Hot Rolled Thick Steel Sheets for Plastic Moulding (YB/T107-1997)
Hot rolled thick steel sheets for plastic moulding are a type of steel production that is often used in the production of plastic moulds and components. They are produced by hot rolling or hot extrusion of sheets and frames that have been hardened or tempered prior to rolling.
The hot rolled thick steel sheets for plastic moulding produced in accordance with YB/T107-1997 have a minimum thickness of 10mm and are available in a variety of grades. The steel must be hot rolled with a minimum hardness of at least 190HB (BHN).
The hot rolled thick steel sheets for plastic moulding must be able to withstand the pressures and temperatures that may be encountered during the injection moulding process. The steel must also exhibit good formability and machinability, as well as good resistance to corrosion. The process of hot rolling is beneficial because it helps produce a uniform thickness and texture of the sheets.
The production of plastic moulds and components often involves the use of hot rolled thick steel sheets. These sheets are often used to create moulds of complex shapes that require precise accuracy of form, as well as strength and durability. These moulds will often be temperature and pressure tolerant to ensure that they can be used in diverse environmental conditions.
The hot rolled thick steel sheets used in the production of plastic moulds and components must also have good damping qualities. This means that they must be able to absorb vibration and noise while remaining in the same shape after the injection process is complete.
One of the most important characteristics of hot rolled thick steel sheets for plastic moulding is that they must be annealed after being hot rolled. This helps to make them more workable and ensures that they have optimal form-ability. Heat treatment is required in order to produce the desired hardness and formability for each application.
These annealed steel sheets are ready for the manufacturing process of moulding. They are then pressed or cut into the desired shape and size, and the edges are often beveled to ensure a uniform surface finish.
Hot rolled thick steel sheets for plastic moulding are suitable for a variety of applications. They are often used in the construction of molds and tools for injection moulding, food containers, automotive components and other industrial products. Similarly, they can also be used to make window frames, fence panels and other components in the building industry. Hot rolled thick steel sheets are a cost-effective alternative to other forms of steel, and they can help to produce moulds and components of the highest quality.
