UTILIZAÇÃO DO MATERIAL AÇO AISI VH13 TRABALHO A QUENTE, NA MATRIZ DE ESTAMPAR RODAS DE ALUMÍNIO

Abstract

The steels are considered the most used materials in the industrial area, and its performance is evident in the labor market. The Steel is a constantly evolving material, and certainly what led it to win this highlight, was the vast field in which its properties enable to act, and their peculiar characteristics that provide a good performance for low costs. The material VND steel, cold working of the matrix is very relevant in micro structural elements. The steel AISI VH13 is a hot working steel, with applications in matrixes and punch of forging, hot sizing matrixes, hot molds and die casting machine parts under zinc and aluminum alloy pressure and others. This study aims to analyze the replacement of VND steel by AISI VH13 steel in the stamping process of aluminum wheels. Within this theme tests specimens were analyzed, checking elongation, tensile deformation, the load required to break the material and impact energy. In order to develop this theme, it was established a work schedule, which consists of collecting material samples of VND and AISI VH13 steel. From the results of mechanical tests, it was put into practice the proposed objective.The results were compiled into charts, facilitating the analysis and discussion to drawing conclusions.
