<strong>VANADIS</strong> 6Electrical-dischargemachining–EDMIf EDM is performed in the hardened and temperedcondition, finish with “fine-sparking”, i.e.low current, high frequency.For optimal performance the EDM’d surfaceshould then be ground/polished and the toolretempered at approx. 25°C (50°F) lower than theoriginal tempering temperature.When EDM’ing larger sizes or complicated shapes<strong>VANADIS</strong> 6 should be tempered at high temperatures,above 500°C (930°F).Further informationPlease, contact your local Uddeholm office forfurther information on the selection, heat treatment,application and availability of Uddeholm toolsteels.Relative comparison ofUddeholm cold work tool steelMATERIAL PROPERTIES AND RESISTANCE TO FAILURE MECHANISMSGradeHardness/Resist. toplasticdeformationMachinabilityGrindabilityDimensionalstabilityAbrasivewearResistance toAdhesivewearDuctility/chippingToughness/grosscrackingCALMAXSVERKER 21<strong>VANADIS</strong> 4<strong>VANADIS</strong> 6<strong>VANADIS</strong> 10<strong>VANADIS</strong> 23<strong>VANADIS</strong> 30<strong>VANADIS</strong> 60AISI M210
