1. Enhance the mechanical properties of materials
Stainless steel forging can effectively improve the microstructure of the material by processing the material in a high-temperature and high-pressure environment, thereby significantly enhancing the strength and hardness of the material. During the forging process, the impact force of the hammer head causes the metal atoms to be arranged more closely and the grain structure to be optimized, thereby significantly improving the mechanical strength of the material.
2. Improve the toughness of materials
Stainless steel forging not only enhances the strength of the material, but also significantly increases its toughness. During the forging process, gases and inclusions that may exist inside the material are effectively eliminated, reducing internal voids and reducing the connectivity of the voids, thus improving the overall toughness of the material and making it tougher and more durable during use.
3. Optimize the microstructure of materials
Stainless steel forging significantly optimizes the material's microstructure. During the forging process, the material will undergo multiple hot and cold deformations, which can stretch and refine the grains of the material, thereby improving its mechanical and physical properties. The forged stainless steel material has a more uniform microstructure and superior performance.
4. Enhance the corrosion resistance of materials
Stainless steel forging can also significantly improve the corrosion resistance of the material. The elements such as chromium and nickel contained in stainless steel can form a dense oxide layer during the forging process. This oxide layer can effectively prevent oxidative corrosion of the material. At the same time, due to the reduction of internal voids in the material during the forging process, the surface of the material is also smoother, reducing the contact area with air and moisture, further enhancing its corrosion resistance.
