Challenges
The geometry of the helical cutter and its deformation impose stringent requirements on the material’s ductility, strength, and surface quality.
Solutions
By synergistically optimizing materials and processes, we tailor the pre‑treated wire to seamlessly integrate with continuous cold‑forming operations.
Value
Replacing conventional turning with near-net‑shape forming to enhance material utilization and enable high‑volume production.
Material and Process Validation
The material solution must be jointly confirmed in consideration of part geometry, cold-forming operations, deformation levels, heat treatment, surface finishing, and service conditions. Final technical specifications shall be determined by drawing reviews, trial‑production testing, and the order’s technical agreement.
