Mold Steel (10070)
By F. T. Gerson; Paper presented at the Annual Technical Conference of the Society of Plastics Engineers, New Orleans, LA, 1993. In order to build precise and reliable products, mold-makers require that the cavity steel they use not crack. This paper examines the types and causes of cracks in alloy steel molds, the role of mold-steel selection in preventing such cracks and a new, inexpensive and disarmingly simple technique that helps guard against their occurrence.
