Advanced high-strength steels are being used widely in automotive industry to achieve lightweight construction and fuel efficiency. During advanced high-strength steel blanking, the die components have to sustain higher pressure, and this may result in some problems such as chipping, cracking, galling and severe die wear, which has a great effect on the die life. This study aims to investigate the wear resistance performances of five die materials (carburized 4Cr13, conventional SKD11, Caldie, A2 and tungsten steel D60) using a featured blanking die setup combining five different die materials. The surface topography and microstructure of punching die materials are measured by optical profilometer and microscope. Based on the measured results, the specified wear rate and worn profiles of die inserts are obtained and compared. It is demonstrated that Caldie and A2 have higher wear resistance performance than SKD11 and 4Cr13. Moreover, the experimental results display that the most severe wear locations occur at the interfaces of straight lines and circular arcs.
