VT machining specialises in CNC Waterjet Cutting P20 Mold Steel. Because P20 Mold Steel is mold-grade, polishable and hardenable, and its machinability is pre-hardened or machined-then-hardened; polishes to high finish for molds, we plan each job around the grade to protect accuracy and surface quality.
CNC Waterjet Cutting Capability for P20 Mold Steel
- Mold-grade cleanliness
- Polishable to mirror finish
- Hardenable to 48–54 HRC
- Tolerance to ±0.005 mm
Machining P20 Mold Steel with CNC Waterjet Cutting
When cutting P20 Mold Steel, machinability is pre-hardened or machined-then-hardened; polishes to high finish for molds. Our process plan reflects this so the finished part holds its tolerances without distortion or poor finish.
Documented parameters for P20 Mold Steel mean predictable cycle times and stable, repeatable results.
CNC Waterjet Cutting Quality & Inspection
Quality is built in, not inspected on. We monitor key features during the run and confirm them at final inspection, with CMM verification available for tight tolerances. We provide the inspection and traceability records your quality system requires.
CNC Waterjet Cutting Tolerances & Surface Finish
Laser-cut P20 Mold Steel holds contour tolerances around ±0.05 mm depending on thickness, with a narrow kerf and a clean, near burr-free edge.
Exact achievable figures depend on the alloy, the feature size and the part geometry. Tell us which dimensions are critical and we will advise feasibility up front.
Design Tips for CNC Waterjet Cutting P20 Mold Steel
Small design adjustments often cut cost and lead time. Keeping holes no smaller than the material thickness, allowing for kerf, and grouping features sensibly improves edge quality and nesting yield on P20 Mold Steel. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Most P20 Mold Steel parts need some finishing, which we manage in-house or through vetted partners. Options include deburring and edge-breaking, heat treatment, surface grinding, polishing, and plating or anodising for corrosion resistance and appearance. Give us the finished-part requirement and we will sequence every operation correctly.
Why P20 Mold Steel?
