Experimental Study on Continuous Laser Polishing Die Steel S136D

Abstract

Abstract With the traditional polishing method the mold material will cause problems such as difficulty in processing the micro-area surface and damage to the surface of the workpiece. Laser polishing technology is an advanced and new surface processing technology that has emerged in recent years. Because laser polishing has the characteristics of good polishing quality and low thermal effect, it is very suitable for high-precision polishing of mold steel, titanium alloy and other materials. By properly controlling the process parameters such as laser energy density, scanning speed, scanning pitch and defocusing amount during laser polishing, the workpiece can be polished with high precision and the surface roughness can be quickly reduced. The processing examples in the paper further illustrate the superiority of laser polishing.
