Abstract

This study discusses the influence of quenching, normalizing, and annealing to changes in hardness, tensile, and microstructure of materials tool steel AISI 01 after the material undergo heat treatment process. This heat treatment process includes an initial warming of 600° C and a 5-minute detention time, followed by heating to an austenisation temperature of 850°C. After that a different cooling process, including annealing process, normalizing and quenching oil SAE 40. Tests performed include tensile, hard, and microstructure with shooting using SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope). This is done to see the effect of different heat treatment and cooling process. The result of this research is difference of tensile test value, hard, and micro structure from influence of difference of each process. The quenching process obtains the highest tensile and hard values followed by the normalizing process, annealing, and the lowest is in the starting material, this is because the initial material does not undergo heat treatment process. The resulting microstructure is pearlit and cementite, the difference seen from the shape and size of the grains. The larger the grain size, the greater the hardness.
