VT machining offers CNC Saw Cutting for NAK80 Mold Steel (Daido NAK80 (pre-hardened)), typically supplied pre-hardened. Mirror-polishable pre-hardened steel with very uniform hardness.
CNC Saw Cutting Notes for NAK80 Mold Steel
CNC Saw Cutting is rarely the right route for NAK80 Mold Steel: in its usual condition (Pre-hardened, ~37-43 HRC) it is not suited to this process. We normally recommend grinding, EDM or machining from bar instead — send the drawing and we will suggest the most economical method.
NAK80 Mold Steel saws quickly with standard bi-metal blades.
For estimating, a 100 × 100 × 10 mm block of NAK80 Mold Steel weighs about 0.78 kg.

Why is NAK80 Mold Steel a good choice for CNC Saw Cutting?
NAK80 Mold Steel is mold-grade, polishable and hardenable, which makes it well suited to CNC Saw Cutting. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished NAK80 Mold Steel forming part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
What material thickness or size range suits CNC Saw Cutting NAK80 Mold Steel?
We form NAK80 Mold Steel sheet and plate to your developed flat pattern and bend sequence.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Saw Cutting NAK80 Mold Steel?
Achievable tolerances for NAK80 Mold Steel forming depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. We hold tight, repeatable tolerances appropriate to the feature and material. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
What surface finish is achievable on NAK80 Mold Steel with CNC Saw Cutting?
Surface finish on NAK80 Mold Steel is controlled to your specification; we confirm the achievable Ra against your callout.
Can VT machining make custom NAK80 Mold Steel parts to my drawing?
Yes. NAK80 Mold Steel forming is made to order from your CAD/2D drawing. Share your geometry, material grade, tolerance and quantity and we will confirm feasibility, lead time and pricing.
