Computer-aided laser surface treatment and combined nitriding of forging dies with the objective of a lifetime increase (CURARE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2010,

"The European forging industry – dominated by SMEs – is steadily forced to reduce production costs and increase production volumes as well as part quality. One opportunity to meet these challenges is the application of innovative surface treatments to increase the forging dies lifetime by 100-200% and thus to reduce the overall die costs by 30%. Therefore in close co-operation a consortium of two ...
