冷成型製造的 5 大優勢

As many of our customers see an uptick in demand for their products, they’re looking for ways to streamline their manufacturing processes so they can 繼續擴大規模. In fact, industry reports point to some of the fastest expansion rates in recent times — great news given that we are still in the midst of a global pandemic. One way to achieve greater efficiency right now is to partner with an 陸上冷成型製造商.冷成型製造有很多好處，包括下面提到的五個。

在 最佳質量, we’ve been cold forming for more than 60 years, and I’ve worked with many customers to lower costs, improve product quality, and educate them on other benefits of this technology.

什麼是冷成型製造？

在冷成型製造（也稱為冷鐓或冷鍛）中，金屬通過一系列鐓粗和擠壓步驟在環境溫度下形成不同的形狀。這是在一台掘進機中通過一系列工位進行的。發生這種情況時，線材毛坯的航向保持不變，因為它已重新成形。這個過程可以發生使用一個單一的裸片 簡單的緊固件 最多可使用六台沖模機加工複雜形狀。

然後，冷成型零件會增加其他操作，例如滾螺紋、修整、修整、修整和質量處理。

冷成型製造的好處是什麼？

大多數冷成型製造商都能夠通過他們的工藝實現這些優勢，但是 最佳質量 團隊是這種方法的專家，可以用它來製造 複雜的緊固件/組件，現有小直徑和大尺寸的M2-M22。

1. Speed & Efficiency

冷成型是一個快速的過程。您可以以每分鐘 350 個/零件的速度生產一個簡單、不復雜的零件，也可以選擇以每分鐘 200 個/零件的速度生產更複雜的零件。由於這是一個連續的過程，零件在每次打擊中完成。

2. 規模化生產

Because of the high speed at which the machinery will work, you can produce hundreds of millions of pieces a year–efficiently handling, full-scale production, and high-demand periods for original equipment manufacturers.

3. Strength & Durability

冷成型可最大限度地發揮產品的冶金性能，從而保持零件的完整性，使其更堅固耐用。

4. 降低成本/減少浪費

The yield of raw material is fantastic. There are no excess machine shavings or scrap with cold forming because you’re forming the part in its near-net state. The only scrap would be piercing or trimming of the shape, making this process environmentally friendly as well.

該過程還可以將不同的直徑形成為接近淨形狀或直徑，從而消除了接近的機加工操作。某些零件可以從機加工工藝轉換為冷成型工藝，從而降低成本並提高零件完整性。

5. 更好的再現性

零件在極其一致的工具內部形成，從而實現高度的可重複性。

冷成型的典型應用

Cold forming makes the most sense for anywhere you need to fasten two things together. This process offers great versatility – including the ability to produce complex shapes.

公差、材料和零件長度

可以在以下材料上進行冷成型製造：

• 碳素鋼
• 不銹鋼
• A286鋼
• 銅、黃銅
• 鋁
• 鈦
• 各種合金材料

根據所用的幾何形狀和材料，經驗豐富的冷成型製造商可以達到數千英寸以內的公差。這個過程可以使直徑小於 2 毫米到 48 毫米，長度超過 300 毫米。

選擇冷成型製造合作夥伴

出於這個原因，許多人選擇尋找擁有必要設備和內部經驗的製造合作夥伴。冷成型需要製造商可能沒有財力購買或維護的專用設備。

You should also look for a partner that can work with your specific requirements. You’ll get the biggest bang for your buck from a manufacturer who can truly understand what the application requires and has the engineers to design and manufacture the part within your tolerances.

There are many variables that come into play when it comes to developing a part. These include material selection, part design for cost-effectiveness, heat treating options, and platting/coatings to meet applications. I always recommend that our customers involve our engineering team during the product design stage as each of these stakeholders needs to work together. Without application and manufacturing expertise, it’s easy to overlook small details that can add significant cost or reduce quality throughout the life of the part.
