What material requirements should CNC press brake tooling meet?

To ensure the durability of CNC press brake tooling, the selection of materials is extremely stringent. Only materials that meet the following requirements are considered high-quality.

1. Wear resistance

This is a basic and crucial material property. During the production process, intense friction occurs between the mold surface and the workpiece. If the material is not wear-resistant, the CNC press brake tools will easily become damaged and fail.

2. Toughness

The working environment is relatively harsh, and the mold must withstand tremendous impact forces. Only strong and tough materials can withstand such impact without breaking.

3. High-temperature resistance

CNC bending tool operate in high-temperature environments, which can reduce their hardness and strength, making them susceptible to plastic deformation. Therefore, they must possess excellent high-temperature resistance.
