Thermal Fatigue: Increase die life

Coordinator: Lorenzo Valente, Ecotre Valente CEO

The Die Casting Technical Committee invites foundries and mold makers to participate in the second edition of the Course “Thermal fatigue. Increase the die life “. In the first edition of 2018, the 14 speakers shared their knowledge and experience with the participants, from the University, to steels, passing from heat treatments and arriving at the casting simulation software to show the multiple and difficult mechanisms that are the cause of the thermal fatigue. In these 2 years, the participants were able to put into practice what they collected during the course and verify with satisfaction that it is possible to increase the productivity of the die.
Foundries, die makers and designers, we are waiting for you!
