- Industry
- Auto parts prototype processing
Yagishita Giken Co., Ltd.
The situation when interviewed
Honda R&D Co., Ltd. (Automobile Center) has delivered difficult-to-cut and high-accuracy parts for auto parts manufacturers in short delivery times, and is engaged in high-mix low-volume production in the R&D division, but the demand for quality is increasing year by year.
-
- Issues
-
Fast delivery of difficult-to-cut materials and high-accuracy parts
- Making setup change fixturing is a long process.
- With strict accuracy requirements such as surface roughness Rz 6.3 or less, the finishing process is performed by a two-step method.
-
- Implementation
-
Installed three 5-axis vertical machining centers.
Since more than 60 Okuma machine tools have been installed company-wide, we always choose the OSP control, to make it easier for the operator to use and to maintain consistency in programming
-
- Effectiveness
-
Significantly reducing the burden of setup changes and fixture making while maintaining high accuracies
- By installing 5-axis vertical machining centers, it has become possible to perform about 90% of the cutting operations in one chucking on one machine.
- If adjustments are made in the morning with Okuma's 5-Axis Auto Tuning System which automatically compensates for geometric step errors and other 5-axis machine misalignments, you can achieve step-free machining accuracy in one tuning.
