However, these very properties, which make it a bulletproof barrier, represent a significant challenge for mechanical processing. How, then, can it be processed while maintaining its ballistic integrity?<\/p><p data-path-to-node=\"1,1\">Unlike conventional structural steels, Armox is primarily optimized to absorb the impact energy of a projectile through a combination of high hardness and controlled toughness. Consequently, the method of its technological processing has a fundamental impact on the final ballistic properties. <strong>In the CNC machining and EDM wire cutting of Armox armor steel, the goal is
