Advantages of Laser Quenching & Application Scope

Advantages of Laser QuenchingCompared with traditional processes, laser quenching enables localized independent quenching of workpiece surfaces. It features fast heating and cooling speeds, requires no cooling medium, and causes minimal workpiece deformation, making it highly suitable for overall or partial quenching of high-precision and complex parts.

No deformation and no crackingNo additional machining allowance needs to be reserved for molds; molds can be directly put into service after laser quenching.

Deep hardened layer and long service lifeThe hardened layer depth that determines mold service life is 2–6 times that of traditional flame quenching, vacuum quenching and high-frequency quenching carburizing, generally reaching 0.6~1.0 mm, which greatly extends mold service life.

Precision selective local quenchingIt solves the common problem of low hardness and short service life at rounded corners (R corners) caused by traditional quenching processes.

Superior hardness performanceIt can achieve hardness levels difficult to obtain with conventional quenching; ordinary mold steels can reach HRC 50~65.Applicable Scenarios of Laser QuenchingLaser quenching is widely applicable to molds for aluminum die casting, injection molding, forging, stamping and extrusion forming. It is extensively used in automotive manufacturing, mold production, machinery and other industrial sectors.
