Abstract
A die comprises metal-rich sections which form an inner wall and an outer wall of the die, respectively. Gradient sections are disposed adjacent to the metal-rich sections, respectively. Further, a ceramics-rich section is disposed between the gradient sections. A punch comprises an inner ceramics-rich section, a gradient section, and an outer metal-rich section. In the die, the composition ratio of metal gradually decreases from the metal-rich sections to the ceramics-rich section. Similarly, in the punch, the composition ratio of the metal gradually decreases from the metal-rich section to the ceramics-rich section.
