Tungsten carbide Cold Forming die 
Improvements in the materials: carbide is constantly evolving and the sintering equipment for these raw materials keeps bringing specific grades for each type of process.  Where before Yize was required, now the exact composition is described, the size of the grain and the necessary properties.  This has made it possible to improve the performance of the tool enormously. On the other hand steel is increasingly more specific, with a wide variety of classifications, from high speed steel, powder metallurgical, with supplementary treatments etc, which can even compete with carbide in terms of benefits.

Improvements in machinery used: tool manufacturers use machinery which is increasingly more precise and with better surface treatment. CNC machines with superfinishing, avoiding micro fissures and leaving an Ra which only a few years ago was impossible even imagine. Additionally, presses for cold forming are increasingly faster and better controlled.

Constructive Tungsten carbide Cold Forming die solutions: simulation is a great ally in cold forming, but it's the imagination and knowledge of the technicians who propose solutions to cut costs and improve performance or even make it possible to manufacture forming parts which previously seemed as if they could only be turned.
