This document provides information on repairing and rebuilding drop forging dies and tools using EWAC CP HFD 010 welding material. The summary is as follows:
1) EWAC CP HFD 010 can be used to repair and rebuild drop forging dies, punches, and inserts by welding damaged or cracked metal.
2) The welding procedure involves cleaning the area, removing damaged metal, preheating to 400-450°C and maintaining temperature, depositing the weld in short gaps while keeping the electrode perpendicular, and peening the deposits.
3) After welding, the die is air cooled to 200°C and then heated to 550-600°C for 12-16

Repair and build-up of drop forging tools and damaged
profiles Typical Applications: Procedure: Drop forging dies, punches, inserts. Clean weld area. Remove all cracked or fatigued metal with EWAC GougeTec. Pre- Outstanding Features: heat job to 400°-450°C and maintain • Superior deformation resistance at high throughout welding. Deposit with short temperatures. gap, keeping electrode perpendicular to • Excellent compatibility with die block welding direction. Peening of deposits is steels. essential. Chip slag between passes. After • Machinable with tungsten carbide tool. completing deposition, air-cool the job to • All position weldability. 200°C to develop uniform hardness. Then transfer to a furnace at 550°C-600°C and Recommendation: temper for 12-16 hours. Remove into still Joining and build-up on all drop forging air and cool. tools.
