There are several types of metal that can be adopted to manufacture the die of the pellet mill parts. Each metal has different characteristics, but most of all, the essential features of die are abrasion resistance and corrosion resistance, which is hard enough to handle the pressure during the production process and achieve high production efficiency.
Carbon Steel Alloy
The greatest strength of carbon steel are good abrasion and breakage resistance. The drawback is not resistant to corrosion. It will get rusted easily and worse still, will block the hole of the die and affect the productivity. Adding some lubricative agent before or after the production can help ease the corrosion. Moreover, carbon steel has good hardness, longest service life and low cost, so it is still applicable to many materials.
