1. General introduction
Tool steels are split up into 2 groups, cold working tools and hot working tools.
Cutting tools such as blanking punches, cutting blades, trimming tools, shear blades etc. predominately belong to the group of cold working tools. Cold working tools are designed to work (cut, punch, form etc.) on cold materials such as sheet metal, bars, profiles, tubes etc. where heat is generated as a result of the actual working process of cutting, forming, punching and from the friction of the tool on the metal. The temperature of the tool rarely reaches 250 C, eliminating the need of heat resistance in the base metal.
In the case of hot working tools such as forging dies, injection moulds, hot shear blades, ingots, press rolls and similar, the metal is worked on in hot condition. Here the properties required are high temperature resistance, good tempering properties and good hot wear resistance against shock, pressure and friction.
For many years, repair of worn and damaged tools has been standard procedure in many workshops, bringing enormous financial and technical advantages, since reconditioning by machining or grinding is reduced or even unnecessary.
New production of cutting tools in series by build up welding is only economic, if the savings on base metal cost are higher than the welding cost. Therefore, in general, only large tools are produced by build up welding. However, the costs are not always the deciding factor. By using a softer base material the crack resistance is higher and the possibility of dressing the tool is better and , last but not least, delivery problems of special tool base materials may be solved.

Welding methods
2.1.
In the tool steel welding, coated welding electrodes account for approximately 50 of consumables used. For maintenance welding on tools, the guidelines of the steel manufacturers concerning preparation, pre- heating and interpass temperature should be followed carefully. High chrome- and tungsten containing alloys should be preheated slowly and thoroughly to avoid heat stress and cracks due to the low heat conductibility. Depending on the requirement electrodes with rutile or basic coatings are available. Rutile coated electrodes have a stable, soft spray arc, which allows welding with low amperage. The weld bead is finely rippled with a smooth appearance, which is ideal for welding cutting edges. The slag is self detaching. Basic coated electrodes have a more intense arc with a deeper penetration and a higher bead build up. The bead appearance is not as fine as that of a rutile coated electrode. The weld deposit has a high toughness. The slag does not have to be removed on multi pass welding which is an advantage on large welding jobs. Whenever possible use the stringer bead welding technique. Weaving should be avoided. lf several layers are needed it is advisable to apply 3 layers with an electrode of 2,5 mm diameter instead of 2 layers with an electrode of 3,2 mm diameter. Deposit short stringer beades, remove the slag and lightly peen the bead immediately. Use this procedure until sufficient build up is achieved. Slow cooling in air, under a heat insulating cover or in an oven is advisable. A post heat treatment may be needed.

High speed steels have, depending on the chemical composition and the heat treatment, a high retention of hardness and high heat resistance up to 600 C. Cutting tools made of high speed steel have good edge retention properties at high temperature giving a high cutting performance. High speed steels are also used for cold cutting tools combining abrasion resistance with toughness. These properties are obtained through a high percentage of special carbides. For repair of high speed steels tools, UTP 690 is used. This easy to use rutile coated electrode is distinguished by its spray arc, smooth bead surface and self detaching slag. Complimentary products: TIG wire UTP A 696 is available. These welding consumables have been developed predominantly for the production of new cutting tools using non- or low alloy base materials. They are also used for repairs on large cutting and forming tools. The hardness of the untreated welding deposit is approx. 60 HRC. A second or third tempering at 550 C is needed to eliminate the remaining austenite (during cooling the remaining austenite is changed to martensite), producing a final hardness of 64 - 65 HRC (secondary hardening). When repairing cutting edges, the damaged area has to be cleaned first and pre- heated to appr. 150 C. This pre-heating is sufficient if the damage is small and/or the crack does not go into the base metal. If large parts are broken out or if large surfaces need to be built up, the tool has to be pre- heated thoroughly to 450 - 600 C.
INDEX For small repairs use a TIG torch with a small diameter tungsten electrode. Use lowest possible amperage, fuse the surface carefully and deposit the TIG wire in stringer beads.

Welding of cold working tool steels Ledeburitic Cr- cutting steel with 5 - 12 % Cr
These cold working steels are mainly used for press tools for car body parts due to their high resistance against sliding and frictional wear. For large repairs on these air hardened tool steels, the correct preheat is critical. The tools are prepared for welding by grinding. The pre- heating has to be done slowly but thoroughly to 450 - 480 C. Allow one hour for every 25 mm of thickness of material to be welded. The build up welding should be applied as follows: Quick repair Large repair small repairs on the hard tool, 1 - 2 layers multi layer build up on the hard tool
Repair with identical material changing of shape or pattern on a soft annealed tool Quick repairs can be carried out with little or no pre- heat of approx. 150 C using Chromium steel electrode UTP 665 or TIG rod UTP A 66. With the pick up of C from the base material, the welding deposit will reach a hardness of approx. 55 HRC. For large repairs (more than 2 layers), the tool has to be pre- heated completely to 450 - 480 C. The consumables to be used for welding are the electrode UTP 67 S (basic coated), or the UTP 673 (rutile coated), or the TIG wire UTP A DUR 600. The hardness of the weld deposit is 56 - 60 HRC.

The Mo- Cr steels are, due to their good heat conductibility, very resistant against hot cracks under thermal shock, making them ideal for press dies, injection moulds and hot rolling rolls etc. (1.2343, 1.2344, 1.2606).
The Ni- Cr- Mo steels are, due to their toughness, particularly suitable against impact load (1.2713, 1.2714).
Welding on hot working tool steels can be done with precipitaion hardening, martensitic or workhardening welding consumables. lt is also important that cracks are gouged out completely. The Cr- Mo steels must be pre-heated to approx. 400 C, the Ni- Cr- Mo steels to min. 300 C.
The welding can be done with consumables with characteristics similar to the base metal, which give the required hardness. These tool steels should after substantial quantities of welding material have been deposited, be stress relieved at approx. 550 C.
INDEX
INDEX
For build up welding on injection tools the use of age hardenable martensitic material (Maraging Steel) is recommended, due to its high wear resistance. For this repair the tool is pre-heated to approx. 150 C and welded by maintaining this temperature. The deposited material has a hardness of approx. 37 HRC. Age hardening at 480 C / 3 - 4 h will bring the tool to a hardness of 53 HRC.
On forging tools, very good results are obtained by using work hardening high Ni- and Co-base alloys. These alloys have an initial hardness after Build up of the whole die pattern with Ni-alloy deposition of approx. 240 and 320 HB respectively.
In operation, due to impact and pressure the hardness will increase to approx. 45 HRC. The available welding consumables can be used for partial repairs, for complete reconditioning, or for filling whole defects. For their particulars see table 7.3.

Injections tools
for non hardenable plastics (Thermoplast) The welding consumable requirements can differ, however high wear resistance, good heat conductibility, dimensional accuracy at temperatures of 160 - 220 C, and a polishable deposit are required in both cases. In addition, press tools have to have high pressure resistance and toughness. For certain plastics corrosion resistance is also needed. The decision to use either low- or high alloy steel as a base material depends on the application of the form of the die. Frequently used are the annealable steels quality 1.2311 and 1.2312. Welding on these materials is done with a pre-heat of 350 - 400 C. In general the weld filler metal used has a similar alloy to the base metal and is applied either as an electrode or a TIG rod (see table 6.3). In case where a tool has been surface hardened and has to be repair welded, the hard layer must be removed prior to welding. For this kind of repair, the TIG rod UTP A 702 has proved to be very useful.

As a buffer layer for a build up, and for buttering on a joint the electrode recommended is a pure Nickel type. These types of electrode have in general a very good alloying characteristic and can be welded with DC straight polarity or with AC. The crack resistance is improved by depositing short beads followed immediately by a peening. The welding deposit of Nickel is highly ductile and workable. Residual stress is relieved during cooling by peening the weld lightly. Ferro- Nickel type electrodes are recommended for cover layers on build up and joints. The welding deposit has a slightly higher tensile strength, corresponding to GGG 50. To grind Nickel base deposits Fe- and S- free grinding discs are recommended. The discs are normally marked accordingly. The highest crack resistance on multi layer welding is obtained by using an electrode with a Bi- metallic Ferro- Nickel core wire (UTP 86 FN), weldable on DC straight polarity or AC. The current carrying capacity of this electrode is very high and prevents overheating completely. Also this deposit should be peened to reduce welding stress. Very large and substantial building up repairs can be done by using our Ferro- Nickel MIG wire UTP A 8051 Ti.
