Assessment of deformations and hardness of cams and rollers working surfaces of die-cutting presses

Key Points

• The assessment reveals significant variations in hardness across the working surfaces, leading to potential wear issues.
• Hardness measurements ranged from 45 to 58 HRC across different cam and roller samples, indicating uneven material quality.
• Analysis based on visual inspections and hardness testing methods highlights the relationship between surface deformations and failure.
• Improving the assessment methods may enhance durability and operational efficiency for die-cutting presses in manufacturing.
