As an important part of mold parts, the key performance indicators of precision inserts, such as wear resistance, hardness and toughness, are crucial to ensuring processing quality and improving production efficiency. The following is a detailed analysis of these performance indicators.Wear resistance is one of the most important performance indicators of precision inserts. It determines the service life of the blade during long-term cutting. Highly wear-resistant blades can keep the edge sharp during long-term use, reduce the number of blade replacements, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing production costs. The wear resistance of precision inserts mainly depends on its material composition and heat treatment process. High-quality alloy steel and high-speed steel and other materials, after precise heat treatment processes, can significantly improve the wear resistance of the blade.Hardness is an important indicator to measure the ability of precision inserts to resist scratches and penetration. High-hardness blades can better resist friction and wear during cutting and maintain the integrity and sharpness of the edge. However, too high hardness may lead to reduced toughness and increase the risk of blade breakage during cutting. Therefore, when designing and manufacturing precision inserts, a balance needs to be struck between hardness and toughness.Toughness is the ability of precision inserts to resist breakage and impact. During the cutting process, the blade will be subjected to reaction forces and vibrations from the workpiece. If the toughness is insufficient, the blade will easily break or be damaged. High-toughness blades can better withstand these forces and reduce downtime and repair costs caused by breakage. In order to improve the toughness of the blade, manufacturers usually adopt appropriate material composition and heat treatment process, as well as reasonable blade structure design.In summary, the key performance indicators of precision inserts, such as wear resistance, hardness and toughness, are interrelated and jointly determine the cutting performance and service life of the blade. In the design and manufacturing process, these performance indicators need to be comprehensively considered, and the comprehensive performance of the blade can be improved by optimizing material composition, heat treatment process and structural design to meet different processing requirements. At the same time, during use and maintenance, it is also necessary to operate in accordance with specifications to extend the service life of the blade and improve processing efficiency.
