Abstract

A method of manufacturing a press mold for mass-producing a hot stamping cold trim includes bonding first and second steel bodies made of different materials to form a single body mold material, polishing a bottom surface and one edge surface of the mold material with processing margins, processing edge surfaces other than the one edge surface on which a bonding part is positioned, processing reference holes for guide pins and a reference surface, forming bolt holes penetrating through the reference surface and the bottom surface, processing a surface of the first steel body in a predetermined shape, heat-treating the mold material, and polishing the bottom surface and the one edge surface having the processing margins at desired accurate dimensions and wire-processing the one edge surface with the processing margin to configure a front end part having the desired accurate dimension.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of manufacturing a press mold for mass-producing a hot stamping cold trim, comprising: a first step of bonding a first steel body to a second steel body, which are made of different materials, the first steel body of a superhard steel and the second steel body being of a tool steel having a hardness less than that of the first steel body, to form a single body mold material; a second step of polishing a bottom surface and one edge surface of the mold material such that they include first and second processing margins; a third step of machining edge surfaces of the mold material other than the one edge surface that is among four edge surfaces on which a bonding part of the mold material is positioned; a fourth step of forming reference holes for guide pins of the mold material and a reference surface; a fifth step of forming a plurality of bolt holes penetrating through the reference surface and the bottom surface of the mold material; a sixth step of machining the reference surface of the first steel body made of a superhard material into a multi-stage shape based on two reference holes to produce the surface in a predetermined shape; a seventh step of heat-treating the mold material; and an eighth step of polishing the bottom surface and the one edge surface having the processing margins at a desired accurate dimension or desired accurate dimensions and wire-processing the one edge surface with the processing margin to configure a front end part having a desired accurate dimension, by applying a correction value based on a numerical value table of measurement values depending on a processing condition.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the four edge surfaces are processed in accordance with desired accurate dimensions.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein in the fourth step, the reference surface of the reference holes is processed with a processing margin.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the processing margins of the bottom surface and the edge surface of the mold material and the reference surface of the reference holes are in the range of 0.1 to 1.0 mm.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the first steel body comprises a superhard alloy.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the second steel body comprises a mold steel of SKD-61.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein in the first step, the first and second steel bodies made of different materials are bonded to each other by diffusion bonding.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein one or each of the reference holes is processed so that the first steel body is provided with a step.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein one or each of the plurality of the bolt holes is processed so that the first steel body is provided with a bolt head mounting groove part.
