Comprehensive analysis of the impact of cutting tool characteristics and application factors

As the first year of the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan”, what should the cutter industry practitioners do in 2011 and how should they do it? In the view of Luo Baihui, head of the International Association of Molds and Hardware and Plastics Industry Suppliers, during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, transforming the economic development mode will become the primary task for the development of various industries (including the tool industry). In recent years, the domestic tool industry has generally been at a low level, and the mass production of standardized products has become a major obstacle to the rapid improvement of the tool industry. With the eight years of gold development in China's machine tool industry, the tool industry has achieved unprecedented development, and the output of many companies has increased substantially, but this improvement has not relied too much on technological progress, but mainly on the cheapness of our country. Workforce based. So, can this cheap labor last? I remember that Xu Yangxing, who was the global vice president and chief technology officer of Kennametal many years ago, discussed this issue. He believes that the main purpose of most people coming out to work is to seek a better life. To live a good life, the labor compensation of laborers is indispensable. When the labor remuneration of laborers increases, if the labor productivity of enterprises does not increase, the increase of manufacturing costs becomes an inevitable result, and the market competitiveness of products is relatively reduced. "This road to development should not be the result we want." Xu Yangxing pointed out that to control the manufacturing costs and product profits while improving the labor compensation of workers, an alternative way is to improve manufacturing capacity and increase labor productivity. Make the company sustainable. Of course, changing the way the economy develops is more than just an aspect of increasing labor productivity. First, the first basic requirement for transforming the economic development mode is to insist on the strategic adjustment of the economic structure as the main direction of accelerating the transformation of economic development. To this end, the "Proposal" proposes specific measures to enhance the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry, develop strategic emerging industries, and accelerate the development of the service industry. So how do you implement this measure in the tool industry? The answer is much easier to say than to do it, from a single model of providing products to providing customers with a range of solutions from pre-production to post-production technical solutions, economic analysis, bottleneck research, and optimization of production processes. The omni-directional model transformation of products and services has transformed the tool industry into a new manufacturing industry that is both an advanced manufacturing industry in the secondary industry and a modern service industry in the tertiary industry. Second, the second basic requirement for transforming the mode of economic development is to insist on scientific and technological progress and innovation as an important support for accelerating the transformation of economic development. The "Proposal" proposes to implement the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education and the strategy of strengthening the country through talents, give full play to the role of the first productivity of science and technology and the resources of talents, enhance the ability of independent innovation, strengthen the team of innovative talents, and promote the development mainly relying on scientific and technological progress and the quality of laborers. To manage the transformation of innovation and accelerate the specific requirements for building an innovative country. From the tool industry, it is absolutely necessary to improve the ability to innovate. For many years, most of the tool products have been standard products that have been consistent for decades, such as overwhelming standard high-speed steel twist drills; or copied and copied foreign mature products, such products lack innovation, homogenization and lack of features, so The competitiveness of products is naturally worse. However, the industry must change the way of economic development, catch up with and exceed the international level, and develop innovative products is an inevitable requirement. Without innovation, we can only become followers of the market and not become leaders in the market. It is also necessary to have this ability to innovate and improve the quality and level of our managers, technicians and operators. In view of the lack of innovative ideas and innovative methods for many practitioners in the tool industry, in the past two years, industry associations have held training courses on modern tool design and manufacturing, and included the national “professional and technical personnel knowledge update project” (ie “653 project” "), for the tool industry has trained a group of talents in line with the needs of the industry. Third, another basic requirement for transforming the mode of economic development is to insist on building a resource-conserving and environment-friendly society as an important focus for accelerating the transformation of economic development. The idea is to thoroughly implement the basic national policy of conserving resources and protecting the environment, saving energy, reducing greenhouse gas emission intensity, developing circular economy, promoting low-carbon technologies, actively coping with climate change, promoting economic and social development, coordinating with population, resources and environment, and taking sustainable development. The road to energy conservation is still an important part and will continue to be a quantitative and binding indicator. This is also an important strategic direction for the tool industry. The tool is an industry that consumes a lot of resources such as tungsten, cobalt, titanium, etc. How to reduce the consumption of these resources in the whole life cycle of the tool, reduce the carbon emissions in the whole life cycle of the tool, and how to build low consumption and high capacity. The tool industry is a question worth pondering. In addition, the fourth part of the "12th Five-Year Plan" proposal of the Party Central Committee specifically put forward a strategic task of "developing a modern industrial system and improving the core competitiveness of the industry." Its direction is to transform and upgrade the manufacturing industry. Luo Baihui believes that the focus of manufacturing development is to optimize the structure, improve the quality of the varieties, enhance the supporting capacity of the industry, and eliminate backward production capacity. These development priorities are perfectly applicable to the tool. In China, the tool industry's high-speed steel twist drill, a single, century-old product, accounts for the vast majority of the industry's output value is not a happy phenomenon. The tool industry develops diversified products and achieves a certain economic scale. It is a very good choice to avoid vicious competition by developing and producing products that meet the needs of market customers in various market segments according to their own strengths and capabilities. Nowadays, all walks of life are developing new technologies and new products, which has put forward many new demands on the tool industry. How the tool industry studies the development direction and development progress of these customer technologies and develops appropriate tool products and solutions is an opportunity and a challenge for the development of the industry. If these customers' needs are well addressed, many companies will be able to achieve the goals of the central government's transformation and improvement of manufacturing, and will be able to maintain a certain level of competitiveness in the future. It is foreseeable that in the future, not only many domestic tool brands will become internationally renowned brands, but also domestic tool companies will have the opportunity and the strength to acquire well-known foreign tool brands like Geely's acquisition of Volvo, and learn from the advanced features of foreign companies. Its own technology, optimized management, and transformation of development ideas, so that China's tool industry has also entered the forefront of the world tool industry. In the metal cutting industry, there is no choice but to adopt advanced technology. Future processing needs are growing, and only advanced processing techniques can be used to meet these needs. Cutting tool technology is rapidly evolving in response to changing production demands and increasingly challenging workpiece materials. Today's mechanical processing plants need to look at their cutting tools and tool suppliers in a different way than in the past. Chris Mills, project manager for aviation tool development at Sandvik Coromant, points out that in the case of aerospace manufacturing, in order to meet the manufacturing needs of the industry for the next 20 years, the manufacturing capacity needs to be doubled on the existing basis. How can I do this? Can you simply double the number of machine tools while the machining process remains at the current level? This is almost impossible. Increasing the number of state-of-the-art machine tools means adding the same proportion of machine operators, which is unimaginable, because today's mechanical processing plants have difficulty hiring enough qualified workers to operate the machine. Therefore, the need to increase the processing capacity by a factor of two must be met by technological advancement, that is, using the existing number of cutting workers to accomplish more work. So where do these technological advances come from? Of course, including tools, they are faster and faster, higher and higher precision. However, the artifacts themselves are not developing in the same gradual way, they are basically constantly changing. Today, workpieces are not only increasingly demanding in terms of accuracy, delivery and quality, but are increasingly being manufactured using difficult-to-machine materials that have never been encountered before. These materials include titanium alloys, nickel-based alloys, and compacted graphite iron (CGI), as well as various engineering composites (in more and more applications, composites are replacing metal materials). In other words, today's workpieces are growing faster and more powerful than the machines used to cut them. In order to compensate for the gap between machine tools and workpieces, and to increase the processing capacity to meet the processing needs, in today's metal cutting industry, the most important technological advances will come from cutting tools. The role of cutting tools and tool suppliers is changing faster and faster, surpassing any other elements of the machining process. In fact, the cutting tools have changed so much that any progressive mechanical processing plant now needs to re-evaluate its concept of cutting tools. Not only do they need to study how to select a particular tool, but they also need to revisit the basic concepts that affect the entire shop tooling application. Some of these core ideas are obsolete today, as the rules for cutting tools have changed. Recently, three companies related to cutting tools have provided insights into how today's machine shops need to think differently about tooling applications. These companies include: 1 Diamond Innovations: world-leading supplier of cubic boron nitride (CBN) and polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tool materials; 2 Precision Dormer: two companies provide high efficiency A consortium of companies that drill and cut tools; 3 Sandvik Coromant: the world's number one supplier of metal cutting tools. The engineering experts at these companies have listed a number of elements that affect the cutting tool characteristics and applications today, some of which include: (1) Challenging workpiece materials. Includes alternative metal materials and difficult-to-machine alloy materials. Some of these materials are less than 1/4 of the steel, and some materials can cost as much as hundreds of dollars per pound. (2) Increasingly complex workpiece geometries. For example, thin-walled workpieces and aerospace components of complex shapes. (3) Large size workpieces. In particular, there is an increasing demand for turbines and various heavy mechanical parts. The high cost per piece of these workpieces places high demands on the machining.
