In recent years, "machining" has become widely adopted in the manufacturing field of metal processing, including copper processing. The process of cutting materials using NC machine tools known as "machining centers" is referred to as "machining." NC machine tools are machines that automatically perform processing through numerical control based on programming, and "machining centers" are those equipped with an "automatic tool changer (ATC)." When tools are set in a storage area called a tool magazine, the machine automatically changes tools according to the processing program. *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links.

Press processing is a method of changing the shape of metal by applying pressure during the manufacturing process. There are various types, including deep drawing, punching, embossing, coin rings, and extrusion. Bending processing is a type of press processing that bends metal sheets into specific shapes, allowing for various forms and angles. It can also shape three-dimensional parts and is particularly important among press processing techniques that require skill. *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links.

"Cutting processing," which is used not only for copper and metal processing but also for processing materials like resin and glass. It is known as a common processing method, but this time I will explain it in a bit more detail. Cutting processing is a method that shapes materials by removing material to achieve the desired shape. It is classified as one of the so-called removal processes. The method of "cutting" and "shaving" using tools has existed for a long time, but it is easy to understand if you consider that those tools have now been replaced by machines. *You can view the detailed content of the blog through the related links.

The process of cutting materials using various machines is called cutting processing. Cutting processing is the first step performed after purchasing steel materials, so the higher the precision of the work, the smoother the subsequent processes will be. Copper is used in various places around us, such as in cars and electronic components. Due to its softness and high thermal conductivity, it tends to stretch easily under pressure, and its high reflectivity requires caution when performing laser processing, making it one of the more difficult metals to work with. To process copper cleanly, the selection of appropriate processing methods and high skill levels are essential. *For more details about the blog, you can view it through the related links.

Among metals, copper is known for its high conductivity, which tends to result in a high adoption rate as a processing material. However, due to its high conductivity, if not properly treated, it can lead to troubles such as electric shock. Taking into account the characteristics of highly conductive copper, "insulation treatment" is used as a means to enhance safety while also improving durability. In this article, we will explain the features of insulation treatment and also touch on the details of "conductors," "semiconductors," and "insulators." *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links.

Copper is utilized in many products among metals and plays an active role in various situations. By applying a coating to copper, which is such a common material, there is a method to extend its lifespan by protecting it from scratches and corrosion. This is known as "plating treatment." Copper products can also be expected to enhance their inherent performance through plating treatment. If you are considering a request for copper processing, it is advisable to also keep plating treatment in mind. *You can view the detailed content of the blog through the related link.

Did you know that there are various methods for welding metals? Among them, "brazing," which uses melted brass as a sort of "adhesive" for welding, is frequently used as a method that does not damage the base material (the metal used for processing). So, in what situations is brazing commonly adopted? In this article, we will explain the characteristics of brazing and also introduce the differences from "soldering," which is often confused with it. *You can view the detailed content of the blog through the related links.

In previous blogs, I have touched on this several times, but how much do you know about "press processing"? Press processing is a method of manufacturing that involves sandwiching materials like copper sheets between two parts called upper and lower molds, and then cutting them out according to the shape of the mold. It is a manufacturing method suitable for mass production, starting with copper processing, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the high quality of Japan's manufacturing, which we take pride in, is built upon this foundational technology. In this blog, I will introduce some basic knowledge about press processing. *For more detailed content of the blog, please refer to the related links.

Stainless steel is a material that excels in durability and corrosion resistance, making it widely used in various fields from kitchenware to construction materials. Another significant feature is its aesthetic appeal. For instance, a kitchen featuring shiny stainless steel feels pleasant and inviting. However, even stainless steel, known for its excellent durability, can lose its original shine over time due to water stains, grease, and fine scratches. In this article, we will explain the polishing of stainless steel and how to achieve a more beautiful mirror finish. *For more detailed content, please refer to the related links.

Copper is an indispensable material for various products, including batteries and motors used in electric vehicles (EVs). However, due to its high thermal conductivity, copper is prone to deformation such as warping and bending during processing. Additionally, its high reflectivity causes issues like porosity and spatter when using conventional laser processing machines, leading to many challenges. However, advanced laser processing machines have the potential to solve these issues and achieve high-precision laser processing. *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links.
