The performance of metal materials is generally divided into two categories:
process performance and service performance. The so-called process performance
refers to the performance of metal materials under the specified cold and hot
processing conditions during the processing and manufacturing process of
mechanical parts. The quality of the metal
material process performance determines its adaptability to processing and
forming in the manufacturing process. Due to different processing conditions, the required process performance is also
different, such as casting performance, weldability, forgeability, heat
treatment performance, machinability, etc. The so-called service performance
refers to the performance of metal materials under the conditions of use of
mechanical parts, including mechanical properties, physical properties, chemical
properties, etc. The performance of metal materials determines its scope of use
and service life. In the machinery manufacturing
industry, general mechanical parts are used in normal temperature, normal
pressure and non-strongly corrosive media, and each mechanical part will bear
different loads during use. The ability of metal materials to resist damage
under load is called mechanical properties (or called mechanical properties).
