Powdered Metal Multi-Lobular Tooling And Method Of Fabrication

View page
US Patent:
20080236341, Oct 2, 2008
Filed:
Jun 5, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/133507
Inventors:
Edward Kletecka - South Beloit IL, US
Sean Kurtz - Elburn IL, US
Assignee:
ACUMENT INTELLECTUAL PROPERTIES, LLC - Troy MI
International Classification:
B22F 5/00
US Classification:
761011
Abstract:
A tool made of powdered metal, such as a modified T15 HSS in powdered form, and having a multi-lobular end profile for punching multi-lobular recesses into workpieces, such as into the heads of fasteners. The tool is homogenous and contains only carbides which are relatively small, such as in the 1-4 micron range. Also provided is a method of fabricating such a tool. The method requires that a powdered metal bar is cut and then the cut piece is worked to provide the multi-lobular tool. The final part is theoretically 100% dense, as opposed to being only 95-98% dense as in metal injection molded parts. In use, the final part, due to how it is fabricated, has increased column strength and increased impact resistance.
