VT machining specialises in CNC Punching SKD61 Tool Steel. Because SKD61 Tool Steel is wear-resistant and hardenable for tooling, and its machinability is machined in the annealed state, then hardened; carbide tooling preferred, we plan each job around the grade to protect accuracy and surface quality.
CNC Punching Capability for SKD61 Tool Steel
- Air/oil/water-hardening grades
- High wear resistance
- Hardenable to 58–64 HRC
- Tolerance to ±0.005 mm
Machining SKD61 Tool Steel with CNC Punching
The machinability of SKD61 Tool Steel is machined in the annealed state, then hardened; carbide tooling preferred. For CNC Punching we select tooling, feeds, speeds and coolant to match, keeping the SKD61 Tool Steel workpiece stable and the result accurate.
Because we machine SKD61 Tool Steel regularly, proven settings shorten setup and keep quality repeatable across reorders.
Design Tips for CNC Punching SKD61 Tool Steel
A few design choices make a real difference to cost and quality. Keeping hole-to-edge and hole-to-hole distances at least 1.5–2× thickness avoids distortion and tearing in punched SKD61 Tool Steel. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
CNC Punching Tolerances & Surface Finish
Punched SKD61 Tool Steel holds hole-position repeatability around ±0.10 mm across the sheet, with consistent hole quality when punch/die clearance is matched to the gauge.
The tightest tolerances are reserved for the features your drawing flags as critical. Share your tolerance scheme and we will confirm what is realistic before quoting.
CNC Punching Quality & Inspection
Consistent quality comes from disciplined process control. Critical dimensions on SKD61 Tool Steel parts are checked in-process and verified at final inspection using calibrated instruments and, where required, CMM measurement. Full documentation — dimensional reports, mill certs, FAIR — is available when your programme needs it.
