICATION// SAWSSAWSWhat is sawing?Sawing can perform precise cuts throughmany materials and is u sually an initialstep in parts production. Saws are toolswith a single row of teeth in a line andcan be of many different types, they canbe used in specific machines such asband saw machines or used in handheldtools such as hand hack saws, jig-saws, sabresaws, etc.Saws are usually provided as either solid, wherethe entire saw blade is made of HSS, or Bi- metalwhere a small edge wire of HSS has been welded to a more flexible to a ato a more flexible backing material. o a more flexible backiWhich specific technical requirements?Like most cutting tools, saws require sufficient toughness in order toavoid chipping and high wear resistance and hot hardness to last longer without wearing down. The specific requirements also depend on thespecific saw application. Hand hack saws and other reciprocating sawsneed to have a high toughness as they move back and forth through thematerial, while band saws only move in the optimal direction, decreasingthe need of toughness.For processing from edge wire to Bi-metal saws the tool material alsoneeds to have excellent weldability, low outgassing and good drawability.Why would ASP be your solution?Erasteel offers many different grades both in conventional ingot castgrades such as E Matrix II, ABC III, E M42 and WKE42, but also the popularASP 2042 and ASP 2051 powder metallurgical grades. The wide s electionof grades offered by Erasteel is a great way to ensure the best option foreach specific situation. Erasteel is unique in the ability to produce powdermetallurgical HSS able to be welded by both laser and electron beamwelding.RECOMMENDED ERASTEEL GRADESASP powder metallurgy HSS6HSS conventional metallurgyASP 2004ABCIIIASP 2042E MATRIXIIASP 2051E M42 ASP is a registered trademark of Erasteel.WKE42
What are knives?Knives are made in a wide variety of shapesfor many different applications. They aremainly utilized when you want to cut,slot, granulate or chip materials such aswood, textiles, paper, plastics, rubber andmetals.Which specific technical requirements?The technical requirements on a knife arebased on what type of material is going to be processed. Many materials such as wood and paper canbequitebe quite abrasive giving the need for high hardness and abrasive wearresistance. These sorts of materials are usually sensitive to any c oolingmedia so good hot hardness can also be a requirement.APPLICATION// KNIVESKNIVESTo make clean precise cuts with minimal cutting forces a well-definedsharp edge needs to be formed and retained. Because of this a fine microstructure and good toughness is required.Why would ASP be your solution?Erasteel offers many conventionally manufactured grades in HSS thatare well suited for knifes manufacturing such as E M2 and E T1. For advanced high-performance knives where, grindability, edge retention,edge sharpness and wear resistance are needed the powder metallurgically manufactured ASP grades are excellent upgrades.Grades such as ASP 2011 and ASP 2053 feature high wear resistance.When corrosion resistance is needed the stainless tool steel ASP APZ10can be used for excellent performance in harsh environments not suitable for regular HSS.RECOMMENDED ERASTEEL GRADESASP powder metallurgy HSSHSS conventional metallurgyASP 2004E M2 ASP 2011WKE42ASP 2053EMATII ASP APZ10 7
APPLICATION// MILLING CUTTERSMILLING CUTTERSWhat is milling?Milling covers many different machiningoperations and different types of toolsand applications. it is one of the bestways of making intricate custom partswith high precision. Milling uses roundcutting tools with varying number ofcutting edges to remove material by feeding the milling cutter into the workpiece while the cutter is rotating.Which specific technical requirements?End mills and other milling cutters require high hardness, high wearresistance and hot hardness to enable high cutting performance. Depending on the milling operation, work material and machine tooltoughness can also play a large role.Why would ASP be your solution?ASP opens up new possibilities for end mills and milling cutters in eneral as the powder metallurgical steel offers a unique combination ofghardness and wear resistance together with toughness.Tools made from ASP can be used in difficult machining operationswhere other materials would suffer from chipping or fast wear, especiallywhen machining tough aerospace grade materials with low machinability.Difficult machining conditions with machine tools suffering from vibrations can be realized with ASP milling tools without chipping dueto the excellent toughness and resistance to impact.RECOMMENDED ERASTEEL GRADESASP powder metallurgy HSSHSS conventional metallurgyASP 2030ASP 2055ASP 2060C8E M42 ASP is a registered trademark of Erasteel.8
APPLICATION// DRILLSDRILLSWhat is drilling?Drilling is a well-known machining operation in which the tool, often a multi cuttingedge tool, is fed into the work piece whilerotating in order to make a hole. As thecutting action happens along the entirecutting edge of a drill, the cutting speedswill vary from the rotational speed of thetool at the edge to zero at the centre. Thismakes it impossible to have optimized cutting parameters along all points of contactand the centre of the drill will push the metalinstead of cutting it.Which specific technical requirements?The technical requirements of drills are very dependent on the market.The Do It Yourself segment catering to drills usually utilises conventionallymanufactured HSS with standard performance requirement. However,there are also many applications that require high performance drills inmanufacturing.These drills require good wear resistance and toughness as the machining conditions alter along the cutting edge of the drill, causingunfavourable conditions close to the centre of the drill.Why would ASP be your solution?Erasteel offers all the common grades for drill manufacturers such asE M2, E M35 and E M42. For drills that require higher p erformance theproperties of powder metallurgically manufactured ASP is more suitable. ASP can be used to increase tool life, allowing for machiningin otherwise too unstable conditions or to machine difficult materials.ASP can outperform solid carbide drills in some conditions and offers abetter resistance to chipping.RECOMMENDED ERASTEEL GRADESASP powder metallurgy HSSHSS conventional metallurgyASP 2015ASP 2030ASP 2052ASP 2060E M2 9
APPLICATION// TAPSTAPSWhat is Tapping?Tapping, thread cutting or thread formingoperations are common machiningoperations, which produce internal threads in drilled holes, mostly to allowthe usage of fasteners. Dies are toolsused to cut or form outer threads onround shaped products.Which specific technical requirements?Tapping is often one of the last machining operations on a part and if thetap breaks in a hole a high value part might have to be scrapped. Due tothis, taps need to be reliable and have a predictable tool life.Another concern for tap manufacturers is grindability as grinding operations makes up a large part of the cost involved in producing taps.Why would ASP be your solution?The powder metallurgical route used to produce ASP andhas brought many improvements to both tap manufacturers and endusers. The fine microstructure and cleanliness of powder metallurgy HSSdo not only improve the r eliability and performance of the tap, but alsomakes it easier to grind, significantly decreasing tap manufacturers costof ownership.BlueTap has been specifically designed to bring the benefits of the powder metallurgical route to tap manufacturers and end users.Erasteel also supplies high performance conventional grades for tapping,like GrindamaxTMV3.

What is Powder Metallurgy Powder Metallurgy is a fabrication technique that uses metal powder to manufacture complex industrial parts. It involves blending ultra-fine powdered materials, pressing them into a desired shape and then heating the compressed material to bond. The powder metallurgy process generally consists of four basic steps: 1.
secondary finishing or sizing the powder metallurgy product. 1. Metal Powder 2. Mixing and Blending 3. Compaction 4. Sintering Fig.1: Basic Steps in the PM process 1.2 Production of Metal Powder: A Powder can be defined as a finely divided particulate solid. It is characterized by size and shape, density, flow, compressibility etc.
