How to control dimensional stability in high performance tools

We are moving towards manufacturing of more high precision complex products that are made out of more demanding materials where the room for error becomes smaller and smaller. Constructing a tool is often time consuming and expensive. That is why your tool need to be a reliable partner for a long time.

Klas Forsgren, Application Manager Cold Work at Uddeholm has written a technical article about the subject. This article focuses on the challenges that comes with dimensional changes, both from heat treatment and dimensional stability over time.
