Forming NM400 Steel

Forming NM400 Steel

Forming NM400 steel into desired shapes can be challenging due to its high strength and hardness. However, with the right techniques, it can be successfully formed:

Cold Forming: Cold forming is possible for NM400 steel, but it requires powerful machinery and careful handling to avoid cracking or excessive springback. Lubricants are often used to reduce friction and tool wear during the process.

Hot Forming: For more complex shapes, hot forming is recommended. The steel is heated to a temperature of 850-950°C, where it becomes more malleable. After forming, the steel is cooled slowly to restore its mechanical properties.

Roll Forming: Roll forming is used for creating long sections of NM400 steel, such as beams or channels. This process involves passing the steel through a series of rollers to gradually shape it into the desired profile.
