Selected properties of the surface layer (SL) of AISI D2 and Vanadis 6 tool steels at hardness of 60 ±1 HRC, after grinding and hard turning with subsequent slide burnishing are presented. The influence of the mentioned mechanical treatments in relation to the geometrical structure, microstructure and stresses level in SL for tested steels were determined.

Tool steels are commonly used to cut metal materials due to their distinctive hardness, resistance to abrasion and deformation. However, tool steels are difficult to be joined using conventional fusion welding process. In this study, a thixotropic property of metal was utilised to butt-join an AISI D2 tool steel by using uncommon direct partial re-melting (DPRM) method. A high frequency of induction heating is used to apply the DPRM method. From the recent study, there are many methods in achieving the globular microstructure with the success of semi-solid joining process. Though, very less information on the microstructural effect of semi-solid joining on the mechanical properties was reported. This study aims to analyse the effect of uniaxial force on the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of the thixo-joint of D2 tool steel. The microstructural analysis showed the diffusion occurred between the grains of the thixo-joint sample with 2.5 N uniaxial force. The maximum strength of the thixo-joint sample with force was 652 MPa. This was slightly higher than the as-received sample and the thixo-joint sample without force. The average hardness value of the thixo-joint sample was 400 HV due to the transformation of ferrite to the metastable austenite.

This research analyzes the mechanical properties and fracture behavior of two cold work tool steels: AISI “D2” and “O1”. Tool steels are an economical and efficient solution for manufacturers due to their superior mechanical properties. Demand for tool steels is increasing yearly due to the growth in transportation production around the world. Nevertheless, AISI “D2” and “O1” (locally made) tool steels behave differently due to the varying content of their alloying elements. There is also a lack of information regarding their mechanical properties and behavior. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the plasticity and ductile fracture behavior of “D2” and “O1” via several experimental tests. The tool steels’ behavior under monotonic quasi-static tensile and compression tests was analyzed. The results of the experimental work showed different plasticity behavior and ductile fracture among the two tool steels. Before fracture, clear necking appeared on “O1” tool steel, whereas no signs of necking occurred on “D2” tool steel. In addition, the fracture surface of “O1” tool steel showed cup–cone fracture mode, and “D2” tool steel showed a flat surface fracture mode. The dimple-like structures in scanning electron microscope (SEM) images revealed that both tool steels had a ductile fracture mode.

The development of industry in the last ten years has caused the production of parts with relatively small dimensions. This has led to intensive development of efficient micro-technologies through research of processes, machines and tools. This paper presents the research of machinability, channels micro-milling in AISI D2 tool steel (X155CrVMo-5), hardened to 62 HRc. As the tool is used micro-milling cutter with diameter of 0.6 mm and relatively large working length of 5 mm. Analysis of surface roughness, burr on workpiece edges and reduction of cutter diameter due tool wear was performed.
