Objetivo Nitriding of forging tools is a well known technology to extend the service life of the tools due to the higher wear resistance of the nitrided surface layer. A good approach to improve the wear resistance is to combine a laseralloying surface treatment with a subsequently nitriding or nitrocarburising. Main innovation of this surface treatment method is the investigation of new alloy-material compositions regarding the newly-created material properties. Both the influence of laser-alloyed and subsequently nitrided (or nitrocarburised) and the influence of nitrided (or nitrocarburised) and subsequently CMSII treated surfaces will be investigated regarding the surface layer properties and in particular regarding the increase of the service lifetime of the forging tools. The project is divided into three phases: research, development and validation. A strong project management will ensure a successful course of the project and will guarantee a systematic documentation. Research: The composition of the alloy-materials for the laser alloying process and the combination of the surface treatment technologies, which will be investigated in this project, have never been tested before. The basic research will be done on samples with a simple geometry, which will be analysed by metallographic research. Development: The process parameters will be adapted to test forging tools, which will be run under industrial conditions and compared to conventionally treated tools. Based on the results of the investigation of the used tools the process parameters for the surface treatment of new forging tools will be continuously optimised. Validation: In this phase the surface treatment combination will be assessed. At the end of the project a plan about the exploitation of the results will be set up and the knowledge about the increase of service life time on forging tools will be disseminated in different routes.
