Abstract

As a result of cost sensitiveness, the demand on hot working steels with advanced characteristics and properties are ascending. We have used a controlled gas-metal-reaction in a P-ESR furnace to produce high quality hot working steel. These types of materials are also known as High Nitrogen Steels (HNS). An overview of the development in a pressurized induction furnace to the final industrial scale using P-ESR will be provided. Different heat treatment strategies are conducted and their effect on mechanical properties is investigated.
