Machine Tools Process

Carbon Steel containing 0.3-0.5% Carbon

• High Carbon Steel

• Low Carbon Steel

• Medium Carbon Steel

• Alloy Steel

Carbon Steel containing 0.6-1.0% Carbon

• High Carbon Steel

• Medium Carbon Steel

• Low Carbon Steel

• Alloy Steel

 Carbon steel that cannot be hardened by heat treatment (to form martensite) co cold working is instead used

• High Carbon Steel

• Medium Carbon Steel

• Low Carbon Steel

• Stainless Steel

Low Carbon Steel can be used in the following applications except

•  Automobile body components

• Boiler Shell

• Construction and bridge components

• Food Cans

The most ideal steel for construction of boiler parts in power and refinery plants.

• Tool Steel

• High Carbon Steel

• Medium Carbon Steel

• Stainless Steel

It is the major alloying element for Tool Steel which gives it high hardness and good wear resitance.

• Manganese

• Chromium

• Nickel

• Carbon

Type of Tool Steel that is able to withstand high temperature and maintain hardness during machining operation.

• Alloy Tool Steel

• Carbon Tool Steel

• High Speed Tool Steel

• Low Alloy Tool Steel
