Hardox® For Bending Cutting And Welding
Hardox® 400 Plates / Hardox® 450 Plates / Hardox® 500 Plates is highly suited for press and roll bending because to its purity, flatness, and constant quality. Thinner products, in general, may be bent to smaller radiuses. Hardox® can be bent to a lower radius transverse to the rolling direction than in the rolling direction.
Abrasive Water-Jet Cutting or Laser Cutting may be suitable alternatives to gas cutting for manufacturing smaller components or minimizing hardness degradation in the zone next to the cut surface. A heat-affected zone forms at the cut surface, as it does in all thermal cutting. Before gas cutting, thick Hardox® 400/450/500 should be warmed. The material does not loss hardness during abrasive water-jet cutting, which is a cold-working procedure. The heat-affected zone is quite tiny in laser cutting. Hardox® is highly suited for press and roll bending because to its purity, flatness, and constant quality. Welding on the Hardox® to any sort of weldable steel may be accomplished using any normal welding procedure.
