After quenching or cold/cryogenic heat treatment, the invention does not limit the specific time of the temperature and heat preservation stage of tempering heat treatment, and can be determined by reference or experiment according to the actual established process temperature and time, the specific parameters are in accordance with the high efficiency and detection requirements, the tempering temperature is 150-550 ℃ and the heat preservation time is 1-3 h in the tempering heat treatment process. Generally, low-temperature tempering is adopted, and the low-temperature tempering heat treatment is mainly used for releasing or reducing the quenching residual stress, and the temperature range is 150-250 ℃. However, for some tool materials, including Mo, V, etc., tempering resistant or possibly secondary hardening, higher temperature tempering is employed, even with two or more stage tempering processes.
