There will be a very significant benefit in cost reduction.
At Kato Manufacturing Co., Ltd., we have significantly reduced costs by transitioning the manufacturing of bearing seal rings for industrial robots, made from cold-rolled steel plates (thickness 2.3mm), from traditional cutting machining to press forming (with only final finishing done through flat cutting, lathe processing, and polishing). Additionally, for motor covers made from stainless steel (difficult-to-machine material) with a thickness of 2.8mm used in home appliances, we have similarly utilized a counter hydraulic forming method that allows for uniform drawing with minimal thickness variation, as well as the ability to process thicker stainless steel in a single step. Furthermore, we meet stringent requirements for roundness of 0.012, concentricity of 0.15, and surface roughness of Ra1.6 through subsequent cutting processes, providing our customers with both cost reduction and high-quality precision. This is also made possible by achieving dimensional accuracy in press processing that is nearly equivalent to machining, leading to reduced processing time and labor in subsequent steps. 【Key Technologies for Press Forming】 - Precision cutting and punching technology - High-precision drawing technology - Plate forging technology - High-precision post-processing technology (plating, cleaning, barrel finishing, etc.) For more details, please contact us or download our catalog.
