Direct Process
Hot Stamping Manufacturing Process
• The blank is heated to 910 degree Celsius in the furnace.
• Then the blank is transferred to the die within 6 secs.
• Die closing for 15-20 secs to quench the blank.
• The part is trimmed by laser cutting.

Mechanical Properties of Boron Steel 15B22
Ref: Garcia Aranda et al., 2002
• The blank is heated to austenite state followed by fast die quenching.
• The critical cooling rate to obtain the martensite microstructure is 27 K/sec.

Conclusions
• The demand for the hot stamping parts from the automotive industry
shows a strong growth. The annual demand is predicted to reach 5.7
billion pcs by 2018.
• China Steel Corporation has successfully developed non-coated and
coated high temperature oxidation resistant 15B22 boron steel for the
hot stamping process.
• After hot stamping (die quenching), the YS, TS and Elongation of
CSC 15B22 can reach 1090 MPa, 1510 MPa and 6.75% respectively.
• Through the test, it is sure that the developed 15B22 steel can meet
the requirement of GM standard (GM 14400) and VW standard
(TL4225) for hot stamping.
